The DIE HARD Thread

[cadaver202]

Ya I was thinking about using the smaller pegs. I'm just having a hell of a time getting the current ones out. They are in there good.

 

[MarfMaster]

I used the extras I had from the t-1000. Are those the "smaller" ones? I'd love to hide as much as I can.

Not sure if those are the smaller ones, standard TT pegs are as small as they get though I think!

Yeah I definitely had to bust out the pliers when I switched them out for my Dexter

I got my Sunohc sculpt today...

Thank you, Daniel!

 

[cadaver202]

So exciting! I was stoked when I got mine yesterday!

 

[Wor-Gar]

Yesterday? And already painted? Wow!

 

[cadaver202]

ya I got it at like 11 and started painting right away. I was pretty excited.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I have to do some neck surgery as well before mine goes off for painting.

What did you do to the neck on yours, cadaver?

I'm trying to decide whether I'm gonna "dremmel" the inner neck or slice off a piece of the body's extended neck. Might do a little of both.

Loving all these custom Mcclanes!!!

Got my Brother Production DHWAV Mcclane today. Really great figure!

 

[lord-22]

the Brother Production fig turn out great can't wait for mine

 

[Mr.E]

Willis' likeness is hard to master it seems, but out of all of 'em, I'm really diggin' that Brother Production one.

 

[jungle jom]

Yeah, it's about the closest to getting him right. Still not perfect but good enough.

 

[Mr.E]

It looks very similiar to his look on the main poster:

I did a bit of both. the head needs a lot taken out of the back right by the hair line. I think mine might have to go a bit lower even still.

I got the Die Hard one sculpt from Sunohc a while back and, as I couldn't afford a good HT muscle body, I decided to bash him from the third movie.

Then I thought I'd try a few other movie titles...
The Last Boy Scout

Hudson Hawk

Striking Distance

Last Man Standing

I just received Sunohc's new DH 4.0 sculpt the other day too. I've painted it but I'm still waiting on a couple of things to finish the figure.

 

[Wor-Gar]

OMG, that's a lot of Bruce.

 

[RJMacReady16]

Those sculpts are rough, but damn you nailed the DH 3 shirt. Never could find one myself.

And props for the "Hudson Hawk" honorable mention.

 

[Mr. Fusion]

Those are great, Itchy! I especially like this one.

I received my Dirty Johnny today. No pictures yet. I freaking love it.

Cheers, yeah, I'm still learning to paint and maybe I don't do Sunohc's work enough justice but I think these are some of my better work though I'm not so sure about the Dh 4.0 one, but then I haven't seen any others painted up yet. I think I'll start by bashing him from the start of the film and then do a series of battle damaged versions getting progressively more _____**d up.
That shirt was a stroke of luck, a year ago I bid on three willis custom figures; one from DH1, one from 3 and a generic bald Willis as a hitman. The first two came with those tiny heads from a while back but included that rockin shirt, the badge and left handed shoulder holster. I got all three for about thirty bucks, almost worth it for those three items alone, right?

Thanks for the Hawk nod; I really like how he came out

Those are great, Itchy! I especially like this one.

thanks man
Yeah, I think That's one of Willis's most underrated flicks.

I was really tempted by that Dirty Johnny but, truth is, for me this hobby is all about being creative and building my own figures. Buying a set like that would reel like cheating

 

[Wor-Gar]

Anyone tried to "cut" or trim the sculpt down along the natural line of the hairline? I see a slight line that seems almost like you could dremel/trim the hairline/jawline a bit more...

Bottom red line shows the line I'm talking about in the top pics...

It may be too much to take off, not sure.

Just curious if besides dremeling out the sculpt to sit on the neck better if anyone tried this as well...
