Oh my Gawd, that was 14 years ago...
This was my very first alien creature Giger's style ( http://www.furaffinity.net/view/534925/ is one of the few others I did after), at a time when, of course, Alien IV the movie wasn't even a rumor... There has been an alien queen in Aliens, why not an alien king I thought ?
Pic not cleaned to preserve all the details and nuances. I am still very proud of this one, and probably will be till death, it clearly shows how much I have been able to master a simple black ball point pen at the age of 21...

Very nice. You even have a Giger-esque hint of alien schlong. I know this was done before Eva, but the face is eerily similar to the flying Angels.
In canon, there would never be a xenomorph king for the queen - at least, not one that looks like this. As a species, they didn't have males, unless you count the face-huggers. Imagine getting a faceful of alien wing-wong (as VG Cats so aptly put it) from the face-hugger counterpart to the Alien queen. It'd probably be overpowered enough to worm its way all the way through and lay eggs in the guy behind you.

*puts on Xenomorph nerd hat*
If you read the novels, there's mention of 'kings', or breeding males. They generally reporduce asexually, but sometimes they produce males to mix up the gene pool. (according to the books) The queen gathers them all in her chamber, where they fight eachother to the death. She then takes the survivor and procedes to beat the ever-loving shit out of him, throwing him against walls and ripping off limbs. If he makes it out alive, she 'lets' him mate, then she like eats his face or something....
No pictures though :P *awaits Alien mating pop-up Golden Book*

Wonderful, marvelous piece and something I'd wondered about in the movies' :>
Figured they'd always just eaten the possible 'king' right after a single necessary mating, but that'd make the Aliens a very -very- wasteful species (after blowing a whole body on an egglaying device).
*anyways* Love his lines, and your penwork's incredible :> Like to see a modernized version of him :>

YESSS !!! And blood too, that is a FANTASTIC idea... What an incredible self-defense system, don't you think ? We already got acids in our stomachs, why not as blood ? Some of our creatures do got violent poisons in their blood, or can throw very aggressive acids, so it's not an idea that crazy after all...

That was the actual action figure version released back in the 80's.

You see them for only a short minute, when Ripley threaten the Alien queen to destroy the eggs. They are the aliens who are on the sides and who pulls back at this time.
On others notes, the books shows aliens workers, who are much less ferocious and dangerous aliens, who have for job only to care for the eggs and feeding, they appears only when the colony is quite big.
Or the aquatics aliens, talented swimmers you see them for a minute, in alien 4. Some books had the Alien Rhino, with a really big head with a big shell. Last and most dangerous alien ever reported was the Predalien...

A la limite, le corrrecteur blanc (pour ne pas citer de marque) permet de rattraper, mais ça laisse quand même des marques : le trait est visiblement différent dessus - ça se voit encore plus au scan -, les surfaces ne sont pas bien planes et accrochent le stylo ou empêchent au contraire l'encre de se déposer à certains endroits, et elles se salissent vite... J'ai été étonné de constater qu'aucun de ces deux dessins ne porte de telles marques. Il faut dire que pour éviter que le stylo bave, ce qui est inévitable avec les pointes bille, j'ai pris l'habitude d'essuyer le bout quasiment avant chaque trait. J'ai dû perdre autant d'encre en "bavures" que sur le dessin même...
Jamais sur ce genre de dessin : sa réalisation peut en effet s'étaler sur plusieurs semaines ! d'ailleurs, mon autre alien, celui dont j'ai mis le lien dans mon commentaire, a nécessité... quatre ans (il faut dire qu'il est tombé en plein dans ma seule période de déprime critique), et n'est même pas encore terminé (et ne le sera jamais) !!!
Magnifique réalisation...
Un peu dommage de constater que tu n'aies pas conservé cette manière de travailler le trait... Ne fut-ce que pour tes monstres !
Tiens, je me rappelle que - vers la même époque - j'avais réalisé une "Alienenette" en couleurs, dans un style mi-réaliste mi-humoristique !
Dommage que ce soit sur un A3... C'est un peu dur à scanner !

Merci !! ^^
Alors, pour le trait, deux choses : pour mes dessins vraiment chiadés (que j'expose rarement ici car hors sujet), je l'ai toujours, ce trait ! Et puis, comme je l'ai mis en commentaire, tu dois sentir une différence dans ces dessins car je ne les ai pas retravaillés après scan, du coup la feuille est crade, mais tous les détails sont conservés, toutes les nuances également (pas de saturation).
Pour ton dessin A3, j'aimerais beaucoup le voir... Tu sais, j'ai déjà scanné des A2 en quatre fois, ça marche après un petit coup de Photoshop et un peu de patience... ;)

Bah... Je préfère cette version non re-travaillée. Ça me parait plus « authentique » ! :)
Quant à mon alienenette... Heu... Ouais, je tenterai l'expérience un jour !
C'est un dessin qui a plus de 15 ans, maintenant, mais je trouve qu'il a toujours beaucoup de gueule ! ;)

... Raison de plus pour que j'insiste sur le sujet : si toi-même tu l'apprécies toujours malgré son âge, je suis certain de l'aimer !! :D Et beaucoup de monde sur FA également si tu veux bien l'y poster, je suis assez étonné malgré tout du nombre de comments et de favs dans le temps de ces deux dessins pourtant non érotiques (enfin, en théorie XD )...
Heh heh, super thanks !! ^^ Indeed, I've done with a friend a portfolio many years ago, and this one was part of it !
How old am I ? You know that's not a question to ask a boy ?! Errr... that's for a girl, sorry ^^'' Well, don't freak, but in just a month and a half, I'll be 35 already... though I never really went over 20 in my mind XD
Getting paid ? Not at all !! That's only for pleasure that I draw, I just COULDN'T do such things if it was for a job !!!!!!
