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 think these were done by Armourer, but I'm not 100% sure.

Cheers,

These were done by me, but I wouldn't use it as ref, because this pic dates from a long time ago and some details are wrong.

Thanks Armourer. :-)

I'm actually going to need to bump the release of these prints back a few days to the end of next week; I had some drafting work come up yesterday and a meeting regarding that this morning (which is important as I'm still unemployed), plus someone put in an offer on a condo I'm selling so the last few days have been busier than expected...

Apologies, guys. :(

Yes - Sorry....been doing a juggling act just lately. :-)

This is what it looked like 3 weeks ago - bottom view is complete now (what you see here was a placeholder) and text is almost done...
Size will be 24x36", same as Nostromo...
Will post an image of the final thing Wednesday....thanks.

The USS SULACO Exterior Blueprints are now available in the Base PX.

Alternatively for those that cannot yet view the PX, please see my blog which will be updated shortly.

Thanks for your support with the Nostromo, and for your patience with the USS SULACO.

-Graham.

Got mine too. These are very nice and a great compliment to the Nostromo print as well.

Great! Glad you like them.

I think these will be capped at around 65, which means half now have been sold.
I capped Nostromo at 100; 40 went fairly quickly and it took over a year and a half to sell the rest.
That way I will be able to move on and concentrate on other projects.
So if you don't want to miss out, please order soon!

Just to say I haven't ordered mine yet due to impending hospital stay, so will order it once I'm home. :)

When I did my USCM targets years ago, I had a buddy of mine who was an architect print them up on his CAD machine. Have you looked into this as an option for printing? You get a very authentic result without the 24" limitation from most printers.
Awesome work.

Thanks Joeranger.
To answer your question.....kind of. I used to work for an architect up until March this year. We had a printer that would take 36" rolls of paper, but the quality wasn't that great. It was okay for doing construction drawing sets but I don't think it would've taken the mylar. We also had an Hp plotter that would give really good quality, but I couldn't print these at work without getting into trouble. Also, to do a big number of plots at once would take ages and would've been more pricey. I'd rather find a third party printers that does it all day, has the equipment that can deal with the mylar (it gets real hot when it goes through the printer) and all I have to do is pick them up and pay for it, so that's what I do right now.
It's working well, the printers I'm using now are doing a great job. I went to another printers before and did a couple of test prints and they were terrible.

OK, just checking. I had office max try to print out my Beatles Love stencils and not only were they unable to print wider than 24in but they were also idiots.

Should have gone to Popcopy
