Craw , is your terminator finished ? , want me to put him up.

yeah you can post him if you want but my figures are never finished. i am gonna try making my own bandolier next cuz this one just isn't doing anything for me and i want real grenades. so far i got 2 webbelts spliced together. looks great just gotta paint it black and add an elestic strap to hold the grenades.


here's some more pics with the shotgun this time:

That looks awesome man! I always wondered what parts people used for the heavily damaged figures... I'll have to track down a Horizon kit one of these days.

Same, my customs still need finishing. I can never have enough of Terminator man, I just love the way these ST suits look!

Awesome work Elvis, BTW where did you get that T2 custom sculpt?

Re: Building the ultimate Terminator T-800 figure.

Anyone tell me what kinda pants are best for the Tech Noir Terminator look? I cant remember what they looked like in the movie, were they not the same as later on in the film (and on the BD Arnie T-800 fig)? Also how do you go about getting that pattern on his T-shirt?

I'm also thinkig of the M65 jacket, a black T-shirt and Dragon WWII German boots.

Re: Building the ultimate Terminator T-800 figure.

nice termie craw. i think the handmade bandoleer willl be much better than the plastic one.
might i suggest trying to work that shirt up closer to his neck to hide the adapter. bulking the chest or shoulders with cotton or something may help it from slipping down. mine did the same thing until i padded him a bit.

"He looks really pissed.."

I plan on beginning a custom of this type pretty soon, and asked this in another thread--where might I find a shirt, boots, and jacket like this? Is the shirt a custom?

Looks great!

Re: Building the ultimate Terminator T-800 figure.

Do you have any pictures of the patches? This is probably going to be one of the toughest parts for me to do on my own. Any recommendations for the stud-things on the back? Are yours just part of the design on the patch?

Much better - it looked too toylike in your before shot.
