Xenovember day 25! I figure yesterday's post was a solid lead in to another Predator illustration, and apparently it was Metroid day or something yesterday, so keen eyes will see what I've done with this. Box art for one of the Lost Tribe Predator toys.

Xenovember day 24! This was an illustration I did for NECA's "Defiance Xenomorph" based on the praetorian alien from the second issue of the comic.

Also one of those rare times I did the color work, too, using Dan's work in the comic books as a guide...

Xenovember day 21! Getting near the tail end, but this is the coloured (by @simongough2099.bsky.social ) version of one I posted earlier, in tribute to Mike Mignola's iconic Aliens vs Predator cover art from the orgiinal Dark Horse comics.

Bit late today, but feeling absolutely rat-shit and been sleeping most of the day.

Xenovember day 18! Queens are rad to draw. They don't make a tonne of sense to me, but they're rad, and still one of the best special effects put to screen.

Xenovember Day 16 (I think - I dunno, sleep and time have become an abstract concept to me now).

This was the second cover I did for @darkhorse.com's #Aliens : Resistance, once again with #color #art by Dan Jackson.

Just scraping in on this one as we hit the second week of Xenovember with day 14 . Again, an older but still one of my favourite #Alien pieces. This was done as a #cover for
@darkhorse.com
#Aliens : Resistence series.

Xenovember day 13! Today's a hectic one so I'm keeping it brief. Pretty sure I did this as a warm up leading into my time on Aliens: Defiance for Dark Horse...

Xenovember day 12! This was my take on what, up to that point, had been known as the praetorian #alien, done as a private commission. It would also be used by both NECA and Tindalos for both toys and video games, which were both wild to see!

Xenovember day 10! I always kinda felt like Aliens, for everyone’s pissing and moaning about Hicks and Newt taking dirt naps at the start of Alien 3, committed the bigger sin by reducing the alien to cannon fodder. That said, blowing up this one is was fun…

Xenovember day 9! This commission piece was done last year, depicting the original xeno floating in the void after the film, finished a month before Dane Hallett would tell me over lunch that this was exactly how Alien: Romulus would begin!

Xenovember day 8! I’d always wanted to do something along the lines of the classic Kelley Jones cover to Aliens: Hive #4, and the nature of the (unpublished) Colonial Marines comics was a perfect opportunity to try that. Colours by @simongough2099.bsky.social

Xenovember continues to roll out just like Lambert’s guts in this speculative take on her horrible demise from one of the original film’s most effective moments.

Xenovember Day 5! In honour of @dantrachtenberg.bsky.social's #Predator Badlands coming out, here's an #Alien vs Predator commission #illustration I did in homage to @mikemignola.bsky.social's #classic cover #art for @darkhorse.com series that started it all.

Xenovember day 4! This was my first Aliens cover, reuniting me with my Defiance Colorist, Dan Jackson. This one’s special for me because not only was it a return to Alien, but it would later be used as booth and lanyard #art at SDCC to represent the brand.

Day 3 of Xenovember marches on, as does my love for the #dog #alien from Alien 3. This #drawing was done as a warm up for the #illustration I posted a couple of days ago.

Knee deep in the last issue of Event Horizon, but it's #xenovember and I've got no shortage of Alien #art to tide things over until I can get back to that region of space, so here's the last commission I did. The dog alien from Alien 3...

Finally got this OC idea out of my system. 🙏 I've had the idea for a lava-themed Xenomorph in my head for months at this point, but didn't get around to drawing it until now.

[ #oc | #ocart | #art | #digitalart | #xenomorph | #alien ]
A digital sketch of an original character based on the Xenomorph from the Alien franchise. It is standing in a neutral pose at a 3/4 angle. The character's body is varying shades of black and dark grey, with orange glowing highlights on different sections of its body. The glowing areas have small bubbles in them resembling those seen in lava lamps. Additionally, its wrists have braces with broken chains dangling from them, and there are jagged spines across its back and tail.
