Samurai Ambushed by ALIEN Xenomorph (DIY Diorama)

I made a text RPG:

In this miniature diorama video, I wanted to combine Japanese Samurai culture with that of the Xenomorphs from Alien. What would happen if they met face to face? This diorama features my own designs for laser cut, fdm printed and resin printed models. A successful resin epoxy art pour for the water feature, and lots and lots of miniature vegetation.
All the colors blend together very nicely to the end result. I wanted the end glamor shots to resemble a night scene, with the light coming from inside the building, and moonlight illuminating the roof and the alien on top barely visible. Really happy with how the paper walls turned out, they let a lot of light diffuse through!

It is a bit reminiscent of a certain other diorama isn't it? You should get back at him and do a Dune themed diorama... maybe one up Knarbs 40k cathedral? When he starts doing scifi cowboys you know he's up to something: ) Now if Knarb had the samurai stalking the xeno instead.. Cool stuff Knarb. And running into Boylei here is cool. Probably my two favorite modelling nerds hanging out at the same virtual place is kinda neat (somehow, I guess?)

I still like your way of doing by cutting and glueing things rather than 3d printing.
A full "Alien vs _____" series between multiple markers would actually be cool, with everyone doing a different time period.

@@NuggetsDePollo i kinda half agree... but the tactics for fighting them are completely different. The Alien is hunting you, the xeno doesn't care. If it can't breed with you, it wants to kill you. Still, your idea WOULD make an awesome scene.

Whilst everyone is commenting on how brilliant this build truly is, I would also like to add that I loved your choice of some very soothing and peaceful music you used for your incidental soundtrack.
The construct process is so serene you forget there is a meat hungry killing machine to be added at the end.
It's unbelievable work :D

Beautiful! Just one tidbit. Tatami is never used outside. The porch should have been made with planks like the bridge. Over in Nijo Castle these planks have metal pins in them that clink when someone.....or would be assassin walks in them.

there's a short story about an Yautja hunting in Japan around the 1460th. there's also a very good story about the android Bishop from the Alien _both stories are from book "Aliens: Bug Hunt".The one about Bishop's origin is a short story named "Broken" by Rachel Caine_
It is very cool! I love the details.
I am actually in the process of scratch building a minka rn. I am using white parchment for the sliding doors and cheap art canvas for the tatami floor. Your build is stunning and a great motivational boost to get it done.

Amazing, just amazing. (And a huge like for your brilliant work)
The artwork on this is awesome. Very impressive. The only problem is that there would probably be a swarm of Xenos, not just the individual.
Noooo, not the lawyers!!!
I think you just predicted the next movie in the franchise
Ahahah I really relate to „feel like cancer“ laser cutter
It is irritating how some people make these things look easy.. LOLLIO

Great work Knarb. I'd love to see you do a similar one with a predator.

Luke Towan has a video about making paper palm trees you might want to check out.
I have thought about this mashup myself a few times. How would previous era humanity survive against Xeno infestation or Predator hunting trip? I think, if you take the Samurai culture that we know from the movies, as in highly mythicized and exaggerated, I can see them surviving the Xenos. The end lighting you set up really makes this pop, it gives the same feel as the earlier Aliens films with that dread/suspense.
