Gorgeous build Jon! Super sculpt - and I LOVE the changeable heads! Its like getting 2 sculpts in one - just switch 'em out every so often and you'll never get tired looking at it!

You'll have one ecstatically happy client!!! :D

PS - Check out where I'm heading with my "Kong on Empire State" build - I revealed a major "addition" I am making to the kit last night on my thread. :wink:

I'll comment on your build in a few minutes after I have a chance to watch the video.

Ok. Video watched.
First, I love all the color you manage to pack into these kits, while still keeping it cohesive.
That's why I always watch the videos first. When you are rotating the kit around, you can really see all the subtle color shifts, and it is amazing.
Also love how white the claws are on this one.You still have the fading at the base of the nails, but a large portion are really white, and it contrasts nicely with the rest of the kit.
I think I like the closed mouth best. Gives him much more attitude.

The only down side for me, is the suit design. I actually love the look of the 62 from every angle, except straight on. The straight on view makes him look like a no-neck pin-head. Especially with the eyes being so close together like that.
That said, even there, you managed to give him so much color in the chest and belly area. Very visually interesting.
