I was going to do color but since it was filmed in Black n White I will be painting it the way you see on film.

Good choice.

You and I are having discussions in two threads in two different forums.

Nice! Your reference pic is a good one for this.

Decided since I'm too busy for the next two weeks I would finish tonight so here are the results. Will maybe post a short video and another photo in daylight tomorrow but for now here you go.

Here's a quick video I made to show it off in motion and in daylight to capture some of the details. It was recorded on my phone and not my normal camera but still it picks up the details.

Wow looks better in video.
Good job.
Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake. Beautiful piece, but whenever I hear it, I think of Dracula.

Thank you Centurion! I really appreciate the compliment I worked hard on it and still an amateur at painting. Yeah it is a classic. I played the opening credits to the mummy and its funny they play that song during the credits. I always think of Dracula also when it comes on. But The Mummy plays it too.

Oh I know that's not easy. I've tried and I can't paint if my life depended on it. LOL!

A 1/4 bust of the Mummy and of Frankenstein's monster would compliment this very well. A little tribute to Karloff!

They made one from the first film but think I will wait for the future of a bride version and son version. Debating what the next one I should get before winter completely hits here and I cannot go outside to prime.

Did SS ever so an Invisible Man PF with the wraps and goggles that the character wears in the movie? Has any other company done a statue of the Invisible Man in that sort of garb?

Oh man, I wish!
I could mistaken, but I believe a 1/6 figure but not PF.

Sideshow only made a 1:6 figure of the Invisible Man.

Correct!

I'm telling you... someone steps in and makes all these classic monsters in 1/4, movie-like poses, beautiful paint, and I'm broke.
