    Curse of the Werewolf

    Hammer's Curse of the Werewolf is my favorite horror film that the British Studio did and my favorite werewolf mover ever.

    This one has been on my workbench for a while. I did a "work in progress" thread that can be found here,
    http://megomuseum.com/community/show...f-the-Werewolf

    I wasn't happy with different aspects of the figure and I kept shoving him aside for different projects. Finally I just decided to finish him of "as is". As it turns out, I'm really happy with him and the way he came out.

    Curse of the Werewolf



    Head is an original sculpt from next2thelastmohican painted by me
    Body is a Zica Type-S
    Repro CHiP's boots are from CAT
    Clothes are from CTVT
    Hands are CTVT werewolf hands
    Ribbon & frill is from the craft store
    Box by The Toyroom



    The shirt comes from the CTVT Ralph Malph collection. The frill was dyed with some tea to match the off-white of the shirt. It was way too white off the roll and needed to be toned down a bit. It's stuck on there forever with some fabric tape.



    The pants are from a CTVT Mad Clown that I got for free for spending way too much money. They are on backwards on purpose.





    The head is one of N2LM's better sculpts. I added a few things, like the hair on the bridge of the nose. I think it's also Hammer's best make-up effect. I really wasn't happy with it at first at wanted to do a repaint but it grew on me the last month and decided to stick with it. I'm glad I did, It certainly would have looked different than the painting style I have now. Not better or worse, just different. There was a question about the blue eyes but I kinda like them and besides, I already have a brown-eyed Chaney Wolf Man. I think the blue eyes really jump out at you.





    The fur was made from acrylic gel molding paste and applied directly to the upper torso, arms & hands and was painted the same grey color as the head.



    The Wolf Man vs. the Werewolf?



    Nah, they're drinkin' buddies!

    I think Chaney needs a repaint! He was one of the first customs I did.



    The box is a series of three Hammer Horror film boxes made by The Toyroom. So there will be a Christopher Lee Dracula & Frankenstein's Monster to come in the near future. Thanks Anthony!

    And thank you for looking!
