Beautiful.
I spotted the purple right off. Really gives it a great pop and adds some life.
I noticed the darker claws right off as well. Really gives it more of a nasty look.

Love the look of your kit too!

Excellent interpretation of GMK. The subtle purple hue contrasts the beauty of the design, with the scariness of the character, not to mention his royalty.

I've always admired Takashi's sculpting style and the same goes for your work Jon.

This latest build is great, and the older diorama - well - you certainly DO have tremendous talent!

Great pics & video too.

Thanks (as always) for sharing my friend.
