Maybe just a bit too "tanned". Did he redo the eye?
Yep, if done well custom paint usually will only increase the value of a piece like this.
The price on that CM T-850 went into the stratosphere on ebay. From my experience, these customs are really worthy for the collectors and definively can be called 'one-of-a-kind'. And it's a fact of logic, what do you prefer, a grail statue with the default factory paintjob or a grail statue painted by a professional...Great custom paint jobs can increase after market value a great deal. For example, if I recall correctly, someone customized an Arnie CM T-850 awhile back it sold for waaay more than what it was worth pre-customization. Customized collectibles can be looked at as one-of-a-kind.

Well, maybe this thread will serve as inspiration to someone with cash around here and try the same sending it to one of the greats (Silent Surfer, Joe Dunaway, Rick Carthu...), I would love to see this kind of repaint made by one of this names
LOL this is a cosmic coincidence... I didnt even saw your message when I was typing mine.SilentSurfer is re-painting mine. I know he'll do a bas-asss job. Don't really mind if the value goes up, I just wanted it look as screen accurate as possible.
Awesome repaint. I retouched mine a while back and I'm happy I did.

We will see the result Juan, in Silent Surfer's hands your bust can be turned into the ultimate terminator piece
