Got this from one on ebay, I think straight from the sculptor, but I am not sure..

8 resin parts + wire + small chain
About 5" tall, and 7.5" wide.

These 3 small parts are the only ones with a lot of flash to deal with.
But it is thin and shouldn't be too hard to clean up.

2 tomb stones. A little clean up to be done at the pour sprues, but otherwise really clean.

Very interesting base, with some really crazy detailing on it.
Also, very lightweight as it is hollowed out.

Even something small, like this wagon has crazy amounts of detail on it.
It's going to be a real challenge for me to paint.

While the figure itself, at first glance, looks kind of basic.
Take another look, and note all the detail on the mask, and with the rest of the face.

I really love this piece.
Then again, I always go for stuff like this. A little off, a little creapy, and kind of cute. All at the same time.
It's small, so it doesn't take up lots of space, and is also reasonably priced.
It's got some insane amount of detail to it, and is going to be a real challenge to do well.
The casting is more than adiquate. There is some clean-up to be done, but there are no voids, bubbles, or pinholes to fill.
So no real filling or putty work to do. Just a little grinding, and plenty of work with the files and sandpaper.
I would definitely recomend this kit to anyone.
