As an unabashed Alien fan, getting to work on this Cheyenne dropship was a lot of fun. The client plans on using it for 40k as well as AvP, so the Deathwatch/Astra insignias were added as well as Imperial guard markings.
The landing gear and deck are magnetized, so that it can be mounted on an Imperial Knight sized base for 40k.

Awesome work as always! It fits into 40k seamlessly!

I actually thought the opposite. It doesn't fit that well to me (but I also don't think the kit is particularly amazing). I think it's missing an awful lot of small etching they could have done to really make it look authentic.

Very cool. Where is "Hicks" & "Riply"?

Thanks man! I have no use for it, but I really really want one for myself.

Yea, its a lot of smoothness on it, which I agree could have been more detailed (especially for the price). I will say, the client had a NIGHTMARE of a time getting it to me, Prodos had really terrible customer service.

Hicks passed away sadly and Ripley fell into a smelter before a really unfortunate reboot occurred.

Looks great! Love the colors and freehand!

Very jealous. That vehicle is iconic to my childhood!
