discussion “GET TO THE CHOPPER!! “ Arnie in 1/24

[yak face]

Just like buses ,you wait forever for me to do a figure then two come at once!
Heres a 1/24 resin figure I got off Temu . Obviously its Arnold Schwarzenegger as he appeared in Predator and is a very good resemblance . I primed it black then tried zenithal shading with white , not sure if it really worked but its all about trying different techniques . I decided to start with the arms and face as I figured this would be the hardest bit for me. I’m reasonably happy
with the colour as stills from the film show a very tanned and quite dark arnie , later ive got to try and depict the camo cream on his face! . Next job is the camo vest and trousers which is another first for me.
Any observations , help encouragement more than welcome

Nice one, great film..... Some classic lines...."I ain't got time to bleed....!", etc. Watching along.

Off to a great start Tony, already in that final photo Arnie is looking familiar.

 

[Andy T]

He definitely has the likeness of Arnie. Looking great so far.

Started to get the camo on his clothes today . At this stage apart from his arms and face everything is just being block coloured , I’ll have to try and add some shading and highlights later . Next I think is his gun and all the bits fastened to him ( pistol holster ,machete etc ) plus their straps .
