Nothing on his face.
Drake was immediately SCARRED and melted.

Quote from: Vermillion on Jun 22, 2015, 08:28:49 PMI think he caught a little backsplash from when it hit the armor. Either way it wasn't enough to explain that much scar tissue on the concept drawing.
"Get it off!! Get it off!!"
He is not burned at all on the face.

Quote from: HuDaFuK on Jun 22, 2015, 02:34:13 PMSee that's what I was thinking. It just wasn't very prominent until he got outside. And even then it just wasn't a very bad burn.Quote from: pred169 on Jun 22, 2015, 01:59:45 PMI mean in the original his ear is still intact and there's slight burning on forehead but more severe around the left eye orbit.
To be fair, in the original the burns magically don't appear until he gets outside the colony... His face is fine as long as he's in the lift.

Yeah I've seen the concept art. But like I said I've watched that movie probably a thousand times and I've looked at his face since the concept art came out. His face just wasn't that badly burned. So yeah the art would have to be off scale. I guess if they play the "I hope Noone paid that much attention to detail during that part" card it might work. And I realize it's just concept art so it very well could be that something else happened during the sulaco journey. Which is more what I'm hoping for myself. I've seen tons of burn victims throughout my career and that concept art looks more like the result of a flash burn...not acid.

I haven't subscribed to the podcast so I wouldn't know what was covered in it.

I haven't subscribed to the podcast so I wouldn't know what was covered in it. As far as the scarring yes it would cover the facial aging well but what are the chances that she would have a dream or hallucination that she and hicks are aged. Never met a woman who likes to think of herself aging let alone have a dream of it. Lol
Which either means she really is Ripley 8, the concept art is slightly off or something happened to the Sulaco's journey.QuoteAlso on that note his face was only minimally burned so the aging would be the only logical way to tie him in without makeup or cgi. I'm interested to see how they're going to bring it all together though. Can't wait to get more plot details and conceptual drawings.
Look at the Woodruff stuff:

That's a literal interpretation of the concept art. His age isn't going to be a problem if that's how it's going to look like.

Like we said in a podcast, a little while back, Hicks looks acid-scarred as f**k. They won't need any age-regression. He's meant to look worse for wear.
He's probably the real deal, but as I say, it could just as easily be a dream sequence or even a continuing hallucination because of the repeated psychological trauma Ripley has been enduring.
