      This Kit, was out of production for several years, but has now been re-issued, By Keith Cousins. of Keithy boys Kits, Sculpted by Dave Lewis, this is a two piece kit, the figure is one piece the bas the other, is based on the Transformation scene, in which Actor David Naughton, first turns into the Lycanthrope, in the Classic American in Werewolf. this kit realy captures, the agony endured during this first change, and the Likeness, to the scene in the movie is spot on, this would be an ideal first kit for any one new to the hobby, no clean up required, just a wash in soapy water, then it is ready for painting, the Figure, was base coated with Tamya Flat flesh, when this dried, I airbrushed, the fur, with Sepia artists ink, again when dry I shaded the flesh tones with pastels, then highlighted with a lighter shade of the flesh tone, the fur was then Dry brushed, with Anitas Coffee, and dove Grey, the fangs and claws, are based bleached bone, then, weathered with sepia, the base is just various shades of blue, to look like the carpet has been walked on, a nic Little touch is the rug that Keith provided with the kit it adds a nice finishing touch, I know that Keith has put quite a lot into getiing this kit back into circulation, aand I hope he will be able to reap the benefits for his efforts.
