[Nacho]

NICE!!!!!

 

[PredatorFreak13]

Very cool!

 

[Awesome]

Those things are damn freaky.

 

[Rotfish]

Coolness. Are you planning on filling the tube with water or something?

 

[tnaig001]

i'm afraid to ask how much it costs

i'm afraid to ask how much it costs

a pretty penny thats for sure.

I've always wanted to do this. There was someone I saw who was selling something very similar but he filled with some sort of liquid and had lights in it too..Guy was selling it for EUR 700 before shipping. yikes!

 

[jkno]

Really impressive!!

 

[nicky]

How would you be able to fill it with liquid and not have the paint peel off?

Still a WIP....

Really nice ,wanted to make something similar where did you get the tube and end caps from?

Still have a 1/1 facehugger wip and will probably never finish it but you never know,would look great in a stasis tube like this maybe you could sell some?

Looks Great!, can you fill that thing up with fluids?

 

[Detale78]

Yeah I plan on adding water to the tube but need to seal it off completely first so it wont leak. You need to use distilled water. In in order to prevent the paint from peeling off I coated the facehugger in numerous coats of 2 part clear epoxy resin which gives it a waterproof seal. I plan on adding a light to the display as well. The tube is made of acrylic so that is basically the most expensive part since acrylic is not cheap especially in a rounded shape like this. The rest is made of resin and metal components switches, ect that are non functional but for display purposes only. Thanks for the nice comments this has been one of my dream props for a long time. The stasis tube is from what I heard molded from the same ones used in the film Aliens if not is modeled after it so is extremely accurate.

Would love to see how that looks , with the right light on it and filled up.(Think it will look very cool!)
Hope to see some pictures of that someday.
But filled up or not, a cool thing to own, thats for sure.

 

[FelMar]

will look even better with the distilled water

Contact Frank C. for the facehugger probiscus. It'll look even more frightening with it.
