All the pictures you took of it in front of the wall I could be forgiven for mistaking it for the real Arnie if it wasn't for the fact I can see you holding it.

I just wish the guy who sculpted it would move the eyes closer together at it seems a little out of proportion with the endoskull.

Thanks guys. The hair is a wig that is glued down.

I really like it. On mine, the wig I started with was reddish (as is Arnies natural color),and I tried to darken it (as they did for the film). But mine is still lighter than this one, and I sort of like the darker color better. Steve, the hair and clothes really brings out the best in your work.
 
Steve did a fantastic job on this Arnie Bust for me. I must say his Airbrush skills are amazing. For the Hair I used a female Wig, Ava Gabore Brand, color med Brown. I could not find the correct style or color in a male Wig, in person the color is a lot lighter than what you see in the Pictures. I spent over twelve hours trying to get the Wig just right. I had to cut it apart, and made sure all the lines were correct before hot gluing it in place, then I went into Hair cutting mode trying to style the thing to make it look like Arnies Hair. Thanks for the great job Steve.
