The Prometheus' creatures' life cycle + creatures' drawings!

I am still trying to decide if that picture is something my 6 year old could do...or a masterpiece that should be framed. By the way, How does Ford die, and why do we not see her and the mecs body in the picture that is posted showing the SJ booting up the ship?

Awesome drawing. I think I understand the movie now. Which is ok by me, as I probably would not understand everything even after I saw it. I'm glad they have a link to the xenomorph, as that was important for me to be in the plot. Thank you for your artistic analysis of the film.

Thankfully you're not a good artist! Hahahaha XD (jk) This didn't ruin my perception of the creature but does give good insight! Looks like the mysterious "Alien Life Cycle" was not changed "too" much. I tried seeing if Fox had any unseen stills of the new creatures, but unfortunately they did not. Regardless I think we can expect some conept art to pop up some time after release which will shed some more light on this. Thanks for taking the time to draw this up and share! I will be sure to contribute this conversation a lot more tomorrow night! ; )

@ Blood - What do you mean by proto-alien... PM me as in depth a description as you can.

Ahahah I know! But to my defense, this was done on a tablet with little time. :P Spoilers ahead... Still, I don't understand what is the link between the alien statue in the ship and the final alien. They obviously knew that the goo could create a xenomorph, but I don't see why it takes so much steps to get there. It feels like its creation was an accident of Shaw sleeping with Holloway, but at the same time there's the statue/mural... And if this goo was used as a weapon on earth for example, everyone would have turned crazy, so no xeno. And it's also strange that the engineer crew was killed by things that came out of them. So maybe the creatures have not ONE lifecycle that can be described, but only adapt with the environment they are in and the creature they become in contact with. Hence engineers make appear xenos, if impregnated in the womb it creates something else. Then again, the crazy guys were just that, crazy, as if a parasite took control of their,brains without coming out of them.

Oh my Goooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaad........so happy I could cry! I was hoping we'd get a glimpse of some form of adult Proto Alien!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks Blood you've made my day!

haha nice post, Blood! Good thing to have people's curiosity fed and blow on the embers, while not actually revealing *that* much info about the plot that wasn't already around... only, one question, is it deliberate that you did not mention include the Space-Tapir? I think the guys here will be made when they see you kept his life-cycle to yourself!

The Perfect Organism as Ash described.

So, Blood, this Proto-Alien, shares the similar characteristics as Kane's in Alien, just not as defining? You can PM to keep this spoiler on the down low. Many Thanks!

Oh please ...please can someone repost those drawings!!....I can't see imageshack stuff...for some weird reason...(and many retries) I have never been able to register on that site! ...would be very much appreciated!

Third time I've tried to post a message, which is supposed to be a charm, here's hoping it werks. *crosses fingers* First off, thank you, and I love you. I want to have your proto-xenomorph babies. This is EXACTLY what I was expecting: a new monster in and of itself with the capability to hybridize in... various ways, and that xenomorphs are just the tip of the iceberg, and there's so many other things this black goo can make. Second, as to you being able to answer any questions... omg tell me everything about it <3. Seriously, I'm not going to see a monster movie because I'm interested in Ridley flunking history class. So... what does the final stage of the "liver-burster" (you know, cuddles) look like? Okay, it's tentacles, but what else? wikipedia says it looks like a squid. Is it like a mini-Cthulhu? A blob of tendrils (mini-Lloigor :P)? And what about the proto-guy? How is it different from from a human-spawned adult alien? Is it effectively the Jockey alien I've been waiting for since I saw Alien for the first time? Help a brother out, I'm officially psyched now. Edit: I don't know much about image hosting. I downloaded it, can you PM images?

Another version, again MAJOR SPOILERS, ALSO MAYBE SPOILERS ABOUT THE PLOT (if you think about it) [img]http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/4813/1338395171296.jpg[/img]

LOL Best spoilers ever. More, Blood, more!! :D

:D Wonderful! And your doodles are so freakin' cute. Am I to infer that the proto-alien doesn't have arms? Or was that a stylistic choice? :P That big blob in the middle is intriguing. Failure to properly capture it's form in the infallible medium of MS paint... so, it's just a shoggoth expy, isn't it? What's that green deal after the... oh, are those the sleep/pod/freeze/things? Whatever they're called?

The last Version confirms it.... these are masterpieces that you should frame and sell. I will start the bidding, 25$

$30, but C.O.D. only.

It's done on my ipad lol. The squid/bodyhugger is depicted a little shapeless, or that's what I saw. It's a huge pile of tentacles, small and big. The protoalien looks like a xeno, tail and all.

This is exactly what I wanted to see out of this film. It ties in to the original idea while keeping a completely unique system to itself. Thank you for posting this, I'm extra encouraged to see this movie now... or, more so than I already was. xD

You don't say? ...what's the "proto" part, then? :/

The green things are the ampules. From what I understood, I don't think there is much sense in trying to understand too much of the cycle of creatures. Maybe Scott thought about it all, maybe he didn't. The point is that this goo can change to many things, and there are some recursive elements and "body parts" that regularly appear : the acid blood, the mouth shape...
