Recent Builds, Glow Dracula & The Penguin.

Todd was kind enough to post the photos of the Drive-In Scenes models that I painted for him but I also recently finished these two kits.

AURORA Glow In The Dark, Dracula.

I'm not much of a DC comic fan, but that Penguin looks nice.

That Dracula though. That is just sweet!
Love the way you left glow, but did a full blown paint job on the rest of the kit.
That cape looks like real cloth. And the details on that pendant are outstanding.
Not to mention how the whole over-all look just seems so spot on.

Thanks, Tay.
I'm not a big fan of comics in general but I LOVE the Batman 66 TV show.
I also think that this series is some of the best plastic kits ever produced.
(jut my opinion) Naturally, AURORA Monsters are the very best.

Always enjoy your paint color selection and photography. Moebius has been doing a great job with the Batman TV series kits; can never get enough of the classic Dracula with the classic Dracula face. I wonder if Revell actually destroyed the face in the mold with its repop a few years ago.

Great job, as always, Mike. Love the glow Dracula. Thanks for posting the "glow" pictures. I was impressed with how well the bats glow and still look real in natural light.

Dracula looks fantastic, but then your work on all the glow in the dark kits is top notch! I'm not a superhero / villain model fan, but your work on them is also excellent!
