| 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.

| As Scully disapears mysteriously into the mist, she is replaced by a pretty rare two figure vynil kit from Argonauts, here we have Dracula in his Wolf form putting a move on one of the Female characters From Coppolas Excellent Dracula Movie, I have decided to glue the kits together bfore painting with this being vynil and prone to warping as you can probably see I have a few seams to fill with putty, once this is done I will use a combination of airbrush for the Lady, and hand brush for the wolf, as I dont want to be over dependent on masking, and will use only water based Colour, more soon M A |
