Happy Novvember! In much the same way as I redid the ADU mech, I've reduced the alien Crescent to its component parts and started again.
Once again, the big saucer pieces are integral to the build (although I'm honestly sick of them, they're so big and blocky!), along with the lime fins. I've also used some of the larger shells to round out the back of the cockpit, so all told this is a rather chonky build.
I started with the triangular-finned prongs, and from there the build continued. I do wish I had a third 16x4 wedge, as I've used two for the wings, and I think for maximum absurdity it would have been good for it to be the stabiliser too. No such luck though, so I made a more sensibly-proportioned fin.
This will be coming to Bricktastic in February, along with the rest of the ADU/alien invaders. Come say hello!
Not even Aliens could stop MONDAY from arriving on time!

I have always wanted to experiment with modeling balloons. Very funny like being equipped with an exoskeleton. The hard light emphasize the new body shape with strong shadows. With the added insulation from the balloons and layer of air, the alien suit is quite warm. The alien therefore loses some fluid. It still has to acclimatize.

Two shots of the same stump from different sides. One side an alien, the other a horse. I'll have to play with these!

This came about by accident. I have been folding some wonderful, cute models by Riki Saito and folded the white alien from Jo Nakashima's excellent video tutorial at:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gQurMRSjzY
While I was folding I noticed I had made a mistake and didn't have enough paper left to finish the legs. Rather than re-do the model, I decided to change the legs into a skirt. I then folded another one, correctly, from green paper. When I put the two together I thought how the white one looked like a bride, so decided that this was an alien wedding.
Grateful thanks to Riki for the wonderful designs, and to Jo Nakashima for all of his wonderful tutorials.
Pairs of these units were first seen supporting frames of colony Branton as they revolted against local SU forces to devastating effect. The initial reports that were sent back assumed they were new Ijad units. This was the SUs working theory until one was downed and inspected. The pilot, still alive, attacked the recovery squad tearing the arm off a Chub before being killed.
Made for Mobile Frame Zero.
Ant-mimicking Treehopper (Cyphonia clavata) From the side, this looks like an ant. From above, it looks like an alien.
The first Alien movie may be the only movie I’ve seen in this long franchise, but it’s my favorite horror movie of all time. That being said, I was really excited to see that Alien: Covenant was returning to its roots as a horror movie first, rather than the sequel, Aliens. I also really enjoyed the Martian, so I seeing that Ridley Scott had returned to form, I checked out Alien: Covenant last night! So was Alien: Covenant as good as the first Alien that I love so much, or was it more like the rest of the franchise, which from what I’ve heard, are quite bad. Let’s check it out!!
Good: Now this movie was surprisingly intellectual. Now I heard that Prometheus explored some of these questions that the movie poses, but I haven’t seen Prometheus, so this movie really gave me the desire to watch it! I love learning about the origins of the Xenomorphs, it was so interesting! But with these great intellectual moments come some great suspense and scares. The xenomorphs in this movie were really awesome, the CGI really helped them be more active than when they are just a dude in a suit. Now let’s talk about the performances. Everyone in this movie was really good but the obvious stand out Michael Fassbender. You could really tell he was having a great time in his role and he really just chewed up his lines, making him both creepy and funny at times too.
Bad: Now I’m going to be honest, I should’ve seen Prometheus before seeing this movie. There was so much confusing stuff that I didn’t understand because they were all referencing Prometheus. I feel like I would enjoy this movie a lot more if I had seen Prometheus. My next complaint is that there were a lot of scenes in the movie where I felt like I’ve already seen them! Most of movie just felt like a rip off of Alien, like there were times where I called things would happen because I’ve seen Alien, and they would happen. I’m not talking about certain themes or motifs or anything, I’m talking about actual scenes. Because of that, most of this movie is very predictable, especially the ending, you can see it coming from a mile away. The last complaint I have is that the first act is a little slow until the alien shows up. I understand that Ridley Scott was trying to build up the characters in the first act, but I feel like they should’ve done some more interesting things.
Overall, this movie is the kind of movie that I’d only see once maybe, but it really inspired me to see Prometheus. It had some great suspense and scares, but with a rather messy and unoriginal basic plot. For these reasons, I’m giving Alien: Covenant a 7.5/10. I had a great time with this movie, but I don’t plan on seeing it again any time soon, instead, I want to go check out the other Alien movies! If you’ve seen Alien: Covenant, let me know what you thought about it in the comments below, and remember, no spoilers!

My son asked for a Halloween themed shoot in his astronaut costume. He liked the result.
Stock images have been used for the background and the alien (obviously).
© David K. Edwards. It pulls your head forward and briskly sucks out your eyeballs (it does something additional and cute if you are wearing glasses). Then it eats your face, devouring almost all of the skin and muscle. When finished, it emits a series of high-pitched burps that are somehow even more terrifying than its strident hunting call. In the photograph, note also the green puercoceptor organ, which curls when inactive.
Twisting Light #3. The next experimental shot exploring the patterns formed by light passing through shaped and formed plastics. These are analog images taken direct onto 35mm film.
I'd be interested to see what they remind you of.
Yet another variant, this one can produce offspring in the interim without a Queen!
