The Aliens in Ridley Scott's Alien: Covenant went through a number of designs, alterations and redesigns before resulting in the monsters we saw on screen this past summer. Below are two official early concepts of the film's Neomorph, by concept artist Colin Shulver. These concepts were uploaded less than a day ago and provide a more "Xenomorph-like" appearance to the spore-born parasite:

How do you think they compare to what the Neomorph eventually became? Let us know in the comments!

WOW! Like those much more than the one they chose. Keep these for Covenant 2....hopefully.

Yes, these look awesome, but I think it's OK that they used the versions appearing in the Covenant. Probably they wanted to show/stress the difference.

I liked the Neomporphs we saw a whole lot! These concepts are a little too close to the Protomorph for my liking, but still cool! If they went with this or something really similar, the difference wuold have been hard to tell for people not full invested in the movie or lost in the action.

I hated the protomorphs we saw in the film. Aside from the piss poor cgi, they just seemed to lack any imagination.
