ALIEN COVENANT Design, Costumes and found objects

The one looks like a hardcover version of the traditional movie tie-in magazine; it has 96 pages.

The other seems to be the 'making of / art of' book; it has 192 pages.

Same publisher, so I'm betting they'll have overlapping contents.

But I have neither of them, so take my guesswork with a grain of salt.

I have the hardcover. It's a 'coffee table' type book with lots of concept art, anecdotes, quality paper etc.

 

[Mr Webber]

Going to get one right now.:thumbsup

Agreed. Superb book.

I tried something last night, and it worked. Up next is the circuit board pattern.

 

[TheMechanic]

Getting there. Thanks Banzai88!

Did you use Velcro on the patch or sew on to the hat?

 

[TheMechanic]

Sewed it on. Hopefully tomorrow I'll get that circuit board stencil and finish the hat.

Anyone got any info on this belt? I'm guessing it's Euro military surplus. Also check out the detailed 'Weyland-Yutani' label on the belt hanger thing. Pretty cool.

Could also be mountain climbing gear? Like those used in The Martian.

 

[TheMechanic]

I'll look at that next. I've been searching rigging harnesses, parachute buckles etc.

There's a variant patch on the 'Marine' Walter which seems to match the FR pin.

And if anyone is attempting this shirt, the FR pin looks about the right size [2" W], although it's just chrome and blue. The screen used looks like a white border and figures.

Billy Crudup 'Captain Oram' is wearing a vintage Swedish snow smock pullover.

And the gaiters are Swiss army surplus. I just picked up a pair here for less than $3.00-

Im in. Simple and nicely done.

 

[TheMechanic]

BAM! Done with this one.

 

[Banzai88]

Turned out nice! Cold enough to wear out though?

 

[TheMechanic]

Not really with summer barreling towards us but definitely this Halloween.

Oh, did you get the patches I sent?
