Thanks for share..  I have seen the Shuttle one before, very nice.  The Robots are interesting if not a bit Chappie but certainly if you are producing Security or Military Droids/Robots there is no need for them to look Human and as far as Anatomy the Human Structure is far from Perfect and so designing a Robot for Killing and having it have Human like Proportions does not mean its the best design to take.

Unless you wish to use Espionage/Spies and to infiltrate, and thus blend in with the Enemy.

BigDave - My pleasure. I've just found the Weyland Yutani image, I like it very much. 'Weyland Yutani's shuttle failed to escape from LV-426' is the original title of the picture.

Agreed with BigDave, the droids looks very Bloomkamp-esque. Not a bad thing, One thing Bloomkamp does supremely well is with his visual designs. Very gritty and brutally functional. I would still like to see what he could do with an Alien film.....just not that Alien 2.5 script lol

I think his ideas are not actually too original to be fair.....  but visually he has a good idea, so he is certainly someone you would want on board to give some ideas to how visually something could come across on screen, i would like his ideas pitched to someone who can add their own to them and come up with a Good Plot.

Then allow Blomkamp to have a great amount of input with Ridley Scott on how Visually to portray things on screen.

Edit:

I will add that this kind of role is something that can really make/break a movie.   If HR Giger was never considered as inspiration and also allowed to work on ALIEN it could have been a much more different movie,  if we then took away O'Bannon's ideas as far as the Life-Cycle then ALIEN would have not stood out from any other 70's/80's kind of Sci Fi/Horror Alien/Monster Flicks.

BigDave. Food for though....

O'Bannon's Starbeast design V Giger's Necrocom IV

O'Bannon's design (while not dissing on it) was an unremarkable B-grade creature feature.

The Necronom design is in a league of its own. Aggressive, terrifyingly grotesque and perverted. Strikingly fearsome.

There's a human (?) skeleton in the Necronom's tail (?) if I'm not mistaken:
