Edgar Allan Poe - a resin rarity!

[Tim Casey]

I picked this up recently from CultTVMan's shop; it now occupies a "WOW" space on my shelf:








The back wall is scratch built because I just can't leave well enough alone!

More info and pics can be found here:

Enjoy! And go build a model! (And stay away from the opium - look what it did to Poe!)

Nice find and fantastic build up. The back wall really enhances the kit.

Love your website and photo skills as well.

Even though Postimages is still giving us problems the photos on your site are great.

Wonderful job on the Poe kit Tim.

Wonderful build of The Master of Horror. I agree that the background wall - Masterfully done I might say - really gives it a "cozy" living room aura as he pens his next line ... takes it to another level!!!

That looks great. Pretty quick turn-around as well, especially with the nice scratch-built addition.
I remember seeing it when Cult had it.

Thanks for the kind words, guys.

...Postimages is still giving us problems ...

Do we use Postimages because putting photos directly on the website takes more server space and we pay by the gigabyte? Postimages drives me nuts sometimes, but if it's cheaper, I'm all for it! I'm a skin-flint!

Its FREE actually. [And so am I - I mean I'm also a skin-flint! ]

This is so nice! You really captured the atmosphere of the era of Poe.

I agree beautifully done, but researching for the Gallery I found it listed as a John Dennett sculpt for Moohead models in 1:12 scale. I also found one done by Steven lee "ignatz" and added his as well.

You guys know EVERYTHING. It takes all the mystery out of life...

I know Scott did produce it, but there was someone else who produced it as well.
It was one of those odd situations where two people actually had the rights to the kit.

Very cool piece with an even better paint job. Awesome work Tim!

Superb work, it's great that this influential actor is remembered like this!

Writer, actually. I don't think he was involved in the theater.

Funny thing is, Johns Wilkes Booth - the actor who assasinated Abraham Lincoln - looks like Poe:



In my mind, I always conflate the two of them.

I can see it, but Poe - in the few photos of him - looks much sadder.

Very cool.

The man who collected Poe.

The window is really cool--it reminds me of the tv show Vincent Price did where he was reading "the Sphinx" and looking out the window.
By coincidence i have a Price reading of "The Gold Bug" playing on my computer.
