A few more early concept drawings for ''Alien Earth''. The alien was designed to be a more agile climber, hence the more muscular tail. 2

Check out my other PREDATOR work on my website: https://t.co/EDeerYzAc9 The Emissaries are the intellectual class of the Predator homeworld. They are NOT hunters. This was a great opportunity to come up with a new design. Thoughts? 3

Early Upgrade Predator concept sketch I did for THE PREDATOR (2018) @thestudioADI. An important aspect was that he has human DNA. In this early sketch I tried to make him look like a hybrid, and gave him more human looking traits. 1

Griever ''Key'' design I did for The Maze Runner. (2014) Sculpted by the talented John Wrightson at Autonomousfx. My idea was to put the key in an organic shell which the gladers find in the squashed Griever body. 3

Beetle Blade Design I did for The Maze Runner. Unfortunately they didn't end up in the film, but I had a blast working on them. They appeared in a few scary scenes in the film script. Essentially they are 'observation cameras' which crawl through the maze and attack people. 2
