I finally got my Godzilla aurora re-issue kit done before the year was out. It only took me a year off and on. I find that I keep researching color schemes and do layers to get it just right or at least as right as I like it to be. The original Godzilla was never "green" as the box shows or many others are colored. The first color movie of Godzilla , he was a mixture of black and grey, so that is how I went. The first green Godzilla didn't make the movies til the year 2000. Now all except the Bride of Frankenstein aurora version is in my collection, from 1968 to now I have been collecting the monster models.

Oct 1st . In 1988 I opened my home,Gargoyle Manor into a public museum called "The Monster Museum and Novelty Shop" alter to be called "Gargoyle Manor -The Monster Museum". We started a tradition where I would put a new plastic Jackolantern on our Halloween tree next to our house. We are still open , but only taking tours by request. Thanks to everyone who has ever visited us all these years.

Wow... I looked up and saw the clock said 6:00 but I coudnt see if it was am or pm , so I got up and it was pm . So I have slept nearly my day away and I still feel nackered . I checked my pill pack and I took the wrong set of meds this morning, I took my night time instead of my morning....dang getting old (which I am not admitting to) is full of crap.

This is what we made with our new 3D printer . When it is working right it is working so well. I may try AND PAINT THIS LATER ON.

Some years ago i was approached at a convention and asked if I could replicate this make-up into an affordable mask. I said I would give it a try . Now mind these are the only two pictures I was given to go by, so I made the prototype and the least I could make them for was around $5.00 each. I ended up just giving the one I made to the person as they thought the price was too high and I dont think they liked it. I mean I had to make the model from scratch using only two pictures to go by, so what do you think? I know they are amateurish, but ?

This is my beautiful daughter and myself one halloween night many years ago. Today is my daughters birthday, she was born in 1988 in our local hospital around 6:30 pm or so. She was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen in my life. I guess I was over protective , held on a little tight. But I tried to be the best Dad I could. I dont talk much about my private life , well , about my daughter, because she had a falling out with me on her 23rd birthday. I tried to apologize for my part of it all, but she chose not to accept it and has blocked me out of her life. She got married a few years ago, I found out through friends about a year later. Why am I talking about this now in public? I guess I am at an age that I know I dont know how many more birthdays will be missed . I miss my daughter everyday, I love my daughter everyday. I just wish she would remember that or someone could tell her that. I miss her with every fiber in my body and soul. So Happy Birthday my beautiful girl. Be safe and Happy. , love , your Dad.

Back in 1968 dear ole Santa Claus brought me not only the silver knight Sir Stuart but also the Gold Knight Sir Gordon . I played them til near death and ruin. I still have them sans the armour and weapons and some of the arms have went missing. But I was talking about them with my dear wife and she found Sir Stuart with most of his armour and weapons and all his appendages which I show here. He will be in our Monster Museum of Toys and this time round i will keep him in better shape with all the extras for any and all to see. If any of you would like to relive your childhood or share them with your own offspring you are welcome to visit Gargoyle Manor -The Monster"Toy" Museum by appointment.
