The fleshtones are spot on and the burnt flesh is just right aswell as the eyes.Really great paintup so far on Karloff Franky.Is this the big one KitKong put out or the one Monsters from the woods did while back?

Looking great so far! Not really much to critique, as you seem to be spot on with the details.

Thank you all for the compliments. Yes this is the 1/4 scale Frankenstien from kitkong. for the money it is a super deal. I hope to have it finished this weekend, in between the kits I have to rehab for a friend. Since I have no talent for taking photos I hope have my "completed" videographed (is that a word) like David Fisher did with his MM series. Thats the plan atleast.

Again thank you for your kind words here is another piece that is very close to being complete

Both the BOF and SOF look quite good. Besides finishing the sleeves on SOF, what's left to do?

A little progress, I need to fine tune the weathering a bit more. These kits are so good. Hope to get better pictures later.

what was the quality of the bride and groom like? mine had loads of problems weeping from not being fully cured, loads of splits and cracks from being cast to thinly, as for the bride that was a blatent reject it had clearly fully broken to pieces at the casters which they just poorly put back together and smeared resin over it

I agree with everyone. Great work!
But the monster's shirt was a much darker black than the suit.
And the eyes look blue. Karolff had brown eyes.
Minor details that don't change the overall the terrific job.

Looks great, nothing to change except maybe the eyes to brown. Great work.
