Name of Build: FRANKENSTEIN
Kit manufacturer: Monogram re-issue of 1960s Aurora kit
Scale: 1/8
Description
This was the late '80s/early '90s Monogram Illuminators re-release of the Aurora kit from the 60s.
This one was molded in a translucent Fluorescent orange plastic. I didn't care about that. I just wanted to build a model that I missed out on with the original release. Built straight out of the box. A lot of seam filling/sanding, and detail re-etching, but it was all fun.
Then the real fun, the painting. Sprayed a flat black base coat, and then hand-painted, and dry brushed all the subsequent colors. Acrylics, and enamels.
