Sculpt progress on the Space Jockey - ALIEN 79 - 1:18 scale. Began sculpting the arms of the creature using Aves FIXIT s my sculpting material. Sharp/clean areas will be weathered, softened. The next step will be the shoulders, body and upper back portaion of the chair. Hands will be last before moving on to the rest of the piece. More to come! Figure and diorama updates to come as well - just wanting to get a good chunk of this guy completed. ‪#‎alien‬ ‪#‎nostromo‬ ‪#‎spacejockey‬ ‪#‎hrgiger‬ ‪#‎lv426‬ ‪#‎derelict‬ ‪#‎avesfixitsculpt‬ ‪#‎sculpture‬ ‪#‎diorama‬

Marines, we are LEAVING!

This papercraft is the Derelict on LV-426 (codenamed Origin and aka the Alien Derelict), a crashed Juggernaut-type Engineer spacecraft from the Alien film, the paper model is created by Vger1981.

Some time in 2122, a warning signal being broadcast from the derelict was detected by Weyland-Yutani ...

Sculpt progress on the 1:18 scaled Space Jockey - ALIEN 1979.

 

Sculpt material used - Aves FIXIT Sculpt by Aves Clay

 

So I'm only a couple of hours sculpt time to completing the back on the Space Jockey! I am currently working on the piping that is located behind the head of the creature.

 

Completed the sculpt to the other side and I'm happy with how it all balanced out. Took a couple of adjustments which meant sanding down a cured area and sculpting over but that's the name of the game when working with epoxy. Glad that's over with! :)

 

When the back is done, I plan to begin working on the front of the Jockey, where the eventual "cannon" will connect. I will take a break however and work on other projects that need attention (including some alien work).

 

I hope you all enjoy the updated images and for all you Alien fans out there, I hope you had a GREAT ALIEN DAY!

My first H.R. Giger sculpt complete! Well, for the exception of the Alien of course. This piece will be multiplied and line the lower corridor wall of the derelict diorama I am working on. Sculpted using Aves FIXIT sculpt. #sith_fire30 #giger #hrgiger #alienderelict #biomechanicalart

Surgery went very well - Sculpt update on The Space Jockey - 1:18 scale - ALIEN. Spoke earlier about receiving new resource images that provided more detail on the creatures skull - particularly it's lower jaw. Come to find out the jaw is split....and unfortunately mine was not. I say "was" because last night I broke out the dremel and some smaller sculpting tools, carefully worked out the existing, now fully cured jaw and replaced is with a sculpted split version. May be difficult to see in these images since they were taken with my smartphone but I'm happy it's more film accurate now. Even thought the sculpt as a whole will not look exactly as the Giger set piece (trying to get it close), items like the jaw need to be accurate and was worth the risk to fix it smile emoticon ‪#‎alien‬ ‪#‎spacejockey‬ ‪#‎nostromo‬ ‪#‎derelict‬ ‪#‎giger‬ ‪#‎sculpture‬ ‪#‎biomechanical‬ ‪#‎diorama‬ ‪#‎avesfixit‬

Sculpt update on The Queen - Aliens (86) - and the Egg Morpher - Aliens: Defiance - Dark Horse Comics. Both 1:18 scale.

 

The Queen

 

Completed the rough sculpt of the lower mandible and teeth. The lower mandible is a skeletal sculpt for the moment while I adjust and refine the teeth. After the lower teeth are complete, flesh detail will be added to the mandible.

 

The teeth are being sculpted on a separate pallet, so when completed can have a mold made and cast in clear resin. The teeth are individually sculpted using Aves FIXIT sculpt, a two-part epoxy from Aves Studio LLC. Once cured, I've begun refining each using dental tools and fine-grit sandpaper. Hope to have them at a full shine similar to the top set of teeth soon.

 

I still have to sculpt the gum line for the lower teeth and the pallet will eventually be set deeper into the lower mandible than what you see here. Many adjustments will be made after castings are made. Then additional casts will be made.

 

Do the top and bottom teeth line up? Close but not really - not too concerned with that since my sculpt will feature multiple head sculpts and not a jointed jaw. So perfect alignment isn't a priority here...although I will do my best to get it as close as possible before making molds.

 

The Egg Morpher

 

Began filling the detail to the back "pipes" of the beast. I've also begun the sculpt of the creature's hands which will be very similar to the Giger Alien hands but larger. The rough sculpt right now resemble Bugs Bunny gloves and not that of the nightmarish xenomorph but no worries, that will all change....just how I work.

 

Hope you enjoyed the updates!!! Trying to get an update knocked out each week. If not, every other week for sure with updates in between.

 

Questions are welcome! Thanks again!

Looking more and more like an air lock don't ya think?

Sculpt progress on the Neomorph - 1:18 scale - Alien: Covenant. Completed the initial head sculpt of the beast - open mouth, attack. The next step will be to mold and cast successfully. At that point, I can take a couple quality casts and mod the sculpt to create the other two variants. Began work on the upper torso of the Neomorph - update coming soon.Sculpted using Aves FIXIT Sculpt from Aves Studio LLC.

Sculpt update on The Queen - (Aliens 86) and the Egg Morpher (Aliens: Defiance). All 1:18 scale, sculpted using Aves FIXIT sculpt by Aves Studio LLC.

 

Began sculpting the lower jaw of the Queen. Started with a rough sculpt of the jaw, eyeballing the proportion and adding addition girth to the sculpt that once cured can be reduced through carving and sanding.

 

You can see my progression via the images attached. The next step will be to add a separate gumline that will include a set of lower teeth. Again, separate from the jaw so I can cast the piece in clear resin when it's time for replication.

 

The "neck" of the queen will need to be reworked once the master casts have been made. I'm using the smaller Revoltech Queen figure as an articulation reference for much of the articulation points for my sculpt.

 

For the Eggmorpher from Defiance, I've been sculpting the details to the back of the creature including the "pipes" as I like to call them as well as the separate spinal piece that emerges just below the back of the neck.

 

Next challenge for this sculpt will be the hands and the upper legs.

 

I've got a ton of pieces to mold and cast. And since just getting over a bad illness and this hurricane scare, it put me off a couple weeks. Sorry about that. I will always try for sure to get one update a week...don't want anyone to think I've fallen off LOL!

 

Hope you enjoyed the update! Always, more to come!

Paint progress on "The Beast:- ALIEN 79 - 1:18 scale. A couple quick smartphone shots. The final head sculpt has been painted for this figure - that's 7 head variants total! This time I chose to paint the dome completely opaque at the front and picking up a little texture to go along with it. Better images later so you can see the inner jaw resting inside the partially opened mouth. I have the Alien" Isolation beast to paint up, the bodies of the 79 version and several other head sculpts and bodies to complete. Will spend a few more weeks painting then it will be back to sculpting some figures and the Space Jockey along with some diorama building. ‪#‎alien‬ ‪#‎nostromo‬ ‪#‎painting‬ ‪#‎sculpting‬ ‪#‎giger‬

Hey Bishop! Do the thing with the knife!

Sculpt update on the Queen. ALIENS (86) - 1:18 scale. Work in progress.

 

Began sculpting the teeth. More precise, the maxillary teeth (upper jaw). First I built the upper maxilla that will fit separately in the head, marking each point where the teeth will be inserted. What I love about FIXIT is that during it's final hour of curing, you can carefully shape pieces to fit other parts of the sculpt without it permanently attaching or curing to that particular part. Example, the maxilla which I shaped to fit the roof of the mouth. This will help in molding and replication later.

 

Next was to sculpt each tooth, two at a time, one on either side. Once fully cured, I carve the teeth into shape using dental tools, giving them the appearance of settling into the gum line of the maxilla. So this process of sculpting, curing, carving took a good week to complete.

 

While that was going on I sculpting more detail to the head, This version will feature the lips fully extended, mouth fully drawn taut. I intend to do another version of the head having the mouth partially closed and relaxed.

 

Still refining the teeth. I need to fill in some spots and reduce others. Then I will add gum tissue around each tooth. This piece will later be cast in clear resin so I may have the teeth appear to be translucent.

 

More to come!! Will begin working on the lower jaw soon then back to other projects that deserve some attention.

"The Stowaway" - Build progress on "the beast" as part of the Narcissus Diorama Build - ALIEN 79 - 1:18 scale. Most parts of the creature haven't been assembled yet and have been laid against one another to give a sense of what the final figure will look like. Articulation will be in the neck, shoulders, elbows and wrists. Everything else will be static. It will have alternate heads including one with the inner mouth extended. ‪#‎alien‬ ‪#‎narcissus‬ ‪#‎stowaway‬ ‪#‎giger‬ ‪#‎xenomorph‬ ‪#‎biomechanical‬ ‪#‎nostromo‬ ‪#‎sculpture‬

Marines, we are LEAVING!

Some better views of the Marines and their helmets.

 

This one I painted in an approximation of the tan camo pattern on the Marines uniforms.

Finished building and sculpting Amanda Ripley's backpack and motion tracker. Pack is held to the back by a magnet. Tracker will have a decal to show tracking. 1:18 scale - Alien: Isolation #alienisolation #amandaripley #sith_fire30

 

Sculpt progress on The Engineers - 1:18 scale - Prometheus. I included a scale shot of the creatures compared to the human sculpts I am working on - in this case Elizabeth Shaw. #prometheus #engineers #alien

Working on the version of the beast from ALIEN: Isolation. The big adjustment will be the legs. Other adjustments will need to be made but I will be installing some of my own preferences as well starting with the exposed teeth of the creature in the game - for the sculpt it will have the same mouth structure as my Big Chap figure. #alien #alienisolation #bigchap #sith_fire30 #Sevastopol

Build progress of the Narcissus Shuttle - ALIEN 79 - 1:18 scale. So much progress but still only scratched the surface. Worked primarily on the wall panel for "The Stowaway", building the details around the slumbering beast. A mix of scratch building using styrene sheet, sculpting using a two part epoxy and casting replication. Nothing is finalized of course, even the side tanks are held in place using some wax clay...I need to construct t a rack. So much more to go. I may begin building the framework leading to the supply closets and the airlock before moving onto the next project in progress (figure sculpting). Hope you enjoy the progress so far!

Sculpt update on the Alien Queen - ALIENS - 1:18 scale.

 

Sculpted using Aves FIXIT Sculpt from Aves Studio.

 

I'm close to completing the mouth of the Alien Queen - finished sculpting the lower gum line around the teeth of the lower jaw. Also started to flesh out the lower jaw a bit but have much more detailing to add before it's considered complete.

 

Both the top and lower set of teeth have been sculpted separate and will be cast eventually using a semi-clear resin..or crystal clear, and painted afterward.

 

This coming week I want to complete the teeth and lower jaw and set up the components to the head for molding and casting. From there we go to the neck as well as the Queen's inner jaw.

 

More to come! Thanks for taking a look! #alien #aliens #alienqueen #egglayer #yourhighness #xenomorph #customactionfigure #art #sculpture #giger studioADI #studioadi

Completed 1:18 head sculpt/paint app of the Alien in the 1979 Sir Ridley Scott motion picture ALIEN. This will be the first in three seperate head sculpt variations. Some shots I used a bright light to blow through the clouded dome to capture the look underneath. Others I left as is. I can't wait to begin sculpting the body to this guy - the xenomorph bug has bitten me and I want to do more!!! LOL! I'm really enjoying this project! www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYHX8AMKrTA&feature=share&...

Back to some scratch building - Build update on the Narcissus Shuttle - ALIEN 79 - 1:18 scale. My final "static posed" alien will be the stowaway. In order to create the stowaway correctly I must build the section of the shuttle where it finds it's seclusion. Nothing earth shattering at this point but the build on both the section and the beast has begun. ‪#‎alien‬ ‪#‎nostromo‬ ‪#‎narcissus‬ ‪#‎shuttle‬ ‪#‎stowaway‬ ‪#‎diorama‬ ‪#‎shipbuilding‬ ‪#‎scratchbuilding‬ ‪#‎sheetstyrene‬

The Brooklyn Alien, from Peter Kokis AKA Brooklyn RobotWorks. April 26th is Alien Day, celebrating the 1979 classic 'Alien'. The exoskeleton of the Xenomorph is always a blast to perform in. I love this shot from 2013 by Beth Brown...on the streets of Brooklyn NY USA. Hunt. Feed. Spawn. www.BrooklynRobotWorks.com

As seen in the film, the other three Engineers in their chambers did not survive their slumber....something "burst" out.... It has not been confirmed what happened though. Melted canopy - PROMETHEUS 1:18 scale. The three corpses inside the chambers will be weathered husks using casts of the surviving Engineer, and the canopies will clouded to resemble chemical burn and reaction. #Prometheus #engineer #deacon #chestburster

I believe this is the only toy figure of Ripley available in the white emergency spacesuit. Well, besides the Kubrick mini.

Sculpt progress on the Derelict Corridor - ALIEN 79 - 1:18 scale. Want to make sure the floor of the corridor is just as organic as the walls.....sculpting material is Aves FIXIT. Currently using several textural pads of flesh and stone. Even using a few textures gained from rocks found in the back yard. ‪#‎derelict‬ ‪#‎lv426‬ ‪#‎alien‬ ‪#‎giger‬ ‪#‎biomechanical‬ ‪#‎art‬ ‪#‎sculpture‬

I remember the master concept designer Ron Cobb speaking about how he loved to draw corridors...well, i love to build them in 1:18 scale! LOL! Here is corridor portal C to the Nostromo inspired by the 1979 film ALIEN. Both panels were made using sheet styrene. Seam lines need to be removed and the sculptural/detailed elements need to be added. These two panels will then have molds made and cast a couple times.
