Hey everyone, here is my Xenomorph costume that my dad and I put together. It was a great learning experience and I hope to make a lot of improvements this year. I didn't think it was too bad though for me being only 11 years old.

Not bad looks better than the one I did a few years back out of spay foam and underarmor. I would repaint the mask, and trim the neck area and add some velcro to keep it from flopping out like in pic 2, and add some skeleton feet to it.
I was actually eying one of those skeleton costumes in an adult size thinking what mods it needed to make it a "bug".  I may revisit that idea after seeing yours. |

I may try to make a new head, and of course upgrade the body suit to make it more accurate. This was a two-day, off the cuff job just to see what could be done. Now that I have more time I can dedicate it to improving the overall costume. |

Awesome! Howdya keep the tail up like that? Good work!
P.S. Does everyone else find these neighbourhood Halloween photos endlessly funny seeing all the kids in the background in their lame normal costumes while some awesome Pred/Alien rocks it in the foreground? Hee hee!

I think that is super super great! Especially at your age to be so involved in costuming! What a great suit! Makes me wish I had a child to costume up ! I think when that does happen we will go to Dragon Con as a Predator family the first year with a baby Preddy !!!! LOL !

Whats a baby pred look like? Have any of you seen the clonewars Hut kid? Thats how I picture this, but with more hair and the mouth. Some happy lil mommy pred carryin her runt around in one of those wrap around sheet things. It would be great. Also one of you photo shop masters out there should crop the alien and pred kid and have them fighting. mainly cuz i have no skills.
