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!

Hi there Bri...

In a nutshell, its going...slooooowly :)

Been busy busy with 'life' stuff just recently so havn't progressed too far, plus my airbrush is on it's last legs so that has limited what I've been able to get done as well.

Still got a load of stuff to get yet - clear satin and full gloss finish for the paint , more bits of tubing in various widths , make the tendons , sculpt the arm extension thingsand tongue and then cast them , get hold of a weight lifting type support belt, finish off the tubing replacement on the back of the head , buy loads of velcro , grab a fondoo set, cuddly toy , washing machine etc etc - good game good game lol.

Havn't started painting the leg bits yet but they're basecoated and ready to be airbrushed , then coated then stuck n stitched on.

Yes it will be wearable, after all thats what the originals were but mainly as a display piece. Will I end up wearing it? Hmm, jury's out on that one. Sweating my arse off in a rubber or plastic suit just aint as fun as what it was 5 odd years ago but well see. Pulls up slippers and a pipe.

Anyway not much to show but here you go

Cheers

Chris

Yup, you have to wear it; it would be cruel not to!

That is looking good man!

I loved every minute of building my suit! It did take me a few months, but your have done alot so far!!

You'll need to wear it at some of the conventions though! It's an amazing feeling!!

Abe & Dave teamed up and caused a riot at Glasgow collectormania last year! lol


Bri :D
