FYI stuff tends to take a while from Beto as he ships internationally from Mexico. I'd say at least two weeks.

Thanks for the heads up.
I talked to Beto, he sent it two weeks ago, so you can expect it this week Nathan.
Two weeks ago, huh? I thought Mexico was closer to California than that. I could have walked there and gotten it by now.
I finally got around to taking new pics of this H2 Creative replacement head for the HT BD T-800 figure. I painted this back on New Years Eve '06/'07. No, I'm not some loser with nothing to do on New Years; my fiance (now wife) was sick that night, so I painted while she slept.
Anyway, here it is, and you can now find it on eBay along with an Endoskeleton I'm selling with it:

That Terminator looks really good... I've never been a big fan of that sculpt, but you really wrung out every ounce of likeness.
It's the same LED light from the original head. Transplanted.
A couple of quick paint ups of Sunohc headsculpts.
Bruce Willis as John McClain
Ed Norton from Fight Club
I painted six heads in all in this batch; two neckless Ed Norton heads, two neckless Bruce Willis heads, and two Willis with necks. One Willis with neck is going back to Sunohc. The others are For Sale. PM me if interested. First come, first served.

pm sent,
dang
you've really perfected the eyes.
that's incredibly amazing how you did them and I know from experience out hard it is to actually get them to look like that.
the hairline's fantastic and the skin texturing/blotting is really well done as well.
i really want that norton one too now
hahahaha

Like others are saying the eyes are just alive... brilliant work
Thanks everybody. Yes, I like to take pride in my eyes. That's always the first thing I look at when I look at a figure. If there is no life in the eyes, it's just a toy. And I figure if they look good in macro photography, they'll look great in person. It sure did test my patience doing six sets of eyes all in one shot, too. I use 8 different steps to create them. And some steps require multiple layers.
Unfortunately, I don't think the macro photography made the skin look as good as it does in person. The blotting effect stands out too much in those pics to me. Looks better in person. That is a technique I've been trying on some translucent heads, and it seems to come off better with those. I think the white resin base on these is pushing it too forward when the camera picks up the light hitting it. But again, they look better in person, so if you like these pics, you'll be very pleased if you end up with one of them.

Insufferable S.O.B.
Did you paint SS Dusty?
No, I didn't paint that one. Saw it in person though. It brings Sideshow's 1/6 game to a whole new level. Be sure that the Joe line is alive and well and looking very, very good. The planned release rate is about 1 per quarter, but the wait is going to be worth it.
this is a SilentSurfer repaint.
it looks like P2 came right from screen. everybody who i show it just admire it.
but...
SilentSurfer, what made you avoid sanding under paint and covering it after?
this brilliant repaint just falls off from a lightest scratch.

Thanks, Stag.
Holy Crap, P., those pics are so awesome, and thank you so much for posting those in here.
I love it. I also love seeing it next to, and in scale with, the P1. Amazing to see that dream realized even if it's owned by somebody else.
And you have the perfect bio for him too. Just be careful of my paint when you take it on and off.
I am super jealous of that damn Predator.
I so wish I had painted that for myself, but at least I have great pics to look at.
Nice custom details you added like the bone straps across his chest. I'm glad that paint job went to somebody who loves Predator 2 so much.
