Nice one for a non chap. Nice head and they way it's walking going to mess someone's day up.

That picture showcases many of the design choices that I hate. The pumpkinhead-ness of it, the fleshy & sinewy details, the tail fin, the hands, its such a watering down of giger's design. It's how the alien became a generic monster.

ADI has talked in interviews about how the fleshy look is a refinement of Gigers creature when it really just strips away all the biomechanical aspects. Now it's just pumpkin head with an elongated head and no eyes.

I don't usually post Alien pictures since I'm not that big of a fan,but I've read some comics and so far I really enjoy it

I like this cover a lot:

Pretty sweet pics, love the alien 3 design as well. Its the only ADI alien design that I like though.

Well it was the last alien design that Giger worked on, right? ;)

100% mate. I absolutely hate the design. I concede the mould cast for from Resurrection was reused in the AvPs for budgetary reasons, but the Alien Resurrection design is woeful. I understand it's an Alien design that's mutated through the cloning process, but it just looks like shit. You can try to justify it from a creative standpoint, but it just looks rubbish.

Not bad, but I think locusta's version is more faithful to ADI's design.

Indeed, mostly in the head. Nice textures and posing though.
