there must be the great front view of the queen in the hive from the movie. (theres a scene where u can see it clearly) someone have to make a screenshot <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> .. those "spider legs" lookin scary
I just sent eight shots to Daph of the Queen from the DVD I have. Might help, might not. At least he can get her positioning right. And the ovipositor in the movie isn't as big as it is in AvP2, nor does AvP2's model include the sexay mouth thing.

After about 20 minutes, I have come up with this... mind you, it's not near completion... lots of fine-tuning to be done... also needs ceiling supports, which will come in time.
My only real gripe is that the sack is very low-poly, and the texture isn't that great either. If I could get a brand new highpoly, highres texture sack, it would look a lot better.
In the reference pics I sent you, they show as being up along the length of her head, palms turned out. I can cap more shots and send them too, if you need. Lots in a short sequence so you can really see them. It's not easy in the ones I sent, I know.
Here floats the support-less queen in her hive. The featurelessness of the sack really bothers me. I'm not sure how to remedy this, without developing an entirely new sack, which I'm afraid I won't be able to do.
Here's a list of things that still need to be done: -add ceiling supports to hold the queen and sack up -add animations
If you have any experience with animating and are interested in animating this model, please email me. Not many things need to be done with the animation, just basically an idle anim, a pain anim, and a couple others. Really quite simple, i'm sure, but I have no experience animating so having someone do it for me would speed up the process tremendously.
so hows it gonna be when u attack it? is the queen gonna flinch or anything?

I have found the Empress and her sack, and the Empresses' sack seems to be of a better quality than the queen's sack in terms of visuals, but I cannot find the texture that goes on the empresses' sack. Can anyone else find it?
i dont think thats possible..because when the hive dies all it does it turn seethru like...i dont think it would be able to do that.. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
im talkin about the animation since the animation is small..i would figure that the alien would drop at a fast speed since the animation is small..i can picture it normal gravity where it would be....well..i cant explain it..normal i guess..+_+

She's suspended from the cieling. Maybe just go limp and one support lets go, so she goes skewed.
I already gave Daph those pics, man.
There's an Empress model in AvP2?
The models and skins Daph's posting pics of are the queen and sack from AvP2. I wasn't aware that the game contained something bigger. Unless you mean the empress that's being made for an AvP2 mod.

You remember where the ovipositor attaches to the Queen's rear end, right?
I've played with this idea and I think it's a good one. Having the queen in the center allows players to focus on that as the target, and the sack fills in the rest. After about 20 minutes, I have come up with this... mind you, it's not near completion... lots of fine-tuning to be done... also needs ceiling supports, which will come in time.
j/k
great finish this and relase

Does such a model exist that would be able to be converted to natural selection?

its not slow motion, things would normally just fall straight down
