Here are some pics of a WIP Aliens diorama. This is using the Takeya Alien(s) against the VERY rare Jean Louis Crinon base. This is a massive piece, the base stands about 18" inches tall. We'll be adding and egg or two, more coloration in the base/Aliens, giving the headpieces a more transparent look, slime, etc., etc...but it's getting there. One of our favorite Alien projects to date...

Very very cool Diz. There is some awesome looking alien sculpts coming out. And the paint up on this is amazing.

Ditto on everything said so far! Is this a custom job for someone or will you be listing it?
I bought a painted resin Predator bust from Diz a few months ago on eBay and it blows away every Predator product released by Palisades. Very impressive work!

Thanks everyone for the great comments on this piece. As fellow artists know it's always great to get feedback from other creative people which is just as important as the feedback from fans, collectors because they're the tough ones to please. They'll let you know right away if something 'ain't right'! LOL!! But we're our own worst critics and that's what makes you 'grow' on each project, I think. Again, many thanks guys. Richard, this is a project that's not spoken for, just one we wanted to get to work on. We'd picked this up along with some other rare pieces recently. Not sure if we'll put it on Ebay or not...we see it arriving in pieces even though we consider ourselves great packers. We may end up just taking it to the SciFi expo in October or Wizard Texas in November. You can PM me or email me for more info. Everyone have a great one!

Someone got a nice, big piece for their collection. Those Takeya Aliens aren't small either.

Bullseye,
We'd love to have a website, believe me, but we stay so 'swamped' just through PR work at local shows, comic shops, repeat clients and word of mouth we'd never be able to update/maintain a website. Plus I do design work for Bloomingdales, Neimans, etc. as my main source of income. It's crazy being in creative businesses but it's rewarding as well.
