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 think I am ready for Dragon-con.

And I hope my sleeve rolls are a bit more presentable.

The only thing I can see that's missing is the knob guard, maybe the helmet if you want one. :)

Knob guard has to wait. I'm not doing an ab pad yet because I don't want to half ass it. Someday I will get to the helmet.

I don't think it looks bad without the ab-pad, I prefer it without personally.

I should also add that your BBQ and jungle-gym thingy look awesome :)

I think I was too excited to get my gear on and show it off, not realizing how out of place I looked. I know I am not the only one.

Really looking good costume. I wasn't sure about the digital camo, but with the added armor and gear it looks fantastic!

Thanks. Yeah, I wasn't sure about the digital camo either. I was going to use some dyed USMC desert diggies originally but I wanted to find a camo pattern that wasn't county specific in leu of something SA. I'm not crazy about the amount of light tan colors as it adds too much of an Earthy feel instead of a interplanetary look. My plan is to dye everything a greyish tone. Still need to test the coloring out though... at least until I get something different.

I apologized if I glossed over it, but are there source files? Or did you just free hand the whole piece?

Great, great work!!!
