Geometric Designs Creature Resin Kit

Creature From The Black Lagoon
Geometric Designs (2004)
1/8th Scale

So amazing!!!
Sculpted by the talented James Groman.


This is an extremely difficult kit to build.
Creech is only supported by his left hand
and tip of the claw on the right foot.
I actually had the glue come loose on the hand
and he toppled off of a shelf from about
five feet of height. Both feet and most of the claws
broke off. I had to re-attach the feet and re-sculpt
the claws out of epoxy clay. After that lesson
i decided to drill a hole in the left palm and top
of the log where i inserted a steel pin as a key
to lock the two pieces together and prevent
the same scenario from repeating itself.
