I think the Aliens had feet they could grasp with, but, otherwise, love the way you drew it.

Yeah your probably right, saddly where I was at the time, I had like zero access to any Alien ref material and so most of it had to be completely pulled outta my @$$ :P

Probably for the best. Sort'a let you put your own spin on it, y'know? And I *do* like what you did with it. Besides, it's not as if they've ever looked the same from one movie to the next.

Now that is inspired! My hat's off to you m'friend.

Hahah, this reminds me of the 1990s when the Aliens basically fought every conceivable superhero in Marvel, DC, Dark Horse and Wildstorm universes.

I have loved ALIENS ssince day one and even this raises an eyebrow for me!

Anad no, human-type aliens never had grasping feet. Some other breeds did though...

Now, that you mention it, I don't remember ever seeing 'em with particularly flexible feet, but... If that's so, how did they run on walls and along ceilings, then?
Puzzling.

Their tail is quite long and flexible.
They have sucker pads (or whatever you want to call them) on their hands and feet. Combine that with the goo that's always slicking their body and they can get quite firmly attatched to a given surface.

They do? I don't remember reading about that... I can see how the goo might work, though. Especially if it were some kind of secreted polymer, like a hagfish uses for self-defense.

I've read all (or almost all) the publications on ALIENS that I can find. The Dark Horse novels are particularly informative.
Plus I studied the costumes and creature designs religiously. GOD BLESS H.R. GIGER!!!

Their goo, particularly royal jelly, is considered quite amazing or interesting stuff based on the books.
And I think your hagfish comparison is quite apropo, though I wonder if it's accurate...I'll have to think on that.

I've read a lot of the Dark Horse stuff, although not all of it. Most of what I know about Alien physiology is derived from the appendix at the back of the Colonial Marines Technical Manual.
I do remember the goo having some interesting pharmaceutical applications. ^^

See I'm not familiar with that, is that a book?
I said almost because i've apparently been out of the loop lately, 3 Dark Horse books were published recently that I knew NOTHING about and still need to read.

But I plan on writing an ALIENS novel myself one day.
The goo itself has no know medicinal value or effects of any kind (see ALIENS Alien Harvest) but once it's been processed and mixed with some chemicals it can produce halucinagenic and mind-altering effects in human users. Also known as "Xeno-zip".

Yeah, it's a book. Most of it is given over to discussing the equipment and tactics used by the USCM, but there's an appendix at the back that's a transcript of some Weyland-Yutani boffins discussing Alien physiology, although a lot of it is theoretical. For example, they forward the theory that the Aliens biology is based on fluro-carbons, making them both highly acidic and rather vulnerable to fire.

Couldn't they mix up a synthetic version of royal jelly using the regular goo and artificial hormones? And that stuff sort of had an unfortunate tendency to drive people uber-berserk, right?

Which is quite accurate.

Yeah, the synthetic stuff made soldiers go nuts like they were on Speed and PCP.

See, now I'm starting to wonder what'd pop out if Sonic got impregnated, given that Aliens apparently adopt the general physical characteristics of their host..

hehehehe, I'm thinking a bipedal version of the "Razorback"

Which if you don't know was one of the 3rd or 4rth ( i think) gen toy line

Alas, whilst I've read about that toy-line, it was never available over in the UK. : )

OH ok.
Yeah I have like half of them.
But actually there's not much point in speculating now that Dreamer has already shown us! XD

See, now I'm jealous.
And so he has. Thanks for pointing that out. ^^

Yup, cuz we all know who's gonna win >8D

hahahaha
you are really insane

hmm very very nice work :)

So if Sonic gets chestbursted, will the alien only have a mouth on the side of its face?

That's exactly what Alien would look like in Sonic!

WOW! That's awesome! X3
