The Xenomorph is, without question, one of the most horrifically cool looking creatures to ever be created. H. R. Giger (1940-2014) is one of the few artists I consider a strong influence on my own work. While I will never come close to what he was able to accomplish (nor would I ever dare try), I look upon his masterpieces and let that fuel my own imagination.
I could go on and on about the movies, their impact and influence on my style, yadda yadda yadda, God knows it’s been said countless times by millions. When it came time to decide on the color scheme (after the Hell I went through just coming theoretically close to the Xenomorph’s design) I at first started with the Earthier tones from Alien³, but quickly course-corrected towards a more Giger-esque black & white.
