Agree with all the above.
So... how DID you achieve that effect on the eyes?

Wow...glad my work meets with your approval, guys! Thanks! Mrmurph, the veins in the eyes were painted inside the eyes with Tamiya clear red, then when it dried I painted over the inside with Tamiya clear orange.

Looks great! Great paint job.
Hey, we have the same light box. I got it for Christmas years ago. I no longer use the box anymore....just the lights.

Ok, I did my part for the economy today and picked up this kit at my LHS. It'll probably sit on my shelf for a while before I get around to building it, but dang, it is a beauty.

(Anybody else notice how much this thing looks like Bette Davis)?
