Great work as usual PJ.

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

I entered my guillotine in the Region 11 IPMS show this last Sept. 20-21 in Orlando, Florida under the Miscellaneous Category and was surprised with a 1st place Gold, Best Out of the Box and Best Miscellaneous Subject. I wasn't expecting this but was humbled by the outcome.

Thanks goose. That is a really cool idea. I'm not certain about the Guillotine's scale as I have read both 1/18 and 1/16.

That looks great! I really love the wood grain finish. Now as for figures to give it some context... perhaps some French Revolutionaries or perhaps on a lighter note, Pugsley and Wednesday Addams...

 
LOL. Thanks stik and as Gomez Addams would have said "Capital idea old man"

Good thing Morticia isn't on-line to agree in French.
We all know what Gomez's response would be..................Whistling

Ha! Smile

And Gomez might say in reply: "  ¡Olé!  "

Just looking at the Polar Lights Munsters Living Room kit.
I'm not certain if the kit's 1/16 scale figures would be obviously out of scale compared to the 1/18th scale Guillotine kit, but may be one option if you decide you want at least one figure with the Guillotine and happen across the Munster Living Room kit at a very good price ..................the Lily Munster figure's pose in the kit kinda reminds me of a French Revolution Tricoteuse knitting by the Guillotine....................Wink
This is what Wikipedia says about the Tricoteuse:

That is a fine job on the wood grain painting, very realistic.

Thanks goose. I read somewhere it's 1/18th or so. It certainly makes an unusual display.
