I had no idea you could use baking soda to speed up glue or improve its integrity. This is a fun one. I loved the maw and teeth work that you've done.

@Jennifer: I learned that from Adam Savage (of Mythbusters fame)!
@Ben: As do I! Love me some Ray Bradbury 🙂

Thanks, Gorby!
I have been very pleased with gradually altering the fleshtone of the paint and experimenting with the varnishes to try to get different effects. 🙂

Hi, Jennifer!
Thank you!
I'm very pleased with its mouth. Was fairly pleased so far with the hide, but have run into a snag - for some reason the wash (same I've used all over its right side) is now reacting with some of the yellow/bright greens on the left side and turning them off-white. :|
Same paint brand (Mission Models) in the wash so I have to wonder if it's a thing with the wash aging, perhaps??
I really wanted to like Mission Models, but seriously considering going back to Tamiya given my experiences on these 3 recent kits.
Maybe it's me - maybe it's them. Either way the result is not optimal. LOL

Album info
I knew I had to have this kit.
I've been a kaiju & Harryhausen fan since childhood and didn't realize for some time that the film of this beast, awakened from slumber by an atomic bomb test, predates Gojira/Godzilla's by a year!
The story was inspired by a 1951 short story, "The Foghorn," by none other than Ray Bradbury!
