    Apeonaut Cornelius


    This is a new one I'm proud of... resin cast and repaint (why waste original heads lol) with customized spacesuit. Paper copy of card Mego73's working on for me...I know it says Zira but was too excited to wait for cards. He does awesome work and keeps you in the loop the entire process. Here's another pic...

      Cool figure... Looks a lot like one that was on the "other" Mego forum quite awhile ago...

                            Here's a more direct view of the card that still needs work, especially on the water. Also I was wondering if using a view of NYC (I needed a city with a shoreline) when they actually landed in California would be okay. But then, I remembered, I am supposed to be channeling 1974 Mego and accuracy is not needed. A Mego artist in Mego headquarters in NYC would probably have used a familiar NYC landscape (the kids can't tell the difference). Yes, many of the elements on this are from the Escape box, but I had to rebuild it for the card because I didn't keep the box file in layers.
