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!

Made a spare surplus jacket into my vision of an in-world USCM dropship crew jacket. Not the most accurate patches, but those are in the works.

Banzai88, your "USCM dropship crew jacket" turned out very nice and looks comfortable! Was the printing on the back done using silk screen?

I suggest having it screen printed. I've done a lot of that and have friends who still own businesses doing that if any of that could help. I can answer any production questions anyone has.

Thanks! I made pro-cut vinyl stencils for the front delta and the back; used spray can black paint.

I certainly would have considered screen-printing if I were printing large quantities--this was just a one-off for me. But thanks for the info!

I never would have guessed that the back was done using spray paint. It looks very professional, well done!

This is really neat! Definitely impressed with the spray paint.

Permission to reference this design in my fanworks? Credit will be in author's notes.

FanFiction.net, AO3, There's also audio versions on YouTube, and our WordPress site. We've been trying to upload the audiobooks to Spotify, but getting an RSS feed from WordPress is a massive pain. Either way, there's options for listening or reading.
