Someone should convert the images into an animated gif.

Suitably scary.

Two minutes with M$ Paint and free online gif-a-fier. Just think if some real software, say, with ability to fade, in the hands of real talent...  lol

Are there going to be re-casts of these sculpts? I'd be seriously interested.  8)

Rykar Jove the original sculptor decided to re-work some of these

Here is a reminder of the original metal casts

(https://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/41/13663-161019230526-41442926.jpeg)


First he looked at the Facehugger leaping out of the egg metal casts and decided the legs and tail needed thickening a touch

He then re-worked another Facehugger separating the tail from the egg and resculpting the tail in a different pose

A third Facehugger was detached from its egg and re-worked as a stand alone Facehugger this time with the proboscis withdrawn

Finally he sculpted a 4th Facehugger crawling down one of the eggs

Not for sale yet

The original metal castings sold out awhile ago

The revised sculpts will go to a caster sometime in the near future but only to be cast in RESIN as the original metal castings were a little problematic with the legs
