Imgur member Valaquen recently posted the ultimate collection of behind-the-scenes photos from Ridley Scott’s classic sci-fi/horror flick Alien, consisting of 253 pics with many more to come.
The photos reveal rarely seen concept art for the film, vehicle models, candid pics of the cast and crew, and costume designs created by Jean “Moebius” Giraud and Ron Cobb:
There are also some amazing pics of the late H.R. Giger hard at work on various aspects of the film, from concept art to painting models and costumes:
There are also a few shots of Giger putting the finishing touches on a model of the “starpilot”, a ¾ scale model which was sadly destroyed by fire soon after the film’s opening:
Valaquen has also posted behind-the-scenes galleries for Aliens, Alien 3, The Terminator and T2, and hopefully he'll continue to share more behind-the-scenes photos with the fans!
