AvPG Exclusive: Prometheus Concept Art

Posted 237 Comments

Ahem…As a few of you figured out the Space Jockey concept art was in fact an April Fool’s from the pencil of none other than our very own amazingly talented Cellien.

And as well that we’ve also made the 10 Most Heartbreaking April Fool’s Movie News Scoops (2011). And there’s more. Other movie sites picked up the image and had a bit of a run with it: Aint It Cool News, JoBlo and FilmShaft.

ORIGINAL APRIL FOOL’S POST: This finally answers the question is Prometheus related to Alien. We’ve scooped an exclusive sneak peak at some concept art from 20th Century Fox:

AvPG Exclusive: Prometheus Concept Art

Most interesting is the inclusion of the Predator shoulder-cannon in the design and the lack of legs. Click here for the full size image (currently hosted on my personal host, it’ll be in the Gallery soon) and keep an eye out for more exclusive content.

    Oh, come on SiL. Lighten up, man. You act as if the whole franchise is coming to an end.

    I think it's a lovely aesthetic, and adds a whole new depth to the jockey mythos. Are they Predators? Only time will tell.
    Cant help but Doubt that they are predators. Given the comics.... and the fact that the jockey in Alien 1 was like twice as tall as any pred if it stood up.

    still pisses me of that they have so much predator influence, i was hoping for something original. I hope that if the final desing is similar to predatos they at least give a cannonic explanation of why the two species are so dam similar in gear.

    UPDATE: I just read the 9th page.... dammit

    I think it's f**king awesome it went as far as it did. I keep randomly cracking up thinking about it.

    And Cellien, you got skills dude. Even though we knew it was fake, it was good enough to fool a lot of people. Awesome, awesome work mate  :)

    Lowry?

    That may be a problem on the account of being dead,good one Hicks ;)

    Cool pic though,love the style,glad its a joke though :laugh:

    No, seriously...The artist's name is Lowry...He's not dead. I hope he's not.

    :laugh: I thought it was a clever sign that it was a joke,Lowry being a famous but long dead artist,read too much into it i suppose ;)

    Still an awesome pic though (minus the cannon) :laugh:
