Is it possible to take a picture of the face without using flash?

 

[#Brian]

The dreaded early photos with a cell phone and flash......

These are the only ones I used a flash on.
I only have a cell phone. I'll turn b off my cabinet lights and take some.

 

[#Brian]

It's a overcast rainy day.
These were shot near a window, natural light.

 

[rjszar]

Thanks for those pictures. The face looked so pasty with the flash. Definitely helps with the likeness.

BTW, very unique shot of him just sitting there in the palm of your hand.

 

[#Brian]

Yes, I thought that when I first took them. I wanted to be guilty of releasing early flash pics so everyone would worry like the fight club Bradley Pitts...lol

 

[rjszar]

Yes, horribly washed out and distorted early pics are mandatory.

Glad I could be of service! Lol

mail guy silently slipped in a 'you missed package' slip and left.
Now I have to wait for Monday and go to post office to pick this up.. What a pain in the arse

 

[#Brian]

Mine gave one knock and ran. I chased him down!
They are very busy this time of year.

Did you get an e-mail from Asmus that this had shipped to you or did it just show up?

Man what's happened to me. I see it...and not much ****s given if I'm honest. The fact that DX10 and MMS117 are such iffy likenesses of Arnie doesn't help - if I don't even have a definitive iteration of Arnie himself why even bother with John Connor at all (and that's even regardless of the JC figure's Edward Furlong likeness...which is questionable at best). I dunno. Not sure I'm arsed anymore. Official and good or GTFO is the way I seem to be these days.

Not really interested in this myself, maybe back when I was bashing my own I would have bought, but not so much anymore. If Hot Toys made one I would buy, but most of these knock offs don't stand the test of time.

It is pretty decent to honest, way better than the bash I attempted a few years ago, its just the wrong camo shirt and average likeness that turns me off.

As far as a great T2 figure their is still the DX13, that figure still rocks and would go well with this John

 

[#Brian]

It's pretty much a background prop at best. It was cheap enough that I didn't feel a hit, not sure I would pay a hot toys price for this character even if it was spot on.
It definitely fills the missing void on the back of the Harley, but if you are a stand them in a glass case all alone kind of displayer, this Lil guy won't cut it. He has no presence without a prop like bike or something.

Not familiar with GTFO. Do they make unofficial with quality as good as official like Hot Toys?

 

[a-dev]

He wasn't that small, FFS.

Yeah I think that's a pass.

[#Brian]

I think you are seeing forced perspective on the last pic. I has Arnie very close to the camera.

 

[#Brian]

...actually, he does seem a bit small now that I think about it.

 

[a-dev]

John's eyeline should be above Arnie's man-t*ts at least.

Yep.
My Lil Connor is destined to sit on the bike and that's about it.
