Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Phew, that's a big project to take on. To get it looking anything like screen accurate you'd need to resculpt the upper mouth, the rear of the lower jaw, resite the lower jaw tube, sculpt all the detail beneath the dome, even up the eye sockets and lower the whole front profile by about a quarter of its height. And that's just for starters. With that much work you have to ask why the owner didn't just go for a pro scratchbuild.

That could be an expensive oops.
I look forward to seeing the finished pics.
Best of luck.

This is a well executed impressive undertaking. The finished product is far more reminiscent of the Xenomorph's menacing screen appearance.

Could be tempted to send him the head of mine but will wait and see how his first one turns out!

doesn't look like it would take much to get it there. it's way better than a scratchbuild in that the body is molded from the original giger sculpt.
