Thanks Smylex, I totally agree. People’s reactions that aren’t in this hobby are my favorite part.

How's that T-800 coming?
Still waiting on that chest and leg paint up from Father Phantom. In the mean time I’ve been building his left arm and weathering up pieces like the M79 and the bandolier. As soon as I get those pieces back from Father Phantom I can hit the ground running

What pieces / sculpts are you using the the chest and leg? Custom scuplts / casts...?
Not totally sure of the origin of them, got them in a trade a couple years ago

There were a couple chest sculpts. The one I used was almost entirely unique; sculpted by a friend, and his cast and mine are the only two I know of.
There is only one custom-sculpted knee I know of, created by a member here probably 15 years ago, and it is ubiqutous within this subject (virtually all T-800 statues feature this same knee). I did as well, but customized it, as it is unnaturally straight; no bend at the knee joint.
Now, if you have a new cast or sculpt, that would be very intriguing!

Yup; that's the knee that's been around forever. Look at my statue - see if you can see the difference...
And that is the chest piece seen most - Steve / StreetJudge uses that one often. Not sure the source, but I do like the depth of the the torn flesh. I had to build up the depth / thickness of the torn belly on mine to make it deeper.
As mentioned, I was friends with the member that did the chest on mine, and I know who did the knee.

My first silicone piece. Most of my builds from here on out will be silicone based

Thank you, it was made by BlueBox Hyper. And yes the eyes do! Super creepy
Weathered up my R2 for a subtle Tatooine look
1:1 silicone ESB Han Solo bust with hands for my next life size. Chewbacca has been waiting a long time for his wing man. Bust and hands by Howard Senf

That Han Solo is incredible!!! Brilliant!!!
And finally Han is now with his furry friend. I still don’t have his lightweight blaster ready so I threw my metal DL-44 in the holster and tried my best to make it look like he’s grabbing for it. Just for these photos. Han stands 6’2 while Chewbacca stands at 7’6
IMHO, your figures would benefit from internal poseable steel skeletons. Han Solo would be dropping his right shoulder if he was moving to draw his blaster.
I really love the battle-damaged Arnold bust. It really looks like Arnold, and the satin chrome finish on the endoskeleton skull looks perfect. The only way it could be more realistic would be If there were a few loose scraps of flesh hanging off the torn edges.
I've been wanting a T800 endoskeleton for some time. Soon i'll have my 5'x10' CNC table built and then i'll be able to mill parts, plus CNC plasma cut.
I might could build you a 1:1-scale Judge Dredd ABC robot if you're interested.

The Han Solo reaching for his blaster isn’t the finished pose. As I wrote, I have a lightweight DL44 I’m finishing up as he’ll be holding it and aiming forward. Since its not finished yet, for the photos I just made the temp pose
