Can't say I'm a fan of the head shape or colouration

Yeah, too much UFO creature vibe for my taste.



Or even like...

Can't say I'm a fan of the head shape or colouration but I adore Huante's other work on the Alien, which unfortunately was substantiated with more bestial versions in the final product. I'd love to see- any of his work make it uncompromised to film. The closest I feel we've got so far is the Covenant Chestburster.

If it was translucent it could work but I would prefer as well some of his blueish tones he uses so well on other sketches (though it would probably loose some of its neat details).

Not exactly from Prometheus or Covenant but boy do I like the feminine shapes on this bad girl. This is probably what I'd like to see on the next one.

Can you imagine how creepy it would be to see it smiling that hideous smile at you while those chest nostrils flare with its breathing...?

I like it.. wonder how it lays/spreads spore pods.

The pods in Alien/Aliens/Alien 3/Prometheus are very womb-like and somewhat comforting, these are more industrial and machine-like.  A little more claustrophobic/sarcophagus like the pods in 2001:  A Space Odyssey.

You could not pay me enough to get into one of those.  That is a literal coffin.

Only when HAL turns off the life support.

Before you fall asleep, there is still that moment when you are awake inside that pod which is sealed shut.  I think I would go mental.

Only for a moment.

Could explain why they redesigned them later on down the line in Alien and Aliens. Psychological comfort.

I think Ridley actually refers to them as caskets in the audio commentary.

The muthur interactive called the Engineer Hypersleep chambers sarcophagus, which I think is cool. Links back to the Egyptian aesthetic in Dan O'Bannon's original concept with the Pyramid/Tomb.

Haven't seen anyone mention this before, the real Neomorph.
