Moebius' Frankenstein Finale

 Back again with the finale of the Frankenstein build. 

Painting the monster was a series of back and forths between a flesh color and a pale green. What I also did, with a very thin brush was to paint in some veining and bruises, tho they can't really be see with my crappy photography.  The suit and shoes was a dirty black, and the shirt was a brown.  

Since I got the kit, I really didn't like the way the doorway opened to nothing. I had no intention of creating the appearance of another room, so I took some sheet styrene, painted black, and covered over the door opening. 

With that he was done. Thanks for looking.

In case anyone needs to see the back of the door. :)

Moebius' Frankenstein

 This kit was bought when my local model club was having a contest based on kits that originated with Aurora. I remember building the Frankie as well as almost all the other monsters that Aurora released.Then I come to find out that No, this is a new kit. Oh well it didn't really matter as I was one of the judges for the contest and I wouldn't have included my kit in the judging anyway.  Can't go to waste, let's build it. 

The kit is very nice with a big stone castle wall and door as a backdrop. The face was a decent sculpt, but I went with Escape Hatch Hobby's Frankenstein replacement head. Seems I didn't take the "before" pic so here's some parts glued up with the original head.

 The wall/door was also very well sculpted - 

 To change things up I started painting the background/base first. This is just the base coating a lot more paint as well as weathering has to go on...

 Check back.

2022 Year in Review

 It's that time of year again. Time to look back and see what I did over the year. While not as many as I've done in the past, I feel it's a respectable amount of kits off the pile and onto the shelves. This year I also have a few OOAK sculpts that I've done. Thanks for looking.
