Last post by Acid_Reign161 - Today at 09:57:17 AMQuote from: Mike's Monsters on Today at 09:28:46 AMAre you referring to just past that frontal lobe leading toward the rest of the dome? There are a little bit of ridges there too but they don't go all the way back down to the end of the dome. The ridges aren't nearly as prominent as we'd see on the ALIENS warrior design. Just slight little bumps/ridges around the point where the frontal lobe connects to the rest of the dome. Not sure if that answered the question right.
Ridges might not be the right term. They're almost like ripples in water.
Thanks for all the intel Mike! 😃
It was the colour difference circled here that I was curious about;
I wondered if i were seeing the Romulus equivalent of this;
Sort of colour/markings visible through a translucent shell :-)

Yeah, but you have the beefy knowledge to balance that out!
Quote from: Neila on Today at 09:19:51 AMI would also be interested to know whether Ridley Scott, if he had been allowed to continue, would also have ignored the sequels, i.e. the Alien Queen etc.?
Does anyone here know more?
In Alien Covenant, the eggs were created through David's experiments. However, this would not necessarily lead to the annulment of a queen in the later films, as this species could certainly evolve.
The studio might also possibly require appropriate continuity.
Not sure if he would have ignored them. But the ultimate goal was to get it to line right up with the beginning of ALIEN. How successful that would have been is still unknown. But I can see it getting messier if they'd tried to do that.

I did a messy sketch of the side view too, notice the point on the top of the frontal lobe?

What I don't think I've seen people notice is the ridges up there too. Here they are circled:

Ok, so I wasn't *completely* 'out there' with my first sketch, but I got the back wrong. 😂 Just curious Mike, am I also seeing markings on the top mid section, just behind where you circled the ridges? (As that it what prompted my suggestion of the Kenner Big Chap style exposed head on my first sketch. The sort of yellowey/creamy/grey coloured markings.. Are they visible?
PS; (going by your second side-view illustration, I am *loving* this xeno design!!) 😃

Last post by Mike’s Monsters - Today at 09:15:56 AMThat was more for illustrative purposes to show the lines. You don't see a separation in the film.
