I have always loved that Alien Pile statue. It's a shame I can't paint.

I like the head, even though it's not entirely accurate. But the hands are rather enormous. Very wide and I can't tell if it has 4 fingers or 6. Very cool regardless.

Never liked those wonky looking heads.

Probably my favorite take in the "not trying to be 100% faithful" series, Takayuki Takeya's sculpts. That extra long head is pretty bananas but I really like it

Some different colors for variety. Like the pose

The Alien Pile statue is possibly my favorite Alien image ever.  It perfectly personifies Giger's vision and seems to ooze naked evil.

They don't bother me much. I can dig the stylized versions - as long as they don't go too far left field.

They're way too far for mine.

But it´s Takeya, and since he is a living God, all is possible   ;)

Have the kit still in the box, and no idea when I have once time to get it done and on the shelf. Time, my only enemy  :P

I dig the aesthetic, and as Loc said it's takeya, but it still veers into territory of being so arty it loses menace.

Simon's UK covers do the same for me.

The Main Man: yay ridiculous

Aliems: boo ridiculous

I don't like the curvature of the frontal portion of the head.  With the dome on, there should be no "dip."

They look far too much like insects rather than Aliens to me for some reason when I look at that statue. Eh, I dunno...it's too arty.

Wow I really liked these. I like how they play with the bodily proportions. Would be ideal for an all CG Alien.
