Excellent! I'm extremely envious.
TERMINATOR 2 Uncle Bob costume build
- Thread starter The Terminator
- Start date
Finally another update important enough to warrant a post: the most important piece!
Pants and jacket from the same maker that produced the ones seen on screen. Also the screen accurate belt.
I haven't distressed these at all, yet. After I am done the jacket should look a little more like this:
It's a strange feeling riding a Harley wearing this jacket :cool

Jacket, Pants and Belt look fantastic man. Love that it's got the entire accurate belt loop straps on the back to keep it from slipping. That's a modification I've still not gotten around to doing on my jacket.
They do look fantastic
and I'm really surprised how similar it is to the screen used jacket since my body proportions are very different from Arnie's. I'll need to have a couple of inner pockets added.
Something for next year:

Have done some weathering to the jacket and more textured. Apparently not enough to really stick out when photographed :unsure been trying to dull down the finish.
and have done a first make-up test for my finger. No chrome finish on the finger tip yet though.
WARNING: FAKE BLOOD
I should make a note that I have ZERO experience with make-up fx. Lucky for amateurs there are plenty of useful and fun videos on youtube.

Very cool. That finger makes me feel sick. In a good way of course.

Excellent, mission accomplished :lol

Re: 1st proper costume - Mystery Build
yeah - I'm grave digging / necro-posting here...
But I may need to try the sanding and re-staining avenue with mine! Looks great!

Was going to go with the newer AABB's(came out in 2014) M79. But apparently they are completely worthless, quality wise. So I went with Western Arms, full metal and wood version. Now busy beating it up and doing some general aging. Out of the box it really does look like a (heavy) toy
Here's the comparison of 1887's plastic/wood stock:

From top, original Plastic,
Original wood
Sanded wood
and then finally stained wood
Re: 1st proper costume - Mystery Build
No problemo
Winchester 1887? Make sure you post some before and after shots and thanks
Kind of off topic the wood stain also works well with leather :lol

Re: 1st proper costume - Mystery Build
They tend to do that
I'm sure you already did it but I will suggest it anyway, use google images and look at real guns, old ones how they look and try and mimic that
Like these for example of an old 1887 shotgun:

Yup
so when I finally found one in stock I just had to get it. It is soooo heavy compared to the one in resin
Suppose they're still available today?
The airsoft? Maybe somewhere, but not where I got it from: WGC shop. Quite expensive though. $250+ I have seen it costing $400+ :wacko
The resin one should still be available, got it from Matsuo, if you're okay with waiting, and waiting, I can recommend him. He might not be the easiest person to deal with, but he hasn't ripped people off that I am aware of at least.
Just some fake guns and fake roses

Your build and progress on this is inspiring, man. Last month, I had the opportunity to handle and purchase a real Winchester Model 1887 at our bi-annual gun & knife expo. They truly are a thing of beauty and what you have done with your replica is definitely right on par with the real deal. Excellent work. I will be looking forward to more updates on this one.

Thank you Tom
Very nice. Would be awesome to see some photos of that beauty
is it the sawed off version?I did just note this threads could use more photos of, well everything I suppose
I have updated the weathering and done some more work on the shotty.
I am working hard right now on my future driver's license(expensive as hell), so I can actually start utilizing my fatboy! And get some proper photos of it. Not to mention installing the screen accurate mufflers etc.
