here are some pics of my current project: The original Alien head by HR Giger....

These pics are with the jaw in place, painted but no dome yet....

These pics show the dome in place, had to remove the lower jaw so it would be stable for pics...

Beautiful! Are you going to tint the front of the clear carapace?

perhaps only slightly more, I like seeing all the grunge under there.

I can't believe that those ridges down the sides of the skull part are actually painted.

Old thread I know, but so damn cool...Always appreciated the original Big Chap. Just struck fear into me when I was a kid. Still waiting for the right 1/6 scale figure.

I begged my mom to take me to see Alien when I was 10 years old (needed to go with an adult since it was rated R). We saw it at the Ridglea theater in Fort Worth. And I slept in a sleeping bag on the floor my parents bedroom for a week afterwards!

Original Head means, same head used in A-L-I-E-N ?
