Alien infestation

As a kid I was terrified by the Alien-movies. Creatures implanting their seed in your mouth, only to burst out of your chest later on to grow 2 meters tall and sneak around in the dark, killing everything in its path? No way, José!

This year I have been doing a short fan fiction Alien movie. It all started when I got a hold of a free 3d Alien model. When messing around with it, I realized I could probably learn character animation and actually make it convincing. I have good experience in 3d, just not character animation.

So this whole short is an excuse to learn bones, joints, IK-chain and so on. The process takes a lot longer than anticipated, but it is fun to see this monster come alive in front of me. I am almost 11, again.
