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 had this nice resin VP and thought it should match the look of a pulse rifle. I know it’s no screen accurate, but I think it looks cooler.

Check out page three of this thread, I actually just did the same thing a week or so ago!

I think it looks great, and really ties the whole thing together.

Great avatar too!

That actually looks 'right', almost like it was supposed to be that colour. Very nice!

I was watching the "Making of Aliens" video on youtube today and there is a sequence where the prop guy is showing off the lineup of weapons. He talks about the VP70 and looking at the video I could swear there looks like a two-tone finish on there.

Is this just an instance where two different materials looking weird on camera?
