Hopefully, should have one painted over the weekend.
 
VERY NICE!That's the BEST T2 model made in well over a decade.Probably not since Argonauts and maybe the Horizon T-800 kit.Most everything else out there is CRAP I.M.O say for a few elite kits.Have you worked out the electronics/LED for "the eye"?
 
Thanks for the compliments guys, much appreciated. I'm painting one at the moment, but tbh, I'm not a great painter, and I'm struggling a bit with the flesh tones and subtleties. I think it's going to be a bit more like a factory paint job I'm afraid lol

JPolacchi, thanks for your very flattering comments. Thanks to Toni Plutoni who supplied me with a wiring diagram and what components to get, I have a light up eye with a very cool fade out when it's turned off. Hope to show it soon.

For painting busts/figures, I highly recomend buying AFM DVD's by David Fisher who is A MASTER at painting figures and busts.You should contact him or maybe Rick Cantu (he's an RPF'er and a reg. in AFM) and see if they'd be interested in purchasing one?Either might be interested in painting one up and have it in a future AFM issue?Certainly something to behold your sculpting skills.It desrves praise and review in that kind of forum(I.M.O)
