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.

The Alien Run Trail System provides mountain bikers with the opportunity to experience a variety of trails in a high desert landscape. The trails are named for a rumored UFO crash site in the area.
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!

Scale shot of the completed Alien Warrior torso - 1:18 scale - ALIENS. I get requests sometimes to show a scale shot. I think it's important at times to show others what working in miniature means but get so causght up in the project I forget. I've seen some INCREDIBLE scale shots from many talented artists. #aliens #sculpting #alienwarrior #scaleshot
alien adventures in light painting. Model is Echo. Her book can be viewed at www.echonittolitto.com. SOOC
Somebody had alien shoot and I took photo from the setup. At one point alien started even singing :D
The latest Apollo mission uncovered a strange new creature on the moon...Domo!
If anyone's interested, more Domos can be found at www.dinkybox.co.uk (I found it very difficult getting hold of Domos in the UK so hope this will help anyone else who's struggling).
A quick foray into the sunlight. He's from Reddit, so of course he went back indoors pretty quickly to escape. :)
Made for Kevin, for his birthday.
White acrylic yarn, orange, and black acrylic yarn. Orange plastic buttons, black pipecleaner, multi-colored pony beads as stuffing for body/arms/feet, and more white acrylic yarn for stuffing for head, ears, and antenna. This great pattern is the best I'd encountered, and I followed it: scuzzbunny.blogspot.com/2010/03/reddit-alien-pattern.html
My only adjustments were the order I put things together and that I sewed the arms to the body in the back, so that they stayed at his side and still looked nice in the front (my sewing doesn't look great). I also tucked in the ends of the mouth into the head, but then used Elmer's glue to keep it in place. It might need a touch-up later, if he gets tossed around too much. I used the pony beads on the bottom half to give him some weight (he looks a little disco fabulous if you look closely, owing to the bright colors. I ran out of regular stuffing, so leftover white yarn is everything from the head up.
Couldn't help but stop for this ecclectic scarecrow at Shugart Flats today. At least up there winter has a slight handle on things.
who is to say we're the only lifeform exploring the galaxy?
little sleep inspires me, oddly enough. i was cleaning up our new build-a-minifig bar and saw two buzzsaw pieces.
this is the result.
Visitors from another world? ....No, just a very tall highway lighting tower.

Sculpt/Build update of the "Crabwalking" Alien - ALIEN 79 - 1:18 scale. This figure is inspired by a deleted scene for the 1979 Sir Ridley Scott film - ALIEN. You'll understand the figure more if you take a moment to check out the deleted scene - youtu.be/eR5jYeIMBKk
Finished the build yesterday. The final figure has better articulation than originally expected. I can actually pose the figure from a "crawl" to a "rising" position which is a plus since I originally conceived the idea of the figure being a static posed piece. An unpainted resin piece, using revoltech joints in the shoulders, elbows, wrists, upper legs, knees and ankles. The tail is held by a magnet, is static (hard plastic) and comes in three positions: curled, unfurling and straight. #alien #nostromo #deletedscene #lambert #crabwalking #giger #creepy #figure #art #sculpt
