magicmustang Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 (edited) Got this in yesterday. Quick build. Had to rework the back half piece of the head as it wasn't molded right. Usually don't use the bases. Goes with the other monsters. Been wanting to do this for years since I messed them up as a kid.

Tcoat Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 These monster kits are so cool and nostalgic! Have you ever considered giving them a quick dark wash? It makes these large scale figures come alive (well not literally thank goodness) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use Citadel washes Nuln oil for black (in that example) or Agrax Earthshade for a dark brown. Just slap it on over a gloss coat and let it dry. It will fill in the lines of the detail but leave very little colour on the raised parts. Just experiment a bit. I think pretty much any commercially made shade or panel line wash will do the same. I also use tinted Future Floor Wax as a wash but you can't get it anymore. The brown on Wolfman and black on Drac's face and the Creature would really make them pop.
