Possibly another stupid question - where might I purchase this? Off-license? Pharmacy? DIY store?

If you are serious, yeah I found Pharmacys, drugstores, even grocery stores carry 90% rubbing Alcohol

Now that I see rubbing alcohol worked, I have some ideas that I can use for the stripping of the blood, but I haven't decided yet, I want see the big guy in person to see what I want to do.

I was serious yeah, just trying to cover myself in case it was a question with a very obvious answer! Its not something I would typically be buying.

I put some leather conditioner on my white streak on the pants, and it's not that noticeable in most lighting conditions. The more I mess around with DX13, the more I love it!!! Here are some pics from my play session last night

great poses and thanks for pointing out the white streak clearly in the video.

I guess with the shades the DX10 is flawless Arnold

I know I'm probably in the minority here, but I really like the amount of blood my headsculpts have on the actual metal parts. In the right lighting, they really look like chromed metal with some bloody residue on them, which is exactly what I would expect. What I don't like so much is the 'jelly' on the skin of Arnie's forehead.

All in all, I LOVE this figure. But if a braver man than I can figure out how to get some of that jelly off the forehead without messing anything up, that would be LEGIT.

Simple shots like this, incredible lifelike likeness to T-2 Arnold!

Yep, greatest HT figure ever

Ok so I got my Dx13 today looks fantastic but my grenade launcher is missing the pin to hold it together. Any recommendations?

Contact sideshow, or whoever sold it to you.

No worries! Thanks for watching

 

[The Chev]

Took some pictures. Didn't get too in-depth. Will do another shoot eventually.

Contacted them and sent pics. Any idea of what they typically do?

Good job on the steel-mill-esque lighting.

 

[The Skull]

Yep, greatest HT figure ever

That's gold right there, brilliant shot

Nice pics also Chev, great steel foundry color for the back drop

Lovely shot by DEATHASYLUM there. To be honest I'm not fond of the human eye being upturned to that degree but beautiful clarity in the pic and it shows the detail very well. Its been called waxy and soft but not based on that shot it isn't.

Can you remove some of the excess blood on the flesh as well?

Nice work..good to know there are options!

Will the method work on the fleshy blood smeared parts

Maybe? I may give it a go later this weekend.

So...maybe a silly question...what kind of alcohol are we talking here? Can I simply break out a can of Lager?

Any old generic 90% rubbing alcohol ,a-dev. I bought mine from Wal-Mart but you can get it anywhere; CVS, Rite-Aid, Dollar General etc.

Heres the stuff I bought.

I think you and someone else said that. Unless its been you both times.

I must admit I've been kinda suspicious that this may be the case, especially after Difabio shopped over the battledamage and made it look like a clean sculpt. It looked pretty fat-headed. I dunno. I'd like to be wrong.

I know I said it in my review I posted a few paged back.

The chrome part looks perfect now Fiend
That's a better finish than you could ever get with silver paint (which 90% of chrome paints actually are).
And I think full on chrome would be out of scale with this. That looks like problem fixed to me.

Did you try on the skin? I'm still def going to repaint the skin/blood area, make it more detailed.
Think I'm gonna do a job on this at the w.end.

Thanks Rory.

Like I said earlier I haven't tried it on the skin but it may work. That's a 'might' try.

Crazy that in a couple years this figure will look dated!!! Even crazier is that we can't see how dated it is today!!!! Man I must be smoking some good ****!!!

Screw that, contact who you purchased it from.

You could also try to apply some heat to it a rub it. At lest that was a old pleather/vinyl seat trick.

A pretty healthy amount. But it does seem like it is very random though and not on amount of purchases. Cannot say for certain.
