Sorry for cloging the thread guys i just thought these pics were amusing and wanted to share if you were not aware.

Those are awesome alteredstate! Oh and for anyone who hasn't seen "30 Second Bunnies version of Alien"... http://bcove.me/es6ixkrz

baby scarred for life..............shame. - Image..........priceless do weyland do cilit bang? - for tough stains.. they must do health cover for xeno encounters loving that bike!!

"Creatures".. I like that word.. He has some good stuff. So I wonder how many "creatures" there will be? :-)

difficult one this, Alien & Geiger go hand in hand; i'm a bit nervous seeing anything other than geiger. "geiger-esque" became part of the english language in sci-fi/art/gaming circles :) I don't think the images from "carlos huante" are as distinctive,unique as geigers' defining work - however thats' no comment on "carlos's" proficiency as an artist; it could be that we're just so used to seeing this sort of thing in photoshop in the internet age that we become a bit blaze to it. It might be that the rapport between carlos & riddley is what is more important this time round, perhaps ridley just feels confident he can get Carlos to visualize & iterate his ideas.. Wheras with Alien, you can see the direct translation of Geigers distinctive, defined style into the striking imagery in the film, you could almost say alien was a vehicle for geigers' art.

Giger may not be fully involved in PROMETHEUS but you can expect some of the old Giger design DNA in the new movie. I can guarantee you that. Giger as distilled through the eyes of this young guy Carlos. Will be interesting! The top image looks to be coming from the movie SILENT HILL.

double

i like it looks cool i'm still holding out for the single project Giger has reported to have worked on in prometheus . Between him Giger and neville page we should see something breathtaking Fingers crossed.

I like his work. Giger will likely always be my favorite artist (next to Dali and da Vinci). While his worked helped to define ALIEN and I hope he is heavily involved in Prometheus, I have no problem having another artist(s) involved. I believe Giger's work has inspired many contemporary artists (especially those involved in movie concept design). Many of these young artists definitely deserve the same chance Giger once had (even if its with an ALIEN prequel).

@ateredsate Honestly, sometimes I wonder if the only thing Giger may have been involved with is the design of the head statue seen int he movie poster. It has minimalistic giger-esque lines/tubes. However, I truely hope he did more. (I also think the Giger-esque caverns we've seen in pictures were probably designed by other artists working off Giger's original designs for ALIEN.)

i thought that but ridley said hes keeping it under wraps so heres hopeing

The first image looks like a failed cloning of Ripley in Alien Resurrection.

i wasn't overly impressed with that aspect in resurrection i feel it could of been handled better should of employed rob bottin for that .

Sorry to go off point a bit but i just watched real steel anyone else think that film is just rocky 4 with robots lol ?

@engr101 right, ok, so carlos being younger may simply be able to work longer & harder on these designs getting through more iteration, I know iteration and refinement is tremendously important to creative projects aswell as original vision. It could indeed be a safe choice. I'll stop panicking :)

same as neville page in his radio interview he said ive designed a lot and was working furiously to please Ridley but what designs they used i'm unable to say?

@Theusprom Actually I'm not surprised he doesn't know what they ended up using. I've never worked in the film industry but I do work in the toy industry. Many times concept artists are contracted/commissioned to turn in designs for a specific element/character. Once the design is complete and submitted, the artist may never here back from the design studio. His/Her work may or may not be used. Just depends on the situation. Giger had a very different role during ALIEN. He was basically Art Director for the Alien designs. He wasn't just a hired concept artist. He had influential input in the look of the creature and its environment and how everything was built sculpted within the space used as the set for the film. Edit: Thats why Giger won the Oscar for the film's design. That award usually goes to the film's art/concept director. Not the concept artist who did a few sketches.

I can't find Carlos Huante listed in the production crew at IMDB's entry for [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1446714/fullcredits#cast]Prometheus[/url]. Did IMDB miss his credit as a creature designer somehow? Carlos' work looks excellent. Ridley did good by hiring him.

Carlos Huante's work mostly tends towards the biological (usually deformed in some way), although he can do mechanical, but from what I've seen on his website he doesn't really do biomechanical that much (I think I only saw one)? Should we be worried?

@ Snorkelbottom Nah, I don't think so. Based on the work in his gallery I'm sure he can pull off Bio-mechanical if asked to.

i saw his work a while back, someone posted a link to his webpage although his work IS solid, it's something i've already seen before, unlike Giger, who's work was just all too unique, and iconic for it's time still, i will keep an open mind, that Ridley and the team of art directors Scott has chosen will bring out the very best in Carlo's work. so i am confident that overall, the end result will keep well within the ALIEN look and vibe

that first pic does look like a failed ripley clone, and the seccond one with the freakin face on his arm and the heads in the green dome things, just freaks me out!

draekus, Ridley confirmed in the Filmophobia article that Giger did two large murals for 'Prometheus'

Looking through his gallery [url=http://www.carloshuanteart.com/gallery.html]here[/url], it looks like he's done some of the art for Van Helsing and the Eragon movie. On the one hand, I don't really like that because we don't want anything that tame in this movie. But on the other hand, it definitely looks like his imagination is capable of really running wild, especially in the mutated creature department. If he was allowed (or encouraged) to do that for this film then we could get some very interesting results.

if it was strictly a 15 then i would be satisfied with that I figure i will enjoy it anyway but i really was hoping for an r /18. Although 2001 was u and was adult themed but this alien universe has all the ingredients for a dark hard 18 .

i hope a new trailer is released sooner rather than later, i was apprehensive about seeing fresh images in a new trailer, but my need to see fresh scenes has over taken my need to not see them or be spoiled hopefully, there will be a new trailer in Feb, my guess is, that if ANY will air, it would air during the Academy Awards telecast in late February not a certainty, just a hunch

God I hope I don 't have to pay for PM just to see a new trailer.
