One of the very best customs I've seen. You should be very proud of that mate!

Thank you good sir(s).
I am very proud of this figure. I've had dozens of offers to sell (with a very good price), but call me stupid for not biting...
this is my first real custom project and making of this figure has been a valuable learning experience. This figure is truly the gem of my collection. It has a lot of sentimental value... the kind-of that cannot be priced...

elämän merimies - This custom is Amazing, and judging by the Arnold Poll HT would be stupid not to make one.

Impressive work, Elämän!

I love all the attention to detail you put in both figures.

Re: 1/6 COMMANDO/RED HEAT ~ elämän merimies WIP Custom kitbash

it's been a while, but now I'm back in action with a new non-Arnie related custom bash. so, I guess it would be time to update the thread title again?
although non related to Arnold, this franchise still has an ever-so-slight connection to his name...

jacket test (had this old thing lying around and used it as a starting point):

I think it worked out okay. updates to follow... though I'm a bit sceptic about the headsculpt, I'm hoping everything will work out for the best.

oh, and don't mind the stand-in figure in the pics... it's irrelevant.

Wow.....this Commando is simply the best, a truly masterpiece.

Re: 1/6 COMMANDO/RED HEAT ~ elämän merimies WIP Custom kitbash

I agree! I am going to use the "recipe" to make my own custom John Matrix from Commando! Awesome work! Ever thought of making a custom Arnold as Conan The Barbarian?

 

[elämän merimies]

Re: 1/6 COMMANDO/RED HEAT ~ elämän merimies WIP Custom kitbash

thanx guys. the figure (mostly accessories) has gone through a lot of small "improvements" after those pics were taken and I really should submit updated pics... maybe later.

Re: 1/6 COMMANDO/RED HEAT ~ elämän merimies WIP Custom kitbash

off topic, but hey... it's my topic ain't it?

was paging through a couple of Drew Struzan books and suddenly got inspired to draw. just testing out my drawing tablet really, but I have a good feeling about this. though Struzan inspired it's starting to have more of a Tyler Stout vibe to it. I'm getting a little ahead of myself, but I'm imagining a Mondo/Stout style poster on my wall... hmmm.

anyways just thought I'd share.

anyone familiar with this site: https://www.moviepicturedb.com
are the pics of high quality (it does say on the site that: High resolution or filesize does not necessarily mean high quality!) / what does it cost to download (it does say: buy credits?) / is it legit.

I'm in the need of some good reference pics for my commando poster project and this site has production pics I've never even seen before.

oh, and if anyone has good/rare production pics regarding commando (1985) could you please post them here. thanx.

I'm not familiar with this website, but I have some high-res Commando pics that are available there.
Give me the links for those you are interested in & I'll check if I can help you with them.
If I will upload everything I have from Commando in high resolution here, mods will probably kill me Same goes to guys with slow connection.
