[RCMerchant]

RC they still mkake vampi model kits, but jeezuzz Keeriiist the cost...

Oh yeah. I ain't gonna be buying no $100 or more kits. Hell-I'll go $30.
Back in the day, and Aurora 'Glow' monster kit was $1.50. We used old Paint -By-Number paint from my sisters kittens sets.
The glue we used teenagers would huff on purpose. We just got high because we made kits in the winter after we got some at Christmas.

100$ kit?!  HA!  Good thing I didn't link to the price,  you might be meeting bela lugosi in person now if I had...

Yeah- they ask stupid prices. People with more money than sense buy stuff like that. I'm on SSI !
What's that Clint Eastwood saying?

"A man's got to know his limitation's"!

The next one I do, I think is gonna be the Aurora Creature from the Black Lagoon. I always loved that one.

I had all four of the easier to find monsters in mobiles kits - AURORA - except that one... I only had an original box for that one!  All four of those old model kits are now sold along with most of my monster toys.  I did not have KING KONG'S THRONESTER or GODZILLA'S GO CART!

I'm retired. I get a pay check. I pay my bills. I buy food.
I buy a book or a model once a month. WTF. It's gonna be a long winter in Michigan. We got our first snowfall today!

OK! I got the kit in the mail! I got a lot of Testors paint in the mail! I bought brushes and glue!
I have the Dracula figure painted. I did the small detail with colored marker.
I tinted Bela's lines in the face light blue. I didn't paint the face because the kit is already a sickly white.
It's coming out good!

Which kit?

I  had a just about every Jurassic Park when they came out.  The sculptures were pretty good, but I was a total novice when it came to painting them. Don't have them anymore.  Just been lost to time.

Now a days I think I'd like to learn some 3D printing.  I could give it another chance as well as making my own creations.

Dracula's Dragster is done!





I got the Aurora King Kong kit in the mail Tuesday!

[RCMerchant]

I think after Kong I'm gonna buy the Polar Lights repo of the BRide of Frankenstein. Tiana likes that movie. She asked me if they have a Bride kit- I said-"Yes!"
She bought me some brown, green and peach colored paint. Kong is gonna be black.  With red lips and nostrils. And, just for the hell of it, red pupils! Like he's p**sed!

[RCMerchant]

I finished the Kong figure! Looks good. I'll finish this bad boy when I sober up! 

[RCMerchant]

the Kong model is finished! I'll ask sweetie to take a picture of it.
Godzilla is next!

[RCMerchant]

Here's Kong!


I'm working on Godzilla.

[Allhallowsday]

BELA, You did a good job on those!

[RCMerchant]
