T1 and T2 Endoskeleton Research Thread

Basic shapes of the T2 fingers done. Now I need to start detailing and rounding shapes.

I still think the T1 finger design is better, but I like the round spacers between the knuckles on the T2 fingers and how the knuckles being able to move from side to side down where they connect to the palm rods.

They should just have made a mix of the two, but much thinner. More in style with actual human bones. Slim and delicate. Same with the feet. They are way too massive.

I may do a version just for fun, later, just to see how it looks.
 
The T800 model I have has a pivot point between the knee and shin. After moving my foot around a bit, I don't really see any benefit to it being able to rotate. I guess I'm wondering what people's opinions are. Should I leave it as an option, or just delete it and make it static?
 
I think they fused it for Salvation, but it was able to rotate in the other movies. You can see some interesting hidden detailing, probably a ball joint rotation hidden inside the top of the shin of the Lightstorm endo. At least that's what it looks like to me, but if someone knows what it actally is, please let us all know.
 
Anybody have more pictures of this particular arm and hand prop seen at the SyFy Exhibition in Madrid? Or any other hero hand prop with the rounded corners?

They just keep disappointing. Sure it’s cool to the casual fan. Expensive disappointment. :(

definitely too stylized, considering this thread haha, but i went ahead and got the preorder because ... i dunno, it grew on me and i wouldve likely had FOMO. Head has servos and it supposedly moves. It ill look cool next to my T600 bust. I appreciate the complexity in the chest , though he should have also come with a proper base. My first new purchase ill be sure to post here of it in person when it arrives, whenever that is

That being said Im going to see about obtaining a base for it, whether I print it or not

Honestly the fact that it moves like the arm sells it enough. It does look badass also. Look forward to seeing your pics/videos.As a whole display piece it’s awesome. ;)
 
My Skynet 2029 1:1 looks a little on the small side ( Djon is on the bigger side ) ... ill probably make another one after I finish and make up the difference...

but anyways.... I was looking at 1:1 endos just for fun , but sucks i've never seen one in person..... Whenever i come across pics like this I think man they look undersized, unless this guy is a giant.

Arnold is 6'2" tall;)
 
Worked on getting some models ready. Then decided I would have some fun and loaded as many models as I could to do a render without having the computer crash. Could probably get the whole endoskeleton in there if I reduced all the parts by 4 times each, but I don't want to clutter my folders... so this is it.

Thought the pose was funny. The endo was just in static mode - perhaps hanging in the factory, when it suddenly detected movement and the eyes were the only thing moving in your general direction.
