alien facehugger bonus demo 3D Model

alien facehugger bonus demo 3D Model max, Van Cubanb82

the alien warrior was modeled in 3ds max 2008, and textured in zbrush 3.1 and photoshop. it has a little over 17,000 polygons, and renders very fast. the included texture maps are jpegs converted from large resolution bitmaps so you can place a camera relatively close to the alien without texture degradation. the model is rigged using biped and the inner mouth and head are separate objects with a morph modifier applied to them so you can control them independently. the tail is attached to the model but it's a separate object with a bend modifier to create smooth curves. it can also be rigged with splines and a skin modifier if you want another form of animation control.

the facehugger is rigged with the skin modifier, and has a morpher modifier applied to it, which allows the ovipositor (tube that goes down the host's throat) to slither in and out of the underside of the model. the model was created with 3ds max and zbrush.

bonus model!!

my alien queen head is comprised of two objects: the crest and the head, itself. the head is rigged with a morph modifier with 13 morph targets applied to it!! great care was taken to ensure it moves like the queen in the film aliens. this is a preview model, but check back soon for the finished model!!

coming soon: alien egg (with and without rigged facehugger), chestburster, and the lethal predalien!!
