Concept art alway's lets your brain run wild with imagination more so than the final product.
Some great stuff here.
That Jockey in the chair looks like bad fan-art.

Man that jockey looks so much better than what we got.

If there was one thing I really loved about the movie it was the jockey (engineers).

While I think the art is actually good, I agree that he looks meh compared to the final version we got in the film

I think a lot of the giger inspired stuff concept art is bad fan art actually.
Especially the Steve Messing stuff...
That cgi Engineer by Neville page is ugly.
cgi renders works great for vehicules but i still prefer 2D artwork for concept art.

My thoughts exactly. It looks far better than the Jockey design in the film.
How come concept art always looks better than the movie?

Because it's cheap to accomplish and requires just one guy who knows what he's doing as opposed to a whole team of people who may or may not know what they are doing attempting to work together under a crushing time limit.
is that Noomi?? :D
those bulky suits would have helped so much to build a sense of hostility about the alien environment...
i didn't felt that planet to be actually extraterrestrial after the storm. it was a meh setting.

I agree 200% too. Since Alien and Giger's Biomechanics works were not meant to be part of this plan. :'(

Fixed: Because
it's cheap to accomplish
and requires
just one guy who knows what he's doing as opposed to a whole team of people who may or may not know what they are doing attempting to
work together make money under a crushing time limit.
I love these concept art threads..... I feel like back in 1980, as the first magazine's came out and showing more and more pictures from Alien and Giger's art.... excellent..
The illustration of the Engineer with its bio-mechanoid skin is fantastic. The movie doesn't show enough of the detailing of the merging of the biological and the mechanical . I always thought it is suit
This is a brilliantly designed film. Just not a particularly well written one.
I wonder if Engineer's suit is actually some biomechanical enhancement, so the Engineer can adjust his proportions as he needs.. Thus solving the 79' and 12' Jockey difference :)
If u notice in the film, when hes in the cryopod, the tubes are connected to the suit all over, so there definitely more than meets the eye with that suit.
It's not a suit, it's his body

I like that their pressure suits (to help them endure a 2000 year hibernation) are woven/grafted/implanted/grown right into their own bodies. This Giger concept has been around before he ever touched Alien. Makes me wonder how he was compensated this time around.

No. Its definitely a suit.
Yes it a suit that fusion with him.
Biomechanical suit.
A living suit.
I like the anti-theft device of the ship, a flute.*

In brief (and I think this deserves it's own thread) the musical instruments of Prometheus are quite on purpose. The Engineers flute activating the ship and Janek's accordion are parallels to be sure. (Not to mention his selection of "O Come, All Ye Faithful." Which ties into the film quite nicely.
Greek Gods Apollo, and Dionysus, are associated with music and of course
ORPHEUS, whose music had the ability to cause inanimate objects to move and influence the forces of Hades.
Didn't pick up on a connection between the flute and the accordion, but that would be very interesting to hear elaborated on a bit more. I will say, however, that I really liked the use of the flute. Thought it was really cool, and my appreciation of it will likely only go up once I learn a bit of the symbolism (I'll admit that I'm a bit fuzzy on many aspects of Greek mythology).

definitely a WTF moment for me as well when I first saw it! I was thinking is this some Willy Wonka magic or what?
It would have even been a funnier moment had the Engineer been the flute toting dork in place of David!
