For Alien fans

[Pennyrick]

The swiss artist H.R. Giger did many fantasy art creations but his most memorable work was the creature in the movie Alien. Unfortunately Giger died last fall but his artwork lives on.

On our recent Spyder trip to the Carolinas and Tennessee we stopped in a number of shops and in one of them located in Blue Ridge, Georgia I found this piece in the front of the store.

It is Giger's Alien sculpted entirely from Yamaha engine parts... connecting rods, spark plugs, springs, gears, chains, wires... several engines were probably used in making this.

Oh Yeah! I am a fan of the Alien series of movies. They really did/do have that scare factor. :yikes:

Can't remember the store name... I know it is on Main street in Blue Ridge somewhere in the 600 series of numbers.

They had a horse I liked made out of old parts that was priced at $850 so I'm guessing the Alien would be in the $1,500-$2,000 range.

Yes; but this one doesn't stick it's tongue down your throat, and bust your chest open... :shocked:
THAT's got to be worth something! :D
