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!

That tutorial is great for the details on how to do it, but the photos don't do it justice! The finished shirt can look way better than what it shown there, so do give it a try!

Hey man I took those pictures! :lol:

It was done on the fly using straight push pins to quickly show wear to make the folds in the collar. :wink:

I was messing around and actually just did those folds on a regular collared shirt of mine...looked pretty legit. I didn't safety pin it or anything, i just kinda held it in place. Not that I'm going to modify my actual dress shirts in this way... :P

Damn, that was a pretty back-handed compliment, wasn't it? Sorry Sarge! I'll get started on those 500 push-ups right after I clean all the hypersleep chambers with my tooth brush...

Forget about it man! :)

You didn't know, and the pics "aren't" that great (hence the laughing smiley :wink: ).

Funny enough- I still have that old knockoff woodland camo jacket in my closet... it's about 26 years old now. :shock: :lol:
