I'm not an Alien fan - too much like the old 1950's B-movie horror films - but that's a cracking build Si!Gern
Cheers Dave, I was inspired by your 'bug' dio. And was trying to figure out how to get the figures in a setting that is like Aliens. I appreciate your kind words and thank you.

Looks good, the last shot is very like the film and the game Doom
Cheers Graham. Now that's a game and film I haven't played or watched in a few years...DOOM! A comparison I had not thought about.

I was thinking the "low budget" effect, like (un)painted cotton fluff...
Ah, with you know Steve. Typical of me to think of the hardest option lol. I like your thinking and will see what I have lying around and what I can use.

A great build Si, and the last two photo's are the best in my opinion very atmospheric
Cheers Ian, I like the last two also, despite my camera being naff, with a bit of computer magic they came out rather well.

LOL, now that is some challenge to re-create Newt, suppose we could do her in the nest near the end of the film.

I have added these pictures here. I was experimenting in using two part Epoxy to create some dripping and globular melting metal after the Alien's acidic blood had attacked it. I also added some red to the ammo counter on Hick's pulse rifle. But that is it, honest, no more fiddling. I have also added some action shots (by that I mean attempted) using a low light setting.

Thank you James, glad you like it. I agree, the film seems to be timeless and is still a great Sci-Fi action flick.

My first project out of my new Mancave is an oldie ( apologies for a thread resurrection). I have gone back to this dio as there were some things I wanted to do to finish it off but couldn't working in the house...they niggled me.

I have added better sweat effects to Hicks, more glistening goo to the Alien and a hint of green on the melted metal to denote acid blood. Also in the rafters there is some alien hive slime with strands and a Facehugger...will it get Hicks...who knows?
