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!

I was on chat last night with Mike and EagleSkull, and we talked about the adjustments I want to make to my armor once I get it.

I am prolly going to go with Vietnam Tiger and paint my armor accordingly, Im also going to adjust the chest, back and groin armor and the ab pad thingie a bit to be more comfy on a me. all the goodies and such will be standard, but I do believe the camo pattern that is canon is really fracking ugly.

and no... Im not really gonna wear my pink cowboy hat... it would sooooo clash with the tigers!!



The tigers will look really good. Awhile back, we had several camo versions photoshopped onto a drawing of a Marine- It looked very cool.

My first armor was od green w/ black "tigerstripes", sort of a 'Nam SOG thing.

The armor was too thin for me, lightweight, but it sits in the closet, prolly not to be worn again...

For what it's worth, here's a pic from a while ago when I was working on the armour. Swedish M90 style (similar to their vehicles) with MultiCam and wore it for a drop into Toronto in 2008:

I recently scored a set of cheap ACU style 3 colour digital camo and took this test shot today:

... so yeah, I would think that you would be well on your way with your ideas, cheers :)
