Hope u like it.
I'm pretty good at drawing their heads it seems but most of it looks like a 3rd graders drawing.
I’m so excited for this new campaign. I love what Gaska has done for the alien franchise and this story seems just amazing. Similar to how the last campaign destroyer of worlds used the hybrid from William gibson’s alien 3 screenplay as a threat in the form of the “body burster”. it looks like Eric Red’s concept of a living xeno space station is going to be brought to fruition in this story. And In addition to that we will guaranteed be getting some background on the Deacon, I mean one of the promo images has a cat caring a dead trilobite newborn. It also seems like they are keep with the theme of having a unique retelling of the original 3 films. With this one being about a group of prisoners. Also the concept of a living space station may come around and connect to how the deacon became a living mountain. Whatever happens this looks amazing
I've managed to compile a theory of how Katherine Daniels from alien covenant could be Ellen Ripley's mother.
Ellen Ripley was born in 2092 making her 12 during alien covenant in 2104
Daniels might have been born in either 2066 or 2067 making her in her mid 20s when Ripley was born. its also possible that if Daniels is Ripley's mother she might have given her up for adoption because of her mission on the covenant, which could be why Ellen Ripley's last name is Ripley and not Daniels.
Daniels would be in her 30s by the time of alien covenant so the theory makes a lot of sense when you think about it.
(also I know people might hate this theory at first but this is how I conceive the connection Daniels has with Ripley. let me know what you think in the comments below).
How can The Predator (2018) be canon if Blade Runner takes place in 2019? This seems like a huge oversight to me and I fear the new Alien series will continue this error. Does this mean the Blade Runner connection established in the original Blade Runner and Alien films, along with the background Engineer Replicant in 2049, be retconned quietly, or are there ways around this?
Anyone want to see a crossover with Alien and Species? I think it would be pretty interesting. The Facehugger could even impregnate the Species in it for a Species-Xenomorph hybrid that has the same regenerative ability and is even more deadly. It can be kind of like Alien vs. Predator: Requiem (only good). The Species lore can even tie into the Alien/Prometheus lore, like the alien DNA that was obtained to create Sil came from the Engineers. They could even have a battle between the Species and the Species-Xenomorph hybrid. Does this sound interesting to anyone?

In Alien isolation toward the end of game in mission 17 you have to get a key card from a locker and the code is 1984. Now I have been trying to think of what this could be referencing and I’m almost ninety percent sure it is a reference to the first Alien game made for the Commodore 64 which was released in 1984! Coincidence maybe but, I needed to share my theory with someone.

To crowdfund or not to crowdfund?
There's a screenplay and 3D mood board presentation of a movie called LIFE FORM.
It was written because many Alien I fans miss the claustrophobic feel of the bizarre alien world O'Bannon, Sushet, Giger and Scot created.
Especially the element of suspense many felt was missing in the sequels 3 and 4, along with Prometheus and Alien: Covenant.
Here's the short mood board trailer of LIFE FORM: https://youtu.be/xD27TB9639E
LIFE FORM, although not directly related, does hint to new explanations regarding the ALIEN world we were introduced to in 1979, and since has captured the imagination of millions.
Those who were never quite satisfied with Ridley Scot's focus on artificial intelligence now can be given this unsettling unknown, ALIEN feel; the bizarre world which is needed to create the claustrophobic horror we loved so much, but never have experienced since.
The conundrum: pitching LIFE FORM to today's film companies (which has been done) means ending up losing the story line.
Either we do that or we crowdfund it and keep the movie intact.
LIFE FORM is a way around the ALIEN execs and copyright. To give you an idea of the story, here's the full presentation of the movie's project:
The movie will have no Xenomorph and unfortunately no Sigourney Weaver but neither will it feature a robot playing the flute for half an hour and more of those scenes. This is the closest thing to Alien I, with the biggest Alien I fan directing it.
LIFE FORM needs the Alien audience; being aware that it's out there, ready to be made. This means having this thing all over the fan boards.
To keep you up to date with LIFE FORM and gather people not minding a movie which gives us what Alien I gave us:

I accidentally watched Alien when I was six and vividly remember that in the scene when they kill Ash, there is a clip of his white noodle innards flying through the air. I just rewatched it 25 years later and there is no clip that matches my memory. Was this a clip that has since been cut or was it my imagination?
