My daughter came to visit during the Christmas break. She has little time/room to model in the dorm so she asked to build this ugly mojo. It's a Moebius creature kit that I have inherited until I can ship it back to her.

 

 

 

 

She chose to hand paint it all with MM enamels.

GREAT PAINTING!!!

 

Love the Eyes...

[Agent G]

Thanks guys!

 

Derrick she used Tamiya clear paints. The eyes are just hollow domes with the pebble finish molded inside. I let her rock and roll and that's what she came up with.

 

Danno she's a nursing student so Goodness knows what she's learning! I do know she scored all A's the first semester. Babygirl's been building since she was seven.

That is really neato!

 

How does it compare in size to a Testors spray can?

[Agent G]

Chuck I'll post a pic tomorrow, but a hobby rattle can will fit inside the pincers. The top of the can lid is about equal to the top of the eyes.

 

It's a good size beastie!

Awwww, the standard by which all things are measured by. 

 

She did a fantastic job, i'm impressed and you seem very proud of her (not just cause she builds with plastic)

I'd have a hard time letting her take it home..

That's fascinating. Much bigger than I thought. Hard to believe it's that big and brush painted. I love the technique under the abdomen. Lots of artistic expression.

How tall is it completely? You'd think it'd be hard ta find a box big enough to ship it in! Looks great though! Missy's talents are VERY good!!!
