Quote from: The Eighth Passenger on Sep 05, 2016, 03:54:40 PMIs this picture conclusive proof that Alienkamp is finally happening Corporal?

Quote from: Bad Replicant on Sep 12, 2016, 08:33:04 AMAh yeah, forgot it came from Blomkamp's art. Guess there's plenty of time to tinker with it now! :B
QuoteOne of my favorite images from the Special Edition, and one of my favorite from the series.
Quote from: FiorinaFury161 on Sep 12, 2016, 10:03:03 AMI heard that the structures got torn down? I hope not, I also would like to visit there one day.
Quote from: Corporal Hicks on Sep 12, 2016, 10:15:20 AMThey made at least one, I think, for the scenes with Clemens walking. Pretty sure I've seen some bts shots of them.

Pretty sure I've seen some bts shots of them. They made three, one full scale and two at progressively smaller scales for forced perspective, but they looked a little different to the ones in that wide beach shot. As you say, probably a matte, but it's a bloody brilliant one.
QuoteIn a nod to other cinematic landscapes, matte painter Paul Lasaine added to his painting of the Fiorina refineries [image at the top of the page] distant towers styled after the stacks from Blade Runner's famous 'Los Angeles 2019' opening shot – details which you're unlikely to have a chance of spotting in Alien 3 due to the overlapping effects and the diminutiveness of the painted towers. Allegedly, the Tyrell Pyramid structure is also in there, somewhere. An obvious similarity with another cinematic alien world is Fury's twin suns – perhaps a tip of the hat to Star Wars' Tattooine sunset. The shores of Fiorina were filmed on the dreary Blast Beach at Seaham and at Blyth Power Station – perfect for the planet's monochromatic landscape, and was apparently shot by Jordan Cronenwerth [Blade Runner again] before he left the production."It was a terrific looking spot. There had been a colliery nearby and they had dropped all their slag onto the beach. So the sand was black and the water had a real brackish look to it."~ Rich Fitcher, Boss Effects Co-Supervisor.https://alienseries.wordpress.com/2012/10/19/fury/
