cpspoogie Posted February 22, 2019 Author Share Posted February 22, 2019 Working on Dracula. He was missing his ring so I made a new one from scrap styrene. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpspoogie Posted February 23, 2019 Author Share Posted February 23, 2019 And here’s the Count, but not finished. Since this is a restoration of a 1962 original, there was heavy glue on the front and back pieces of the cape. I forgot to trim that off after I stripped the model and separated the parts. The end result was a significant gap at his shoulders that I didn’t like. I fixed that with some Miliput and will repaint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next one I’ll use a new brush and way less paint for the dry brushing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankenstein was the first in 1961. Later came Dracula, The Mummy, The Wolfman, The Creature and several others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
