It is the powerloader from the Aliens movie.

I didn't make the original mesh, just doing the poser conversion.

Will eventually be a free stuff item with poses for driver, animation files (walking, running, falling, getting up, picking up box), MAT textures, animation file for driver climbing in, etc.

sigh Do remember to ask permission from the original creator. :) And I do hope you didn't grab that off my old site, as I do have permission to distribute it. Nice work if you did it. The crushing and bending of the mesh as displayed in the image can be beaten fairly easily (and the version I released earlier this year was fixed accordingly), but it does take a bit of extra work. Makes the thing look a heck of a lot better without all that organic nonsense that poser adds to meshes. :)

Yep, I do have permission from the creator. Sorry, Questor, what is the address for your site. I got this from D. Proctor's site.

Found this, but it's not working? http://digitalfyre.com/Questor/

My site is down, has been since middle of this year. The hosting server moved home and I didn't bring the site back up because of people distributing my models as their own. Great that you have permission, sorry to be so medieval about it but there's been rather a lot of nonsense lately as I'm sure you'll know. As regards the mesh smoothing that's causing that "bending" of the model, I'll be happy to help you sort that out if you're interested. Email is Questor@shalako.demon.co.uk if you have any questions.

I don`t think that giger would bother with you making a poser alien character unless he is going to make one himself :)

Oh he is relentless about his copyrights. That and "Universal" I think had the other Poser one pulled or something.

Someone else (whoever made the currently available alien poser model) wanted to make a queen, and I sent him about 40 pictures of the McFarlane queen figure, so he would have better resources.. never heard back from him, so that project might be shelved...

I saw the alien for poser somewhere available for download about 3 weeks ago...


Questor ( ) posted Wed, 24 December 2003 at 5:52 PM

There is an "alien" for poser available, it's similar in many respects but it's not Giger's alien. Currently I honestly can't remember who made it. It wasn't bad and I've used it in a couple of images in the past. Giger is horribly militant about his copyrights and they're fairly simple to enforce because of the unique nature of his art. But it boils down to the same thing with Battlemechs and Star Wars/Star Trek. You can get away with it for a certain amount of time but is it worth the risk? Paramount had a really serious embolism on fan sites and are still active in closing some down depending on the level of infringement of the franchise. Same with George Lucas, he's also very militant in protecting the franchise and while there's a wealthy of Star Wars resources in models and suchlike there's just as many who disappear overnight for whatever reason. The PowerLoader, Dropship, APC and various other articles from alien/aliens are available as 3D models in various places. It may be that it's just beneath notice at this time, it may be they don't care, it's impossible to say. While I would absolutely LOVE to have a good model of Giger's alien to play around with I wouldn't really expect anyone to produce one, free or for sale. Although, I think I could cheerfully kick anton somewhere painful for losing the files of his model. :)
