The “Alien” (sometimes referred to as a “Xenomorph”) is an endoparasitoid extraterrestrial species.  These Aliens do not have a technological civilization, but are predatory creatures with no goals other than propagation of their species and the destruction of those that threaten it.  Like wasps or termites, Aliens are eusocial, with a single fertile queen breeding a caste of warriors.  Swiss surrealist artist H. R. Giger created the original design for the Alien in a lithograph entitled “Necronom IV”.  The story behind ALIEN was created by Dan O’Bannon and Ronald Shusett.  ALIEN was directed by Ridley Scott.

Today, you are challenged to draw the XENOMORPH ALIEN for about 30 minutes!
