Very nice! I've never seen a Prisoner model painted this way in real life. I wonder — and this is no criticism to those who opt for this painting treatment — if the model painted this way might look better in a photo that in reality. When you look at it in a photo (such as this one) it does looks very impressive, though.

Question: What did you paint the inside of the skull? From the photo, it looks like just plain black. Yes?

Thanks Guys for the compliments on my Prisoner here and Frankie-boy the inside of the skull was wasnt painted black its the color of the styrene wich is grey.I guess the way the pics were taken kinda gave it that black hollow look to wich is great for me cause putting this guy together was some what a of task here :)

All of your models are so excellent, I have the highest praise and thank you for posting. Your ideas are often unique but always well done!!!

Im sure someone has asked you this before, but how do you continue to produce so many finished model kits? I love to build but maybe only build 10 a year! Even at that, Im out of display room. Wolfman, you are an Amazing Modeler!

This is an AWESOME model!
Your paint job is outstanding. I wish I'd had it for reference when I did my halloween decorations this last year. I decided to scale up the forgotten prisoner from memory...used a 2 1/2 foot skeleton and some insulation foam. Check it out (2nd picture down) on www.pyxl8.com. Your interpretation would have made mine way better...maybe this year!

Nice work.
