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!

Clocked this over on the RPF... Made by Pete Mander for Alien Vs Predator : Seed ( Wasn't it, Dropshipbob? ;) )

Yep
That was indeed made for the movie S.E.E.D.
And it was by Pete.
Too bad it never made it into the movie.
I was one of the lucky people that got to work on SEED.

Keep an eye out for Trenches now.
You will see Pete's latest creature creation !

Yup, that vid inspired me to build a near-working mock-up in meccano. However, my current head/neck has nowhere near enough room for it.

Still thinking ... when I get myself sorted out, I *will* do some animatronics. However, to do anything close to that I will need to sculpt a head that has more than a matchbox-sized space for mechanism.

That's a bit good that isn't it! :)

I'm just trying to imagine how many emergency call outs the Ambulance Service will get if Pug ends up with a rig like that!!!

:shock:

Beaten to it.

I do seem to recall also that Pete was quite dissapointed by the lackluster reception on these and other related boards to the primiere of his film.

It's really too bad, he worked so hard on it.:(

TBH, I didn't realise that S.E.E.D. had been finished/released. I have seen the out-takes/behind the scenes/trailer vids, but never the final film.

I'm downloading/watching ASAP :)

Final Film
