| Kit Building Diary 2004 |
| I decided to keep a Photo Diary, of the day to day process of building, more than one kit at a time, you will probably notice I dont work to any set plan or routine,I tend to just go with the flow, dependant on my mood at the time, I hope you enjoy this project, and hopefully it will give some insight into how I work and the methods i use, in pursuit of my beloved hobby thank you for looking.

| Dracula was last seen heading off to look for voluptuous maidens to prey upon, so its time for another hairy horror to hog the limelight, this time ups its an oldie but very goodie, bowens werewolf based on Frazetta artwork, this was a limited edition, this piece being #97 so is a sought after kit unfortunatley this has resulted in inferior crappy re-casts popping up, these just arent worth having IMHO, and should be avoided at all costs, As can be seen I have glued all parts, but there is a fair amount of putty work needed around the Joints, before I can start to sling paint around,check back for regular updates, any questions or querys, contact me here markatherton4@yahoo.com |

| Dry brushed fur, first with anitas coffee, then folk art plaid, I was going to add greys but I like the reddish brown so decided to leave it as is, I will start either the base or detailing the features of the werewolf next, dependant on my mood, markatherton4@yahoo.com |

| The base is now done I dry brushed with greys browns and greens before adding the skulls which were basecoated bleached bone and washed with burnt umber, a nice little touch on the base is the little girls dolly in amongst the werewolf victims bones, very sick. markatherton4@yahoo.com |
