Description

This is but a preview of things to come! I'm so satisfied by the way the colouring is going that I decided to post a little picture of the head. Did you know that the Alien Giger designed originally had eyes? And that it's got a clear dome with a skull underneath it? You can hardly see it in the film though. They removed the dome in Aliens to make it even more frigthening - alas, the birth of the Warrior Alien. Looks closely and you'll see the skull in my version!

There is also another reason: I need critique is you can spare me any. On what I need it on I don't know - or perhaps the shine and the drool? If you've got any good ideas let me know! If not, I'll just keep on with what I'm doing.

Ah! I've used two gradient layers on this on to achieve a slightly spookier shading. If anybody's got any good suggestions on "How to Avoid Gradient Layers" I would appreciate them alot!

...and thats it. repeate...

lol! Thank you very much! It's been years since I worked on this one though. But should I ever make a new one, your idea of the scar HAS to be implemented! Very good idea!

I've been drawing them for years and you can see the lineart here . For the colouring I'm using Photoshop Elements 2. I'm glad you like it!

I've got the book regarding the alien film with early art in it. It has a landscape filled with penises! lol!

Oh My God, i love the Xenomorphs, is it meant to be the runner from Alien3?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

MisterIngo In reply to Femme-Jonesy-Spider [2006-02-12 00:36:56 +0000 UTC]

Actually it's a slight hybrid of the one in Alien and the warriors in Aliens. I've used the body composition of the warriors (the lineart should show you that... )and the head of the one from Alien... The one in Alien3 isn't that different, but it has more lips and it's a little bit more rounded on the head...

Femme-Jonesy-Spider In reply to MisterIngo [2006-02-12 00:56:01 +0000 UTC]

oh yeah, it's colour is that from Alien3 though...
the drawl on yours looks a little off though, but i don't have a comment on how to improve it though sorry...

MisterIngo In reply to Femme-Jonesy-Spider [2006-02-12 02:20:24 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I messed up the colours a little bit... I hope you don't mind... As for the drool I'm still not too sure as to how I'm going to draw it... Hm...

Femme-Jonesy-Spider In reply to MisterIngo [2006-02-12 17:08:35 +0000 UTC]

no the colouring is great even though you messed it up, it actually looks like one of the Runners (Alien3) and it's the right colour.

As for the drawl i'd look at a thick liquid and water since that's what the drawl's like

Keep up the Alien pictures, i love them D

I vote make the shine in the drool a bit brighter. the image of the skull is just sickeningly sweet, so you gotta keep that. there's really nothing more i can critique. this is beautiful all round!

you just never quit those things, do you! one of the first things I actually saw you draw, these things! and that must've been what, four years ago?
anyhoo, you keep improving, my friend I think I would've lightened the whole thing somewhat, ease up the details... how's the background gonna look?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

MisterIngo In reply to Admytica [2005-08-15 12:39:40 +0000 UTC]

You know this one actually has gotten me more hooked on the than before!! I'm very happy with the colouring for a change - it looks nice. It's weird, I know, but I can't help staring at it. It's like I'm looking at someone else's art - I feel like a different person when creating art contra viewing my own!

The one I'm actually colouring (this is only a detail of the sketch of the other alien ) is lighter than this one and the green shine is only made for this one too. For the background I'm thinking some Giger inspired landscape or an alien egg!
