I was never really crazy about this model, and never bothered to buy it and build it when I was a kid. The 1941 classic, The Wolf Man, just never scared me (not like Frank, Drac or the Creech). And out of all the Aurora kits, this one bored me to tears. Not enough detail, and I thought the base was cliche and lacking (can't we get a tree, a small log, a severed limb?). I did add some fake dirt though. I will say he was very easy to build, and I liked the way his bluejeans turned out, but I had a difficult time finding contrasting browns to paint his fur. This guy was my transition from paper towel painting to dry brushing.
