Alien vs. Predator ADI - Creating the Queen (2004)

The Alien Queen is one of the most iconic creatures in science fiction, and for AVP, we were excited to create her once again. Built in four-and-a-half months, the full-size Queen featured 72 points of movement that could be programmed using motion control or puppeteered live. Here you will see all the hard work that went into re-creating the royal bitch, right up to her first fleshed out test with our own Chris Ayers having to face her down (just to give her some scale). To his credit, he only flinched once--the real mess he made was out of frame. Courtesy of ADI.
