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 got my first set of Spat armour through late last week and had an outing with it at airosft on Sunday. Friggin sweet! Nothing like running through the woods in armour, pulse rifle blasting :D

So this will no doubt be its first and last outing as flat green armour; tis going in for painting tomorrow. Ill post up pics here as I get them.

I toyed with the idea of putting 'press' on this helmet too, see if 'it' will get old among a new bunch of folk...

Thanks for the compliments guys!

My armours going to be painted by the one and only Fraz, so im kicking my heels on the armour front. I got hold of some multicam since MAA BDUs are out of the question for now, and started to find pouches for my belt.

And the little glass vial goes into the gun like battery.
And the zydrate gun goes somewhere against your anatomy
And when the gun goes off, it sparks and you're ready for surgery

i'm contemplating just using my army issue webbing with my armour

How fast can you explain a joke?
Faster than a punch to the gob from an offended punter?

Funny, but possibly not the best idea...
