1/6 Hot Toys-The Terminator (T1)-MMS 238-T-800-(Battle Damaged Version) 1/6 Scale Figure

[Snake Plissken]

Keep dreaming.

they couldn't produce enough plastic to make big enough bubblehead for an 1/4 terminator.

Ahh come on.....Hot Toys wouldn't tease something and then not produce it. It's only been four years, give it a chance.

You open old wounds!

Seriously, that would have been an epic figure to own (as long as it turned out well).

that's what i meant exactly

 

[#Brian]

I realize that this is not screen accurate and the pants are wrong, but I couldn't waste an opportunity to show off the beautiful DX13 knee and I wanted him to really stand out along the clean versions as a machine that was dragged under a semi.

that's cool, and T1 did have a revealed knee, though almost unseen. why do you think a-dev and i did it?

Fantastic job #Brian. I also really like the pose even though we don't see him standing that way in the movie.

... where do you think I got my inspiration?

Thanks! I wanted him to have a slightly believable human pose but with something that felt "off" and unsettling like a bit of zombie / robot feeling comming through.....

I also like what the DX13 body does for his bulk. Only problem really is the T2 bullet wounds on his neck.

I just pretend he got those in the police shoot out!

 

[Rambler]

Nicely done #Brian. Looks good.

 

[a-dev]

I actually barely exposed the knee on mine.






I didn't want the damage looking too samey to the DX13. Mainly I just like knowing there's an endoskeleton leg under there. The jacket on mine is an old MMS02 - I didn't bulk up the body on this one so the thicker MMS02 jacket kinda does that itself.

^^^looks awesome^^^

both your weathering look cool.
i cannot understand how to do it (how to get cool blood color, how to make dirt) - and so mine stay untouched.

The blood on mine is just a mixture of black and red paint until it looked a shade I liked as far as I remember - possibly with a layer of clear gloss over it to keep it shiny. I also tried to make the pants look saturated with blood. I think the paint I put on the pants is primarily the same gloss plus a bit of red paint.

I didn't weather the jacket or the T-shirt on mine come to think of it. Those were ported over from my old Elvis1976 custom.

What's great about adding blood and that to the Tanker Truck Pursuit T-800 is that you can use your imagination a little because we never really get to see a full on shot of what happened to him fully apart rom the obvious.

Went with what most members have done but also I carved a lot out of the boots, especially the left one as it looked real flat (thanks to P. pics) and also snapped the buckle strap off -







Excellent work all round peeps.

 

[P.]

it's funny that i cannot find those pictures in my albums.

 

[Sidious-66]

Needle in a haystack springs to mind....

 

[#Brian]

These all look great.
I haven't done blood on mine yet, I'm waiting to pick up a proper pair of 238 pants.

For blood I use Tamiya translucent red and mix in Tamiya smoke.
This dries glossy and looks like blood.

For weathering I used craft acrylic flat black applied with a soft toothbrush. Dry brushed it. Had such a small amount of paint on the brush that I scrubbed the pants and only high spots picked up the paint.
P: you should have a try at it. Use some old cloth to practice, I'm sure you would find that you are more than capable.
