Famous monsters of Filmland has spawned a lot of great kits based on the covers and ADS. Any favorites of yours or kits you have done paint ups you would like to post?
I am working on this two headed Ogre aka Galligantus

Very cool kit!
I'm not aware of any FM cover kits, though. I'd love to see some!

WHOA!
Is that plaque still available for sale, and if it is could you please post a link if you know it.
I subscribed to Famous Monsters for years in the early '70s, it was my introduction to the world of sci-fi and Old Time horror pictures!

I painted a Creature bust
a la Gogos and FM of F
I don't know that I'd ever try this style again. I did it because I had this bust lying around that I got for $25 so why not...
