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!

Oioi All!

Well, it looks like after years of exposure to the UKCM Lisa has finaly decided that it is time to join us for some hi jinks and beer!
She is looking to costume for the NSC and despite my winging and whining (I want leather, angry Resurection Ripley :D ) we have settled on either Alien or Aliens Ripley.

What details do we have on the costumes and purchase locations of the same, and i don't want the usual "use google!" answer... why have a dog and bark yourself!

Any hints, tips or suggestions (clean please) appreciated. :D

ONE OF US! ONE OF US!!!

Alien Ripley - Magnoli Clothiers makes the shirts - http://www.magnoliclothiers.com/nostrom ... p-222.html The RPF has a massive thread about the costumes. Loads of great info there - http://www.therpf.com/f24/alien-nostrom ... rms-34755/

Aliens Ripley - Don't think anyone has ever done the blue jumpsuit. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

Well Lisa is good with a needle and thread so i would say make the costume ..
Having made ( my wife and Mother - law made it :) ) go for a Nostromo costume rather than a Ripley costume , it would give Lisa more freedom in regards sewing , etc ... Ripley in Alien wore a Jumpsuit , which i would think today would be pricey to buy.
My Costume , we used a Dickies work shirt and some painters trousers ( or any trousers that are white.!) loads of pockets etc have to be added to both shirt and Trousers ... Badges i got mine from Patches and Pins , they do all the patches and pins for the costume .

Hope that helps ..
