Superb work Bill, really captures the box art beautifully!
The glow effect is very effective, is that luminous paint?

Cheers,
Paul

Yes...fluorescent paint goes perfectly with the 60's theme and DOES rock under the black light. I am gonna do more of these Aurora Tribute kits in this fashion.
Frightnin' Lightnin' at its fullest! Thanks gents!
