Hey does anybody know where I can see some original concept art from the alien, aliens or any other Sigourney Weaver starring alien film? Online that is. I tried searchin' but I get only crap on the search-engines (like that's news...)

I watched Aliens yesterday for like the fifth time and it still blows my mind! And is it true that Chris Cunningham (the guy who did the Aphex Twin videos and stuff) designed the Aliens in Alien: Resurrection? I know HR Giger did the original alien, but what about the other movies?

They have some concept art on the DVD's. I think Ridley Scott's storyboard drawings are on them.

You can also check out Sylvain Despretz site: Nuclear Burn (http://www.nuclearburn.com/)

He did the storyboards and some concept art for Alien: Resurrection.

DVD, schmeeveedee! ;)

So like, I have to order some DVD to get a look at the sketches? Probably. They have that stuff copyrighted and locked up good it seems.

Thanks for that link, although the site has tiny, tiny pics...

That's some bad-ass spaceship Despretz drew. I do remember it from the movie. The guns too, and the wheelchair.

I'd still like some bigger pics, especially from Aliens, since that one had some cool vehicles (dropship, APC and that forklift-walker thingamajigger). The queen looks especially cool in that one too, better than in Resurrection, I think.

Thanks again negativespace

They're not that tiny. You have to click on the pic to bring up a larger image.
