1/4 scale Diamond Select Arnold re-sculpt

Hi all,

I had always thought the original Diamond Select T2 figure captured Arnold's likeness very well if not a little dehydrated and felt with a bit of work could produce a very nice Terminator sculpt and figure.

So I have been playing with this figure for some time and have made multiple attempts to re-work the head to be a more T2 era, but I think I still get T3 feel each time.. So a bit of advice please.

Here are some pics, and a side by side of a picture from stan winsten site with T3 sculpt. Is it the slender face thats the difference or are there more defined things I am missing when sculpting Arnold in the T2 era?

Thanks in advance for the help.

The details are a little exaggerated, with too sunken-in areas and the cheek grooves being too defined, making the sculpt look like an older man. If you build out the sunken-in areas to make a more even transition to the high-point areas such as the cheekbones and jaw and such + softening all grooves and lines, I think you'll create a more accurate T2 look.
 
I also have this figure and yes it is amazing and the likness is about 95% to me so if you can make him look more like he did in t2 let me know and how much for a copy.
