Constantine Sekeris sketches for alien lifeforms

Edge FX's  Face-hugger concepts
a) Here is a sketch and rough sketch for a proposed facehugger.  Each measures 17 x 14 inch. These original pencil designs were by Constantine Sekeris, for Steve Johnson's Edge FX bid to do the creature suits for AVP.

b) Many FX companies presented design concepts for AVP before ADI were hired. Edge FX produced these concepts for the face huggers , created by Constantine Sekeris. The original sketch was scanned and coloured digitially so physical images of this art only exist as printouts.  Measures 13 x 19 inch.

Edge FX Alien Warrior concepts
a. This original pencil design was also by Constantine Sekeris for Steve Johnson's Edge FX bid to do the creature suits for AVP. This is another sketch for a proposed Alien Warrior. , measures 17 x 14 inch.

The first sketch here shows a fairly abstract variant on the idea of an alien warrior creature, with this entity's head ending as a sharp point it has no tail but has two long tentacles sprout from his back, the tentacle on the right displays finger like appendages extending from the tip.

b. For these, pictures by Constantine Sekeris. original sketches was scanned and coloured digitially so physical images of this art only exist as printouts.  Measure 13 x 19 inch.  The creature in the first completed sketch has strangely elongated middle digits that seem to recall the over sized fingers of the alien warriors in Alien Vs Predator

Constantine Sekeris sketches for alien lifeforms

a) These original pencil designs were done by Constantine Sekeris, for Steve Johnson's Edge FX bid to do the creature suits for AVP, however  they lost out and ADI continued to do the creature designs for this part of the Alien franchise. Sketches for a proposed Alien Queen, the first with two extra legs protruding from her shoulders , the second, third and fourth with four legs, the fifth with three legs and the last is an earlier rough sketch which shows the more classic Aliens design.  each measures 17 x 14 inch. Source yourprops.com and Steve Johnson FX on Facebook.

b) A thing to note about Constantine's work, he has a penchant for creating monsters with long limbs that end with dagger like tips so entities with these sorts of appendages are likely to turn up in numerous drawings by this artist
