Battle for the Black Lagoon

#1 Post by monsterjones »

#1 in a series I plan to create with our pal, Indy Jones versus all kinds of resin & vinyl monster maddness!
(Splish Splash Creature) (J. Laudati) with custom base and Aurora Creature idol head!

Great idea... And great work as well!!!
The idol head really adds to the design.

Clever, VERY clever idea Bill! The "Creature" head idol is a brilliant little "hidden in plain sight" jewel. What is the Indy figure from? Was it printed?

LOVE IT!!! :drool2:

Awesome idea, very cool work.

Pleading for a lover's fee.
