Dark Horse Announces Aliens: Defiance

[HuDaFuK]

Is that not just one of the alternate heads from the ACM

I dunno, thought it was the praetorian, i didnt play ACM much/.

[HuDaFuK]

I definitely think I've seen the design before the comic.

Maybe, I posted it over in the alien king thread thinking it was the praetorian from Defiance, oops.

Can't find the pic from the issue.

I'm pretty sure it's one of the Spitter heads from ACM (if not the default one).

My mistake, don't know my A:CM very well apparently. Now i need to actually find a pic of the alien in issue 2

[Corporal Hicks]

If I remember rightly it was an old warm up piece Tristan posted up.

Not to worry!

Only just noticed your new avatar, nice!

It's not from Defiance (I assume), but Tristan sure does draw a mean Newborn.

Tristan's artwork is pretty great, has he done any other comics work? The way he draws the Aliens reminds me a lot of Killian Plunkett's work on 'Aliens: Labyrinth'.

Nothing really worth reading. My all is going into Aliens. I wasn't given that luxury on other books. I used to write the TMNT, I wrote and drew some Ghostbusters, I worked on Silent Hill and Mad Max, now I'm here! Really want to do some Predator stuff, too.

Thanks for the Plunkett comparison, too. He's my favourite comics artist, so it comes full circle for me

You have -- the sketch posted is teh ACM version. I didn't like how over the top the body was, or the glowy green bits, or the "pincers" so I ditched them, made it more in line with something you'd see in the films (hopefully).

[Xenomrph]

I've got the Silent Hill Omnibus, would that have your stuff in it?

I'll let you know if you succeeded after I get a better look at it in future issues
