HT T-800 body too big for Terminator-2. It's like Hulk!!! he-he
Neck was cuted off and drilled to put on Hellboy body
 
it's very good, but personally, i think ht's terminator looked much more lifelike. this head looks like it was carved out of stone, while ht's head looks human.

that did take serious balls though, to use a hellboy body...not sure what was wrong with the regular arnie body...

great job though
 
LOVE the first 2 shots of it on the motorbike.

The proportions are probably more accurate than HT the way you have it there so good job.

I love the NECA sculpt but I prefer it on its own neck with no visible cut under the jaw. Front-on views are great but not quite as good from the side. I can also see what some say about the exaggerated power jaw on this sculpt. Great for moment-specific parts of the film where he is firing the shotgun and his jaw might be tensed but not the best for neutral Arnie. But as I always say the dimensions of the head and the sunglasses are more accurate than Hot Toys.

All-in-all this a great custom, easily my favourite custom of non-BD T2 Arnie. Send it to me. Now. :)
 
PM sent! And you'll send the Harley aswell of course? :lol:wink1:

Yeah seriously its a very good custom. Y'know I love the Hot Toys figure and I can deal with him being a bit too big just fine. But I see the compacted face every time I look at it - the one thing stopping it from being perfect. In a way its more bothersome than the crappy paint, rough skin texture and the seams of Neca's figure. It doesn't sound like it should be more bothersome because the list of imperfections on Neca's is longer but it just is, for me at least. Yulli did the same thing on Dutch, made his face too squashed. Not saying I could do better or that it isn't really obvious who she has sculpted its just...this little thing...if only someone had noticed and pointed it out soon enough it really would have been perfect - there'd be no "is he just trying to be daring and controversial?" type arguments from me about NECAs sculpt being better.
 
Awesome figure. Like I said on OSW, any idiot can open a box and take out a figure but it takes an artist to make his own that looks as good as one from a box. Great work.
