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!

 Post subject: Drake Custom Funko Pop

Needed this little guy to keep my line up of having a Funko Pop to go with every costume I wear, and as Funko Inc don't seem interested I made one myself
Used a couple of donor pops, some resin printed parts based on shrunk/simplified models of my own full size smartgunner kit, and my rather rusty 25mm miniature painting skills from the 80's/90's

Someone could get some Smooth-ON and do it.
It would be fun to make the ones that "Weylan-Yutani" wont make.

Thanks guys :)
Sadly I don't own a resin printer so I've had to outsource those parts and by the time you factor in 2 donor pops and the cost of those resin parts, and then of course the work to deconstruct, reassemble and paint him I'm not sure people would be willing to pay that much

Yeah was thinking this. I print but don't have resin yet. Easiest way would be to cast the original but still would have to paint etc.

Further to this, I made a matching Vasquez as well :)
Same idea - 2 donor pops (head and body), some custom 3d printed resin parts (I have a resin printer now!) and a new paint job
