Very cool, but that's man-thing
Helena is here at hand;
And the youth, mistook by me,
Pleading for a lover's fee.
Shall we their fond pageant see?

I think we should leave his man-thing out of this. (Some of us never grow up do we?) I would have gone with "hulking man-beast" myself. Whatever the classification, lovely build. Could he be, he says with some trepidation, moister?

Beautiful build, Joe. Was this a WF acquisition?

Thanks BA!
No, I bought and painted this kit a long time ago.
I just finally got around to a creating a better base for it, and touching up the paint job a bit.

This bayou beast sculpt is one of my favorites, and I have 4 of these kits.
I have one bash currently in progress where I am adding wings, tail, and swapped the head out with a 3d printed balrog head.
I plan to bash next one into a dino/dragon-man , and not sure yet what do with the last one.
