  1. So cool to see the behind the scenes of Alien Convenant especially the weapons. Big thanks for sharing all that.

  2. This is awesome, but Adam you’re mispronouncing “Tanfoglio”. In Italian the ‘gl’ consonant is a liquid l meaning it’s pronounced more like “Tan-folio”.

  3. Trying hard not to pay too much attention to the stuff in the background in case any of it is too spoiler-y.

  4. the shading in the blood they demonstrated is pretty cool. having figured out the pigmentation, it’d be such a shame not to make it into a fountain pen ink.

  5. Seems odd that the characters in the Alien universe would use vintage weaponry on a state of the art spaceship. The AUG was desigend in the 1960’s, there are more futuristic weapons they could have used designed later than that and more seldom used in 80’s action movies.
