1:1 Schwarzenegger/Matrix bust finished!

[wilysteve]

Hi everyone, I finally managed to finish one of these up as John Matrix from Commando and thought I'd show a few photos I just took. The hair was a long, long, long nightmare of a job! But worth it I think. Hopefully in a couple of weeks I'll have some pictures of him in situ with a jacket from Commando over his shoulders:

Thanks for looking,
Steve.

Unreal! I mean TOO real.

"You're a funny man, Sully, I like you. That's why I'm going to kill you last."

Now someone has to do the black/white camo/war paint Conan!

A Conan would be awesome, and much easier hair work this time for ya Steve.

Freakishly real...

"You're a funny man, Sully, I like you. That's why I'm going to kill you last."

"Sully, remember when I told you that I would kill you last?"
"That's right Matrix you did!"
"I lied."

That is the most life-like bust I have ever see! :eek :eek :eek

This is the most realistic Arnold I have ever seen! Even better than some of the winston stuff!!

If one didn't know that was a bust, they'd swear it was pics of Arnie.

Truly amazing work!

 

[Gigatron]

Holy Crap :eek

When I first started to scroll down, I thought the first picture was a pic of Arnie that you were showing as a comparison - then I saw that it was the bust.

Is that all hand-punched hair?

Absolutely incredible work :thumbsup

It seems like the bar for sculpting lifelike busts keeps getting set higher and higher.... truly stunning.

I love that movie, btw.

I dare anyone to look at this pic and tell me it isn't really Arnold. Unreal work! You should make a fiberglass skull then add animatronics to it, I'd love to see something that realistic moving around.
