Carts Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I have a vague recollection of buying this mail order from Comet miniatures,When it was on sale,Its that long ago now,I am more than likely wrong,The actual design,I believe ,is based on an early Giger design for Alien 3,although since building it,it reminds me of the Alien in Covenant,especially once I re-positioned the head (it was originally pointing down and forward) I was trying to go for a sort of Ivory carving,antiquity,statue, feel to this piece. I had never been overly impressed with this figure,but now its built and painted I kind of like it,Funny how thing turn out Cheers Andy 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I like that... it's got extra thigh-mounted exhausts too! Now... is he gargling, or singing opera? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely gargling,possibly using Misterine mouthwash(contains pulped Misters)Its so important to keep that inner jaw in tip top condition 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spruecutter96 Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 (edited) He (it??) could be trying to catch some flies.... Very nice job, by the way. I will have to build at least one alien kit before I pop me clogs. Thanks for sharing with us. Chris. Edited September 5, 2017 by spruecutter96 Correcting a typo.
