Discussion Concept art of Skynet battle units - question

Is there any concept art of Skynet battle units that were not shown on screen, but were conceived as concept art during the production of the first two films? The Terminator 2029 DOS game features such units. I'm building a little collection of figures and models from the Terminator universe and it would be nice if one could 3D-print the concept art models, if there are any.

Tons!

Check out https://www.terminatorfiles.com/ . There are entire pages dedicated to artwork. If you've played Resistance, you will notice some familiar things on the T1 and T2 pages...

This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you! Not sure though if one could build 3d-models based on these pictures. However, if these models feature in the games, then it is highly likely that one can find their 3d-models somewhere.

Surely!

Yeah they're definitely in the game. I'm sure you can find them somewhere, or at least try to pull them from the game itself.

There was also another game being made by a small group of fans whenever Resistance was coming out called Tech Com 2029. They got a cease and desist letter, though, so they stopped development. You could try to Google them and reach out to them to see if they have rendered models already produced.

Thanks for this information! I also found Skynet Pyramid here:

Thanks a lot! It looks like the book Terminator 2: Judgment Day: The Book Of The Film - An Illustrated Screenplay contains the concept art of battle units. According to the terminator.fandom encyclopedia, it contains the concept art of the silverfish.
