I have been having a blast getting to know the Monster Kolor paint system since this summer, experimenting with all sorts of crazy finishes and pearl effects, but I have been itching to get back to matte finishes and more ‘model’ sprays. I went for a vintage feel on this guy with flat colors and silver, but couldn’t help but use a metallic color on the spines. With a matte finish, the pearls give off this neat iridescence that I was really happy with on the Argus, without being overwhelming.
NOW with better photos.

Super 7 is holding a show on January 29th and I was asked to participate. The rules were Super 7 or Gargamel toys, so I submitted the “Slick” mini Hedorah and another mini I’ll post tomorrow, along with these two that I whipped up, loosely inspired by Little Shop of Horrors. In this version, Audrey’s boyfriend the dentist turns into a robot and teams up with Audrey II the monster to kill Seymour and then they elope.
Update: The figures from the show are available now on the Super7 site! Looks like everyone has now sold! Thanks for your support.

The Max Toy pocket figures were sculpted by Gargamel way back when and predate the minis by a few years. There’s a Maxx and a Xam released in clear red vinyl as either keychains or necklace charms, and the sculpts are alright, but really blown away by the new mini line. I decided to paint up my pockets and use them as zipper-charms on my backpack!

Gargamel mini based on a bootleg kaiju sculpt. Painted featuring Monster Kolor ‘Rolok’ colors as a test piece, which dry flat and have some more ‘stuff’ in them, so they don’t need sealer. The claws and details were painted with other MK colors and glossed, and the shiny and matte effect looks really neat on this guy.

This mini sculpt is based on the very rare vintage bootleg fullsize sculpt of one of the Somg Monster forms. I love the proportions and the stance, and the figure has some great texture.
