T.C. Quist is a fictional werewolf and a secondary antagonist featured in The Howling film series. Played by actor Don McLeod, he appeared in the 1981 film The Howling. T.C. was one of the Quist siblings who lived at the Colony. Like many of the other members of the community (as well as his family), T.C. was a werewolf.T.C. later had his arm chopped off with a hatchet by Terry Fisher and was then killed when he was shot by silver bullets.
TC is a 3 piece resin kit by Gillman Studios. The kit is very clean with no bubbles or pinholes and two minor seam line remnants. Clean up too less than a half hour - yes I always take my time when the seam remnant is in the hair. Not having seen the movie in a while, I did a search to get another look at the character. This was a good pic as I also get his eye color as well. Eyes are always problematic.
Now it's on to the primer and base coat. Watching a few videos by Groundeffected, I saw he makes the topside of the skin a purple pink, and the underside a red. So I tried it.
After that the Flesh went on but didn't look right. While thinking about it, I dove into the base. The front appeared to be planking with some silhouettes, and the back was some boulders.
Thinking about the skin again, I think the first mix was too dark, next time I'll lighten it up. So another coat of Flesh went on, with a little Ivory mixed in. Now to fill in a little more of the details - eyes teeth, shirt and the base coat for the fur collar. I was planning on making a light colored collar - which is all wrong. I'll be switching up the shirt and collar colors, but that for next time. Thanks for looking.
