An Alien Xenomorph concept bust inspired by the late H.R. Giger's original star beast was spotted on Instagram today. The bust gives the Xenomorph a refined look, more grotesque and more closely related to that of the Cameron Alien Warriors from 1986's ALIENS movie, minus the protective dome cranium the Alien is well known for. A bold new design choice, but one that works.
The following images were uploaded by Instagram user dbogdanyi. Unfortunately an original source has yet to be tracked down, but once we locate them we'll update this piece. In the meantime, check it out:
I'm not opposed to this concept in all honesty. The Alien design has been refined time and time again, but has rarely changed that dramatically. I think this would make for a great mutated version of the Xenomorph, perhaps for Alien 5 if it ever gets made or a sequel to Alien: Covenant. But what do you think?
