That looks great!
Don't normally comment on the Kong stuff, but I do love the Skull Island version.
I really do like those red eyes. Nice artistic touch. Love the colors and the shading.

Gonna be taking some inspiration from this when I start on my kit from John Diaz. It's a little smaller and less stylized, but I think is more screen accurate.

I have the Wayne Hansen one too, not built but primed, that I was going to sell, it is 17 inches tall. I did not know John did one, do you have a photo of what it looks like built?

That is the Wayne one. John Diaz does the casting and the marketing. Think the most recent company name is Resin Realities.

Right. I may go ahead and build mine soon too if nobody buys it.

I am hoping to prime mine sometime this week so I can at least think about painting it this winter.

Geez Jon :shock:

I haven't watched the video yet (still closing in on the end of the latest MCTV video), but (from the pictures alone) . . . that sculpt combined with your paintwork - stunning work =D> =D> =D>

SO glad you are one of the folks that has stuck by the Clubhouse and continues to share here :beer:

I like it - a dynamic "I'm King" pose. Well done!
