    Hey thats great, thanx man, youre the best.

    Perhaps I was not clear enough when I posted the last set of pictures. The reason was to give you a update on the progress, nothing else. The mod is not finished yet !

    I've been working on moving the skull to the centre AND give it a neck. This is what I made so far, also; its only an update.

    This is the core of roll of wire, made from real thin metal.

    Divided into rings.

    Wrapped around a aluminium tube, it ooks like this.

    I gave the rings two nudges to create a flat front end. The drawings on it are just something I'm working on still.

    My first AutoCAD drawing! ( started a coarse, had 3 lessons so far. )

    Two strips of aluminium profile, cut out an angled piece.

    Knocked out the holes.

    And put it together in a cross-support.

    Cut the aluminium tube.

    And made it to fit over the cross-suport.

    The rings and the skull come on top of that.

    Got a bunch of stainless steel wires, tubes and chrome shower-hoses here, which Im going to play with now :)

    Looking amazing, but you should paint the teath aswell =)
    And ofcourse use the airbrush to make it look older.

    Do you mean to age the teeth or make them silver? as i recall the terminators have white teeth that look like human teeth.

    I tilted the skull quite a bit forward, then fastened it to the neck.
    [​IMG]

    I used the cables and chrome tubes to dress up the neck and also to cover the wire that comes from the

    eye-LEDs.

    He looks a lot more angry now, doesnt he ?
    [​IMG]

    Due to personal circumstances I was unable to do much more. The last thing I did was to take the mod as it

    was with me to the T.i.M.e.S. lanparty here in the Netherlands.

    The casemod compo jury thought it was good enough for first place and that made me feel a bit better.

    I hope that 2010 will be a better year for everybody. ( :grr: crisis suxx :sigh: )
