Posing some NECA Aliens figures. Hicks & Hudson. I don't have the best set up for a display, so I had to make do.
I made some photoshop adjustments, like making it darker, increasing the blue hues, & adding some film grain, to make it more like the film.
Nikon D7000.
Alien saliendo de su huésped. Réplica del 3er Encuentro de FantasÃa y Ciencia Ficción, en Corporación Cultural de Las Condes.
The second of two semi-static posed figures is complete. This version depicts the creature as it appears in the deleted "crab-walker" scene from the 1979 film as Lambert and Parker make a desperate attempt to escape the Nostromo. This deleted scene however was thought comical by many, not well executed on film and revealed too much of the creature...reducing it to nothing more than a man in a rubber suit...something Ridley Scott was avoiding by using smoke and shadow.
Hand sculpted, hand painted. 1:18 scale. I borrowed resin cast parts from the original Alien figure I created a year earlier, made modifications to the torso, neck, shoulders
and legs.
When crouched or "crab walking", the figure is approx. 3" high from highest point on head to the feet. When standing, the figure is approx. 5.25" high, still not fully erect as the leg and hip joints limit the full motion (again, this was originally meant to be a static posed figure). Fortunately I was able to add several articulation points to the figure: Ball jointed neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees and ankles. Vacuum formed PETG dome is removable. The tail is static but is attached using a revoltech joint and can be switched out with a longer tail option.
Original was sculpted using Aves FIXIT sculpt, a two part epoxy. Parts were cast in resin and assembled to build this version. Used Model Masters Polly Scale and Tamiya acrylics.

It's not easy being an alien.
I tried to go to the grocery store for some special alien food and I just felt like crawling back in my ship. Why do people on earth act so mean and racist? I have feelings too. Just because I may look and talk a little different, and have some quirks that earthlings may not understand, doesn't mean I deserve to be treated like a second rate being.
I also don't understand why they continue to fight in wars. My civilization is a peaceful one. We have no wars and no religion. We realized that religion is the main reason for wars.
The more evolved we become the less we need religion because we realize that religion is merely used as a placenta to pacify our spirits and mask the truth. It's kind of like that cool movie "The Matrix" I highly recommend watching this flick. It's a very cool earth movie that also happens to be very deep and has a lot of truth principles.
Needless to say that here on this planet I feel like a rejected alien. This is why I created this blog. By the way, I see that blogs are a good way to unite the world.

Alien She
Sep 3, 2015 – 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 ‘70s 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 ‘90s, with many new chapters forming in recent years. Riot Grrrl’s influence on contemporary global culture is increasingly evident – from the Russian collective Pussy Riot’s 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 – a reflection of the movement’s 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.
Archival Materials from: dumba collective; EMP Museum, Seattle; Interference Archive; Jabberjaw; the Riot Grrrl Collection at the Fales Library & Special Collections, NYU; and many personal collections.

Hi, guys. I will be streaming Alien: Isolation for the PS4 on my Twitch channel today.
The stream will start at 12:00-12:15 PM, for those interested. I'm starting the game new because I accidentally deleted my save file from yesterday. Check this post frequently because I will update stream times after the initial stream.
Note: Game is Rated M and thus only appropriate for mature audiences.

BOX DATE: 2000
MANUFACTURER: Mattel
DOLLS IN LINE: Alien Kelly; Ghost Kayla; Pumpkin Jenny; Cowboy Tommy; Pumpkin Deidre
IMPORTANT NOTES: This outfit was also repackaged on 2001 Halloween Party Chelsie (identical to the 2000 Halloween Party Pumpkin Jenny doll, just renamed).
PERSONAL FUN FACT: When I saw my first plain black bodysuit in the "$5 Bin Bonanza" of 2017, I knew that it was some sort of Kelly costume. What I didn't anticipate was that it was meant to be worn under a pumpkin costume. Looking at it, it's hard to believe, as this could easily pass off as a cat costume, if it had a tail attached to it. My favorite little kid/baby Halloween costume has to be a pumpkin one. I love dressing my Bitty Baby dolls up in my childhood pumpkin getup, even though it's a little worse for the wear with age. Naturally, I couldn't resist buying a duplicated Deidre doll at the local flea market in 2025, because I just LOVED this costume so very much. The seller also had Jenny too...but I ended up picking Deidre instead (though it was a very tough decision, especially given how cheap they were). This ensemble is the absolute most precious thing ever. It's also very well made. I appreciate how the pumpkin is constructed from a felt like material, instead of the shiny fabric used on another pumpkin Kelly costume I have (which peels with age). The shoes don't stay on very well, but it goes to show you h ow detailed this fashion was, since it even has footwear!

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 ‘70s 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 ‘90s, with many new chapters forming in recent years. Riot Grrrl’s influence on contemporary global culture is increasingly evident – from the Russian collective Pussy Riot’s 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 – a reflection of the movement’s 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.
