I think the designs from the first 3 films are all really good.
I actually like the Dog Alien a little more because it somehow has a really nasty character (not that the others are any friendlier) and that's anchored in the design of the face. So it looks like it's having a shitty day and wants to take out its anger on everything and everyone it meets.
it is very elegant and supple.
In the context of the previous films, I thought it was a cool idea to have it come from an animal this time.
Regardless of the story or look of the film:
With AR they went a little too far away with the Xenos and they should have used the Warrior or Big Chap designs again. Cloning or not, they are more reminiscent of dinosaurs and had almost no biomechanical elements left.
In general, I like it when the aliens have very thin limbs and this gives them a very elegant look.
Like the ones in Labyrinth. That was pretty cool.
I hate it when the xenos look too muscular or massive.
So if it were up to me there would be these three variants:
Big Chap, Warrior when they come from human hosts.
Runners from A3 if they come from animals.
And here with slight physical differences depending on the animal.
But they would all be elegant. So an alien made from a rhinoceros would still not be beefy or massive.
I also think these crushers in the games are stupid.
it looks like a bull gone wild.
I don't want something like that.
