Just thought I'd throw in a COLOR still from this BLACK & WHITE movie. (Actually I was FAR more interested in Julie Adams than the Creature.) Loved your hands, Aaron.

Just how old is this mold I wonder?   Lots of filler needed?

Manny, Millairjunkie, and BbrownIII

Thanks guys. This was a lot of fun to paint. (The build? Not so much.) It's nice once and while to not have to stress about having the correct color. As long as it's green, I figure it's right.

Cheers, Aaron

Ditto

Not my kind of thing either, but that's impressive & scary!

I say scary because that was the first "horror" film I was allowed to see as a kid & to be honest I was bricking it when I saw it & didn't want to go to sleep that night - you never know what might appear at the bedroom window, so I kept the curtains open & watched out for it!!

Damn, uhhh, darn Aaron... Stick out tongue

You got some skills, man! Creature figs aren't typically my thing, but the finish on that is sweet.

Hey all,

I just finished the Revell reissue of the Monogrtam rebox of the old Aurora model of the Creature (From the Black Lagoon) as a gift for a friend.The finish is all airbrushed except for dry-brushing and the eyes and mouth. Comments and critiques welcome.

Cheers, Aaron
