Just finished up my Billiken Frankie, after trying to get one for years. I consider it one of the finest sculpts out of all the 1/6 th scale kits. Decided to go with the pale flesh color dead look instead of the classic green. Tell me what you think.

You did a fantastic job on it! Looks like it steped right out of the page of a magazine.

Aside from IMO it needs some graveyard dirt dry brush on the boots and lower pant legs it is VERY cool. Nice job.

Gasport

The BEST [IMO] version of the Karloff monster to ever be produced and you TOTALLY did it justice! BREATHTAKING!!

Looks really good. Billiken did a great line of kits.

Mord

I completely agree, this is probably the very best Frankenstein figure ever produced and you have honored it with an incredible paint-job. Great work!!!

Thanks for all the compliments. I'm in the process of building a base for Frank to stand on. In the meantime I thought I would post one more closeup pic of his face, just to show what a great sculpt this really was. It's Alive! It's Alive!!

you did a very fine job.
i'm not a good painter, so i have someone airbrushing mine as we speak,
hope to have my billiken franky on display at the end of the month.
i have the horizon franky also, i love them both.

It's about 13 and a quarter inches. Sorry, didn't mean to eavesdrop.

no no mord, its an old post i dug out so i didnt have to start YET ANOTHER post for one of my millions of questions haha, thank you mord for the answer, and thank you pongo for showing me a great model once again!

That is just beautiful pongo. Billiken made the best kits, hands down IMO! I wish i had gotten more of them back in that late 80s/early 90s when they were cheap!
Crazy am I? We'll see if I'm crazy or not!
