ALIENS LV-426 VEHICLE

Welcome to the Aliens LV-426 Vehicle webpage.  I created two separate vehicles. This is a dedication to master futurist artist Ron Cobb.  I love all of Cobb's amazing designs.   These vehicles can be seen parked in the exterior scenes of the Hadley's Hope Colony.   I reproduced them as a printable 3D meshes in 1:18th scale.  Purchase them individually or get them both together a massive discount.

PURCHASE BOTH SIMULTANEOUSLY AT A DISCOUNT:

 There's much material on this project on my FACEBOOK PAGE.

Pictured above is the film-used model used in ALIENS. Photos courtesy of our friends at the propstore of London.

This is a 3D print project in STL format.  The model is scaled at 1:18th scale, making it 12" wide at its widest section.  You can, of course, rescale the model smaller or larger depending on your printer.  Print in either FDM or SLA formats.

The main parts are KEYED to help orient parts during construction.
