A brand spanking new X-files themed tattoo! Go check it out on the marketplace.
All system layers and omega applier included.
This was on of the first shots I did, months ago. Originally it was a Easter Egg joke, but I like the shot, mainly because of the Alien looming over our intrepid astronauts.
The Reflections were all accidental... and its when I started to see if I could do a moody image with Lego Minifigs. The Picture is exactly how I took it, the only changes were to crop, and black out a slight reflection of the arm I used to hold the LED reflection.
I'll definitely re-do this on with better lighting.
Aliens is the pinnacle of action sci-fi. One of the best sequels to a movie ever made. It boasted some great vehicles for the marines and the Dropship was no exception. Menacing looking and capable it always has your back.
Ichibantoys captures it perfectly i think.

Alien She
Sep 3, 2015 â Jan 9, 2016
Alien She, curated by Astria Suparak + Ceci Moss, is the first exhibition to examine the lasting impact of Riot Grrrl on artists and cultural producers working today. A pioneering punk feminist movement that emerged in the early 1990s, Riot Grrrl has had a pivotal influence, inspiring many around the world to pursue socially and politically progressive careers as artists, activists, authors and educators. Emphasizing female and youth empowerment, collaborative organization, creative resistance and DIY ethics, Riot Grrrl helped a new generation to become active feminists and create their own culture and communities that reflect their values and experiences, in contrast to mainstream conventions and expectations.
Riot Grrrl formed in reaction to pervasive and violent sexism, racism and homophobia in the punk music scene and in the culture at large. Its participants adapted strategies from earlier queer and punk feminisms and â70s radical politics, while also popularizing discussions of identity politics occurring within academia, but in a language that spoke to a younger generation. This self-organized network made up of teenagers and twenty-somethings reached one another through various platforms, such as letters, zines, local meetings, regional conferences, homemade videos, and later, chat rooms, listservs and message boards. The movement eventually spread worldwide, with chapters opening in at least thirty-two states and twenty-six countries.* Its ethos and aesthetics have survived well past its initial period in the â90s, with many new chapters forming in recent years. Riot Grrrlâs influence on contemporary global culture is increasingly evident â from the Russian collective Pussy Riotâs protest against corrupt government-church relations to the popular teen website Rookie and the launch of Girls Rock Camps and Ladyfest music and art festivals around the world.
Alien She focuses on seven people whose visual art practices were informed by their contact with Riot Grrrl. Many of them work in multiple disciplines, such as sculpture, installation, video, documentary film, photography, drawing, printmaking, new media, social practice, curation, music, writing and performance â a reflection of the movementâs artistic diversity and mutability. Each artist is represented by several projects from the last 20 years, including new and rarely seen works, providing an insight into the development of their creative practices and individual trajectories.
Artists: Ginger Brooks Takahashi (Pittsburgh), Tammy Rae Carland (Oakland), Miranda July (Los Angeles), Faythe Levine (Milwaukee), Allyson Mitchell (Toronto), L.J. Roberts (Brooklyn), Stephanie Syjuco (San Francisco) and more.

Model: Alien Box
Design: Jorge Jaramillo
Paper: Kaleidoscope Paper by •Julia Schönhuber and simple DC Kraftpaper from a roll
Size: square of 21 x 21cm and 20 x 20 cm
This is another beautiful geometrical box design by Jorge Jaramillo that I had the pleasure to testfold.
I folded them some few weeks ago and find today some time to photograph them with nice weather here in Bavaria :).

Mind-boggling alien costume photographed at Polaris 21 (Toronto, July 2007). Part of a group of costumers that included a marine and a predator. I played with the light, contrast, and saturation, added a little diffuse glow and cropped the image (in Photoshop). I'm not sure I like this version better than the clean image. I may post the original with the hope of receiving constructive comments.
A strange and unusual light fitting at the outdoor menu table at the Mesa Lunga tapas restaurant on Gouger Street. There are 2 of these greeny lights, attached to each other and the wall by what looks like metal pipe fittings, like strange alien roses.

Their queen is dead and the hive has been left to flounder on its own. On a world bereft of its only guiding force, a schism is taking place.
Two strains of Xenomorph, formerly united by one all-powerful mother, now divide their forces for a world-shattering, acid-drenched civil war.

My LEGO version of the iconic 1979 ALIEN Xenomorph.
This has been an exceptionally challenging and and mind-expanding build. Working from references to create these organic shapes was a wholly new type of MOCing for me. I learned soooooo much during the late nights tinkering away at this guy.
Also, sorry for the delay in posting the shots of this bad boy. I had to move right after the convention and hadn't gotten a chance to photograph it. I still want to work on it further and finish up the bust ( if not the whole thing! ) someday. Again, I hope to have a REALLY pro photo setup again soon, fingers crossed for a home-loan and the perfect place to move into.
Comments and feedback much appreciated!
Nobody imagined that the alien invasion would begin in rural Wexford!!
Part of the windfarm near Kilmuckridge in Co. Wexford. I'm not sure if the photo gives the true scale of the size of these things, They're massive! See the trees for scale. When the tip of the rotor is at its highest point of rotation, the overall structure has a height of approximately 100 metres (330 ft).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From wikipedia:
The windfarm commenced operation in 2005 and has a capacity of 42 MW and consists of 21 gearless E-70 E4 Enercon wind turbines. It is clearly visible from the R742 regional road. Some of the windmills are within a couple of hundred metres of it.
The produced energy in one year is 110 GWh. This equals the yearly consumption of 125,000 people or 31,500 four person households. Within 3.7 months of operation the wind energy converters (WEC) at this site had produced an amount of energy equivalent to that used in their construction and installation, including production of the materials. For the next 20 years the wind farm will be producing electricity without using any resources and without pollution.
The E-70 turbines have rotor diameters of 71 m, so the swept area is 3,959 m². The nacelle, in the hub height of 64 m, is assessable through a ladder within the tower, which is 4.2 m in diameter at the base and 2.9 m at top. The nacelle itself has a diameter of 5m, the height of a two storey building. The turbine rotor spins with a speed between 6 and 21.5 rpm and the rotor hub is directly coupled to the synchronous generator without a gear box for transmission. The turbine switches in at a wind speed of about 2.3 m/s. It reaches its nominal output at a speed of 12.5 m/s, where the pitch system of the rotor blades starts to limit the electrical power output automatically. Above wind speeds of 25 m/s the power output is gradually reduced again until the turbine switches off for protection at about 34 m/s.
The electricity is generated at voltages of around 400 V and up to 2,300 As, and at variable frequency proportional to the variable speed of the rotor. All produced energy is converted into direct current (DC) by a rectifier inside the nacelle and conducted to the inverters located in the bottom of the turbine tower. The inverters modulate the DC into alternating current (AC) with 50 Hz grid-compliant frequency. Each turbine has a transformer inside the tower which transforms the voltage to the 20 kV internal grid voltage of the wind farm. At the tail station, a wind farm transformer increases the voltage to 110,000 V and it is fed into the ESB (national power company) network through 21 km underground cables.
The coastal location is close to Cahore Point on the Irish Sea.
While passing through Roswell, NM I saw this sign and had to share it with everyone. I guess Roswellians are friendly and welcome aliens to their restaurants.

Chiss Tank: STOP moving around so much! this is a fight, not a dance!
Beth: Serana, some help? this guy's tough!
Serana: I'm a little busy right now dealing with this Stormcloak traitor!
Stormcloak: shutup you! Admiral Thrawn's side is the winning side!
Carnivorous, giant, alien jelly fish have come out of the ocean, and are ready to cover and devour the world.
See them slither and slide and flare up. They catch people unawares and overwhelm them, cover them and drown everything and everyone in a toxic slime.
Beware! Take care!
More creative editing in CREATIVE LICENCE
This Alien Art Sculpture has a pretty blue and yellowish face. Her face is surrounded with waves of twisty color that seem to undulate and vibrate. This is part of her skin! Her beautiful blue eyes also have a shimmering gold color in them. Atop her head are three antennas. The twisty swirls of color also travel up the antennas.
I used clear glass cabochons for the eyes and hand painted the back of them to create the effect that I wanted. I also hand sculpted her face creating refined and delicate features. I then added all the twisty strands of undulating colors. This is all original and created by me.
In this alternate version of this image, I have isolated the face by creative heavy surrounding shadows. I have also reworked the facial features, using multiple textures.
Little alien grasshopper.
All the shadows were made by me, bottom with a lens hood and top with a leaf. I find it a little more interesting like this.
