That xenomorph spider is an abomination, and I mean that as a compliment.  He's Alien vs. Predator part 3 ready.

How cool would it be to see this in a new Alien vs. Predator! Awesome idea Sjefke!

Tim, did you have this idea on your own or does this exist in that genre already? Either way just a fantastic piece. My daughter was looking at the site this morning and marveled at that creation.

[JetpackBlues]

I'm not aware of it existing anywhere. I guess it's always possible. This was a result of me not wanting to throw away a broken xenomorph figure I had that the legs broke off of. The plan was to just chuck it. I sent KrashOveride the original head and put the torso in my dump bin. I'm dumping a ton of old fodder and figures to make room for my incoming infant. But then I found a Shelob figure while cleaning and this just seemed right. Haha. I had to rip the head off of The Beast xenomorph figure but it's looking to be worth it. Still have a whole lot of little details to add but so far so good

I was thinking Hobbit Spider, but man what an epic creation. I could see an entire comic series or movie series revolved around that beasty.

Where as I was thinking a comic series with the custom that resulted from the removal of Shelobs head.

LOL! I would read that one too.

With baby preparations and Fallout 4 eating all my time I've put very little of it aside fr customs. But, between my obsession with Fallout 4, and Fallout in general hence my last few customs I decided to start work on everyone favorite Synth.

Just a quick piece of work on Constable Zuvio. some very minor weathering and some facial reworking. I really like the figure but from the images of him from the movie (before he was cut out) he seemed to have bigger eyes, so I apparently had to give him bigger eyes

Looks a lot better to me. Off to share with more comments on the front page.

I am hoping I see that spider alien show up in the favorite customs from 2015 section.

Great work mate.

I never finished the spider alien. I had a mishap that rendered one leg static and another hanging by a thread. It needs to be glued back on which will render that leg static as well. So I've given up out of frustration.

Thanks Hemble

I really dig your skin job in a trench coat character.  Did you sculpt that?
Suvio looks good too.  I didn't know he was cut from the movie.  What a waste.  Nobody is going to buy him now.
I'm devastated by the spider alien mishap.   Don't give up on him.  I've frozen joints with careless crazy glue applications.  It'll probably take replacing the ball joints, but form what I've seen, that's well within your skill sets.   

[JetpackBlues]

It may be within my skill set but I'm not sure if it's in Shelob's make up. The joints that attach to her torso are soft rubber and to get them out and altered may be more destructive to the work already done than just dealing with 2 frozen legs. At worst I won't be able to sell it. Haha

[Tamer]

Daggone it! I really enjoyed that one and was hoping to see more of it. I still think it was one of the coolest things I saw in 2015 customizing wise. Here is the thread if you want to share a few:
