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!

 Post subject: Personnel locator cylinder colour
PostPosted: Sat Nov 25, 2006 12:39 am 
Hi all

Due to having a lul at work today, I started a locator like hicks shows Ripley when he gives her the watch trackor thingy, and just wondered what colour it was meant to be.

In the screen shots it looks black, but when you notice the cap at the base, this then seems black the top sort of looks a dark grey, or greenish grey.

I didn’t know if there was a proper colour, or anything goes sort of thing. If there is a proper colour all the better as stuff then matches.

Thanks

:) Don

Yup. Everything was Brown Bess. Even the APC and Dropship.

Hi all

Brown bess it is then. However as brown bess is like chickens teeth to buy, I'll try the Vallejo Model Color which they claim is the same colour.

If anyone can take a picture of there locator outside in daylight, but not direct sunlight i can try and compare once painted. post here or send to me via e-mail

thanks for your time

:)
