Backstory: Figure is based on the proposed Kenner line of action figures for the 1979 movie "ALIEN". When it was discoved that the movie was going to be released with an "R" rating, Kenner stopped production on the 4 inch figure line and they were never released to the public. A few unpainted prototypes rest in private collections, and reference photos can be found on the 'net.
Recipe: No figure was used as a base. It is all sculpted from from Super Sculpey. The flamethrower is from Medicom's Kubrick mini-figure line. The shoulder patches are printed on paper and glued on.
You have the face details absolutely perfect.
I love that it is an original sculpt.
