Re: T1 Kyle Reese by DCHUNG

Is this project still ongoing?
YES!
I really hope this happens. Needs me a Reese.
Any updates on Reese or matrix?
Does this mean you are already producing figures for sale? :pray:
YES!
Any idea on price for full figure?
Trying to make this the most affordable custom I've offered up to this point in the last 10 years... Will be less than $200, I think!
Can't wait to see the final product :D

So, the Nike Vandals aren't done yet, and so aren't pictured, but here's the rest of him. (This is a prototype head and paintjob, so later ones might look a bit different... just a head's up (no pun intended))

Re: T1 Kyle Reese by DCHUNG

Great to see the progress. Curious how to my eyes, the last picture is the one in which the head looks the best, even though it is close up.
 
Re: T1 Kyle Reese by DCHUNG

That looks awesome! I can't wait for this one! Great progress and I'm in 110%, maybe you'll do a T1 Sarah Connor for us to go with Reese one day?
 
Re: T1 Kyle Reese by DCHUNG

Likeness looks great, but that huge neck peg and overall size and the way the coat is hanging is really throwing things off for me. The pants are fantastic. Shirt looks a little weird but maybe some weathering or fading will help. What body is it on? Reece was lean, so I'd see him on something like a TT narrow. Nevertheless I'm still in for one especially around the $200 price point.
 
Re: T1 Kyle Reese by DCHUNG

awesome! Dan may I suggest you change the title? Admins cracking down on threads that have direct relation with licensed IP.

Also, under $200 is a great price. I think a kit to make our own figure is the best way to go?

Thanks for the head's up. Hope people can still find this thread under "Future Protector" (which I thought was better than "Mother Fu**er" as a knock-off name).
 
I put my name on the list on the google site. Any chnce there will be a Sarah to go along with Kyle?

:lol :lol :lol Looks great so far :rock
 
I'm sure people can do this once they have the figure in hand, but it would be nice to see if this works beforehand. The color of the striping on the shirt should be like a light brown. You can't tell from the photo in my signature, but my custom Reese has a fabric very similar to what is here now, might even have a tighter stripe pattern. Anyway, I put the fabric in a bleach wash and the color went from black to brown. Wondered if this could be tried before a perfectly good shirt gets ruined at home? It worked really well for the fabric I used, but I'd hate to assume it would work for this.

Can you post some bigger pictures of that trio?
 
I did these myself for the most part. I did the entire Sarah Connor outfit myself. The head was a mod of the HT T2 Sarah. Someone did the new hair and I painted it. The Kyle head is from Snyderman on eBay. The trench is HT Col. Trautman, just perfect for it. I did everything else myself, which is why I posted about the striped maritime shirt. If I can post better pictures, I will. I'm not real savvy about the workings of this forum. Been a member for a little while, but mostly just stay in the shadows. Not up on all the fancy stuff yet, like your cool signature. Mostly just get frustrated, like when I finally find out about a project and it's too late.

Just wanted to see how this picture looks in the posting. Don't know how to make them super big. A little low angle photographic trickery.
