Rendered in photoshop, the predalien from the comic books and the last AVP film. The movie took a real beating by the critics, I personally enjoyed this film and its new creature.

This one was time consuming, most difficulty I had was with the caster canon, ”amount of detail in that little Gizmo!” Used 2d beveling and texture for the dreadlocks, I really enjoyed working on the metallic surface of the Armour plating, cg textures were a big help in that area.

Referenced a recent photo for the base and went back to the original for inspiration, in particular the tubing snaking along the dome and shoulder. The skull I imported from cg textures, I only recently became aware of the internal workings of the dome and thought revealing the skull would give the creature more of a Gothic feel.
