The Alien Queen is just one design no one dares to mess with. She looked amazing in both Aliens and AVP. I hope we see her again commanding her insect-like children.

3:27 even though I know it’s an animatronic being controlled like a big puppet, that guy has some serious balls to stand this close to such a terrifying sight Call me a wuss if you want but this is game over for me man, game over

Imagine yourself working on this and its nearly finished and the one night you forgot something there and you go to pick whatever it is up and you find this thing moving on its own. Worst prop gone to life scenario ever, or worst prank done by a fellow co-worker.

Siolfor80 If you ever do, make sure you wait for him in the dark and where he can't see you. A true Xenomorph would attack when their prey is unknowingly turning their back to them. Hide in the closet and keep all the lights off until he comes and turns on the lights before scaring the shit out of him by sneaking behind him and scaring the living shit out of him XD It would also be scary if you were taller than him.

Siolfor80 Having the movie running would be too much of a hint for what might be going on. You want things to seem normal when your roommate gets there. At best, pause the movie and have an empty/half empty bag of popcorn somewhere, but don't be around the movie, you want to make it seem like you got up to use the bathroom or something. And a major bonus is if you got the hissing for the Xenomorph to sound, play it right behind him in his ear XD

CGI is less cost efficient and time efficient. it takes some 560 computing hours to render a single second of CGI, that's 45 frames btw. and it costs some 7-10k per second. practical effects cost maybe around that much to build in total, and they take less hours to film and build.

did you not read what i posted up before? 560 computing hours, for a single second of full CGI. 7k at the cheapest per second. costs maybe around 10k to make an animatronic and a bit more to touch that up with CGI here and there. that is how you make CGI in movies affordable, practical effects + touch up with CGI. Full CGI, i admit, IS less restrictive but it is by no means cheaper OR faster.

GHAAADAYUMM!! Even those molds are works of art!!

beautiful, from the sculpting, the molds and animatronic puppetiring... keep showing the world we don't need to abuse on CGI... Hope you use that queen for something awesome on the future...

***** I can also render something on my own computer but this is nothing compared to movie CGI. 1 second of CGI = ca.$7000 CGI is compute intensive. A single CGI frame can take upto 12 hours to render depending on complexity. There are 45 frames in a second so that's 540 compute hours for a SINGLE interation of a SINGLE second of CGI. Most shots see at least 20 iterations so make that 10.800 computer hours.

I absolutely love this. My sister just recently got Mortal Kombat X (I think, it's on PS4) with the Xenomorph DLC, and sense the Queen is part of one of the fatalities, I was curious to get another look of her. The animatronic was very well made, I love how much she's able to move and the level of detail. Incredible work!

wow, that's a hell of an engineering feat! well done and a convincing replication.

She was the best part of the AvP movie imo. Perfectly done.

If only the dude who was face to face with the queen was wearing a batman suit.......then it would'v been perfect :)

The work behind this is so remarkable. And it looks real.

I love the detail on the queen, great job (as usual) constructing this masterpiece. :) The machinery always baffles me!

The guy at 3:40 looks legitimately terrified so you know its a job well done. It looks so satisfying to create this prop. Makes me want to buy that Queen Alien in hive play set by Kenner, its probably only one of the Kenner Aliens i don't have, lol.

I know Universal Studios used to have a graveyard lot where they kept all their old movie monsters and props on display, but they didn't maintain any of them and just left them to rot in the sun; eventually they were torn apart for scrap. The original Alien Queen is in France and is being privately maintained, but sadly, not all practical effects monsters are so lucky.

I remember hearing how the puppeteers didn't quite get the mouths in the right order at one point. This meant that the inner mouth shot out at a colossal speed and made the teeth explode out of its head. An expensive yet hilarious mishap.

I'd love to put one on the house roof, like a life-size gargoyle.

Very, very cool! Her Majesty back in action was the best part of AVP

I think there's a few museums world wide that keep cinematic props, and there are some people who collect things strictly from the movie. I remember in the Aliens Quadrilogy pack that came out some 7-9 years ago had bonus material featuring a guy who kept strictly Alien(s) props . . . turns out the Queen head/torso used in Resurrection was the same used in Aliens. Thought that was pretty cool.

A great piece of art. A beautiful work.
