The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Stunning work as always Steve.

Can you post some picts of the kit parts?

That's what got the ball rolling on the DS helmet.

Yes Sir.

It will have lights in it and on top. We plan on making the CO2 spray to come out the top on the helmet too. The canister will be located in the back pack.

This is going to be sweet.

You guys are doing a top job mate. I'm really looking forward to seeing this finished and painted up.
It's not often enough that we see new Alien props being made.

Cheers

It looks great.. Sure is coming along nice.. Just make one side of the light brighter then people will squint on one side.. :wink:
Is this something you plan on making copies of. It would look cool on one of my shelves. Not to mention doing a USCM space suite.

This is the master. We are making molds off this one. So the copies with be lighter. The lamp will be an add on. So we can do the white Ripley helmet or the Bronze ones with the lamp.

Thanks for the nice words.
Steve

Okay,

The Hawk kit is here and thanks Fred in (France) for getting me the man covers. Still pending the car. I have to wait to install some of the bits until I get the rest so I can make sure the spacing is all correct.



I assembled the first set of chest armor. have a look.

Thanks
