David and Sigourney on the set of Alien 3 (1992)
Cutie patooties
hello fellow alien fan... would you be at all interested in exchanging thoughts about this iconic film franchise? need to talk about it fr
Hello there! Thanks for reaching out. I have way too many thoughts about the franchise but feel free to DM me if you have specific questions as well.
It’s def my favorite franchise and the first film is tied at my first favorite movie (tied with Carol [2015]).
Ripley is obviously my favorite character but I adore every character in the original.
Love Aliens a lot and I have a soft spot for Alien 3 a lot.
I own the original three on VHS cause why not, I do a lot of artwork based on it, have WAY too much merch from it, have a tattoo from it, own the soundtrack as well, and just convinced my orchestra director to let us do the main theme from the first movie this spring for our concert! So yeah, you could say I understand your obsession.
My Alien Franchise hot take is that Clemens and Ripley (Alien 3) are a better couple than Hicks and Ripley (Aliens).
I’ve played the video game, of course, and it’s what helped me and my girlfriend really bond when we first met at music camp. She’s bought me way too many things from Alien, even making me an anniversary card with a Xenomorph drawing on the front!
I’m in love with Ellen Ripley and my crush on Sigourney Weaver is what first turned me onto the franchise so thanks, Siggy!
Anyways, I rambled but you asked for it! Let me know if you have any thoughts or other questions, I love talking about this topic!
Here are some of my alien franchise shenanigans
For some reason I've overlooked this photo heavily in the past. Not today, folks. The sensuality of her face and position, the unzipped jumpsuit, the no shirt, the wet hair, the badass-ness of leaning on your enemy...yeah, this is a fucking 10/10 Ripley photo.

New Nostromo Crew Shoes!
The ones on the left are off brand converse I got at Walmart (I got them for Halloween but they aren’t accurate or well made enough)
The ones on the right I got off eBay cause I have been looking for PF Flyers forever!! Super happy with the look.
You're welcome.
Ummm so I watched The Gorge just for Sigourney a little while ago.
I liked it! Not great as a film but it was fun, and they severely underused Sigourney…

Parker and Brett, from "Alien"! This one was done at the suggestion of a dear friend, who wisely pointed out that I had never drawn this supreme dirtbag duo who are so near and dear to my heart, and that I should rectify that situation.
