You know, I liked this kit when I bought it, but I was never really TOO excited to get it painted.  What excited me the most was the Schierke kit instead.  But seriously... when I saw what John did with this kit, I couldn't believe my eyes.  This kit really evokes emotion, and the fact that something like resin and paint can actually do this to a full grown man, is either pathetic on my behalf, or freaking INCREDIBLE.  Obviously, I will go with the latter.

I didn't give John much direction on this kit.  I pretty much gave him free reign.  All I basically said was, "Umm, give her blonde hair, blue eyes, and make her look sad, but subtly."  Well, I think John pretty much nailed it in every way.  Looking at her is just amazing!  Erica is just the sweetest darling ever.  I wish I could hug her but I don't want to smear the paint or accidentally knock off her head!  =P

Really, John... what can I really say?  This kit far exceeded my expectations.  I am in love.
