Anyone who has visited my site on a regular, basis, will be aware, that I am an absolute, Wolfman nut, of all the Universal classic Monsters, Wolfman is my absolute favourite, I have more kits related to this subject than any other, so imagine my absolute, Joy, when I first heard of this superb lifesize, hollow resin bust, Sculpted by Alex Oliver, and produced, by Robb Rottundi, of Needfull things, Robb knew I would want this and sent it to me as soon as they where produced, he went out of his way to make sure I got it, I am becoming, very selective, in who I buy kits from Lately, Robb is one of the very few, along with Jayco, Diceman, Forbidden Zone, and Killer, who I will deal with, all the above produce there own kits, and the quality of service I have recieved from them all is exemplary, Now what can I say about this bust, well just look at the pics, I dont need to say any more, if you are a horror, or universal, or wolfman fan, then you will definately want this piece. For the paint scheme, after a coat of primer, I airbrushed, tamya flat flesh, then, I sprayed various shades, of Brown Artists inks , for the fur, when I had the basic fur colour how I wanted it, I started, dry brushing, same again once I was happy, I went in with oils, to shade, the skin tones, I feel now that I went in to heavy, and I need to lighten up the skintones, (see we all make mistakes)
the shirt is Midnight Blue, dry brushe with medium blue, and the buttons, are metallic blue. I think you can probably guess that this one is now well up at the top of my favourites list, if you would like to get your paws on one of these Fellas, Contact robb, here is the link, take a look at his other great kits while you are there,.
