Title: Sunday build: Planet of the Apes' Cornelius diorama
Post by: ChrisMC on April 29, 2012, 02:56:56 PM
This literally took me just today to complete, paint and assembly. A reissue by Aurora of the old 70's model kits. It's the first time I did a figure. I usually do ships, planes that sort of stuff. Pretty fun to do.

I'm OCD, it's hard for me to walk away from something that's incomplete when I can finish it. This was an easy one, my last one, the X-Wing took me a couple weeks.

Yeah, there's also Dr. Zaius, Zira and the Gorilla General Urko I think.

Cool! It would be fun to have the whole series. POTAs is one of my all time favorite films. I own all the five original films on Blu-Ray and have really enjoyed that set.

It's a great set. the transfers are really well done, especially the first film. Dr. Zaius is in the mail on his way to me as I type this.
