Re: Neck-less Arnold head coming soon!

I think if the hair was brought down just a notch it would be near perfect. As of right now, it sits to high making his forehead look bigger than it is. I think it most noticeable in the side-profile. But the sculpt itself is amazing! :clap

Re: Neck-less Arnold head coming soon!

It is great hairwork but I do have some issues with the overall shape. Hate to be a voice of discontent amongst a lot of praise but I am quite fussy about Arnie's hair, bizarre as that may be.

Like Snoop my problem is with the profile view.

Unfortunately its reminding me of the old Sideshow sculpt below when I would rather the hair and the general shape looked more like the NECA. People dismiss NECA because they're low end but they nailed his T2 hairstyle and the shape of Arnie's noggin and that isn't the kind of thing that only high-end can do.

Heres pics I took just now of the NECA head, with flash unfortunately due to poor light in my room here.

Referring only to that profile view and comparing only with the hair and shape of the NECA head, not anything else:

-Frontal hairline could possibly be too high. It seems to be giving the effect of his forehead sloping too much but I could be wrong. It may also need to be more angular, gonna look at screengrabs to confirm.

-the crown is too sloping IMO

-the hair on the back of his head is puffing out too much, like as though its reflecting the shape of his skull. In T2 at least, Arnies hair doesn't do that. It pretty much forms a straight vertical line from the top at the crown to the bottom at the neckline. In fact if anything is ever seen puffing out in the movie its the hair right on his neckline getting pushed out by his jacket collar not the hair higher up. Think of the DX10 mini-mullet!

Again, hate to be that guy. I wouldn't have a clue how to do what you are doing so I applaud you.
 
Re: Neck-less Arnold head coming soon!

I don't think there's any reason to shy away from honest critique like that.

You're the authority on Arnie Terminator around here, so i'd say feedback like this is MOST valuable in such a thread. Even moreso I'd say with a digital sculpt such as this where changes are only a few clicks away (ok maybe i'm over simplifying it, but you get the picture :lol )

Thanks as always Void. I do seem to have gotten a rep as an 'authority' on Terminator and its flattering that people actually seek out my opinion - truth is though I'm just a fan with my own particular areas of obsession - Arnie's hair being one of them :cuckoo::lol I dunno if you've been in the QS002 Endoskeleton thread but I've had to back out of that one, the precise details of the T1 VS T2 endoskeletons not being a strongpoint of mine. So I certainly don't know everything. :)

I'm just a fan too, with my areas of obsession... :lol :hi5:

Don't ask me about 89 Batman :lol

I certainly hope it comes across like that, thanks.

I'm wondering what the hells going on with my pics on this page right now though, most of them are coming up red 'x's for me, including my sig.
