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!

Great size on those things!

I'd love to see closeups and a tutorial on how you went about making them!

Thanks. Made they eggs with sheets of cardboard first. Hot gluing in a star pattern. Then wrapping plastic sheeting (Pallet wrap) around the cardboard frame several times. Then using a quart of latex green paint. Then coating with a small can of liquid latex and hot gluing veins. The lips of the eggs were soft foam which a wired and wrapped in plastic sheeting. I managed to keep it to a $20 CDN budget. Very light.
