Ripley (Compression Suit) (Aliens) Custom Diorama / Playset
Custom #:85013
Name:Ripley (Compression Suit)
Custom Type:Diorama / Playset
Toy Series:Aliens
Creator:Mattttt  
Date Added:August 26, 2016
Base Figure:NECA
Height:7.00 inches
Figures I used:
NECA Ripley compression for the head and the compression suit.
NECA Sin City Shelly color for the body
NECA Carrie for the arms

Short scene but oh so memorable!
The hardest part was to give an "empty" aspect to the compression suit. For this, I cut the left leg in two tranches that I rejoined after shortened. I carved additional folds.
I reassembled the parts of the top of the suit and shoulder pads.
I re-sculpted the Ripley's hair, her panties and tank top.
The rack is made from large ice sticks. I have not filled them because we do not see very well what is in it in the film (caps ...).
I used barbecue spears for the "scale".
I found the hook in a DIY store and the two plates to form the floor and the wall.
I stuck the pistol and spear on the side of the rack.

For the cat's box, I used balsa wood, packaging for grapes to make the glass. I pasted printed a padded bottom to the inside and put "Weyland Yutani" stickers. The box opens and closes ! It does the job until NECA produce it.

Ripley is not very expressive,paint imperfections give her cellulite but I'm pretty happy with the result !

You've captured the scene perfectly! It reminds me of a very hard to find 1/6 model kit called "Lucky Star"!

Really creative parts use, great work creating a dynamic diorama, which is difficult to do when it's not an action scene.
