Should have been released like this, but oh well.
Complete repaint.
Reworked the scabbard
weathered boots and re laced
new fur underpants
re worked the belt for accuracy
new wrist wraps
new necklace strap, not on yet
Shorten sword handle and complete repaint
Camouflage pattern corrected, but some compromises were made due to the pattern outline being etched in the sculpt.
Extra bloody hands because I like it that way
The base is next on the list.

Brian did you fill in the etched pattern before changing it, thinking about doing it so I can go Bach with a movie accurate pattern. also do you have pics of Arnold’s back with the camo pattern.

I did some filling, some compromising on accuracy and some blood.

I posted a lot of reference earlier in the thread when I was trying to help Jerry make this accurate.
I can dig them up and repost if you can't find them.

Found it Brian, thanks.

Please don't nickname me "the statue police"

PCS made a wonderful sculpt, it deserves the correct paint, not a Sideshow copy....

Thanks Brian.

Look at the middlle photo the right bottom inner pec is fully covered with the dark warpaint and look at the difference in the distance between the dark warpaint pattern.

Keep in mind, Arnold is massive and when he moves, the pattern changes far more than you would expect.

Nah! It’s a different paintup from each other, so it was probably shot on different days from each other than pasted together in the editing room to be in the same moment in the film, or it’s a reshoot from a different day.

The picture where he is whiter is from ian unused scene where he kills one of the girls
