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!

Well since the Joe is more or less done other than issues with the voice changer I am now looking at a matching appropriate costume for wifey.

No one has really done a good amanda ripley costume that can either be purchased or otherwise sourced.

I have again put in an inquiry to accosplay.com.

https://www.artstation.com/artwork/Z5lqbX

I have a 3d print of the security access tuner. I should be able to add a potentiometer without issue and mod it slightly to add a push button. I just have to figure out how I want to program things in pygame as no one has built those games yet... I may have to deviate slightly on accuracy to add some functionality without things sticking out too much and allow things to work.
Pi-tft 3.5" diagonal
pi zero w
battery
onoff shim
potentiometer
arcade push button
mini push button
on/off switch
buck boost lipo charger
various screw terminal with 0.1 and 0.2mm pitch.

Found a screen for the access tuner: https://www.digole.com/?p=1271

I think it "might" work...

It should fit, but the only concern are driver issues.

I am still working on the access tuner coding piece. I will have to stick with the arduino due to utter lack of space.

And here are some good stills I can use for reference

Very cool project, There are a bunch of very cool props and costumes that I’d like to make from the game. That being said, I am working on a run of the Ellen Ripley jumpsuit and an Amanda Ripley jumpsuit. These are so far private commissions, but I do plan on offering people spots on each run once I have a finished prototype to show.

For the Amanda Jumpsuit, I’m aiming for something like so:

The under shirt she is seen wearing is basically a nostromo shirt, but in dark blue. Same pink piping, and general construction as the Nostromo crew shirts. Many other characters in the game are seen wearing this shirt design. Obviously a nod to the original design by John Mello.

Amanda:

And this is a shirt I made for a client, based on these themes. Nostromo crew build and elements. Long sleeves. Sevastopol station shoulder patches. Even a Seegson Corp label :)

It’s a dark navy blue linen. Difficult to show off the color properly in the photos, thus why the different lighting

ok ezcosplay is saying they can't offer that suit as a standard offering. I am going back and forth trying to get something posted, otherwise you are going to have to do a custom commision as it stands now.

Well I got the access tuner working, along with parts list to buy. The motion tracker I am trying to redo and accuratize a second one, but I need to get in the mode to want to code and troubleshoot.

Yuppers.

Had to mod it slightly and add in a couple of extra screws to keep it together...
