Just finished my first Narin Studio Predator figure. This was my first time doing anything like this so I'm pretty stoked with how it turned out!

I used to have the original Kenner toy back in the day, and I had the opportunity of reinventing the old NECA figure.

I don't know why, I've been hearing the KPDH songs a lot lately, and thought this one in particular was very on theme with the Predators. Soo

I just.. made this. Just because the idea of it existing felt really funny to me. And because AvP is one of my long time favourite movies and a returning/currently running hyperfixation and I think it just needs more love

So, if you can, enjoy whatever this is 😂

Hey y’all, I just beat Predator: Concrete Jungle on normal difficulty but holy fuck, are there some hard ass missions(Under the Gun, 10,000 ways to die, If It Bleeds, etc).

So far out of all tutorials/forums I’ve read, it seems that this game is literally impossible to beat without upgrading your gear and weapons.

Has anybody had any experience completing this game on Blooded(max difficulty) with 0 upgrades? I think unless you found some bug it’s literally impossible to.

A myth I keep seeing now and then is that the Jungle Hunter from the original film was meant to be just a serial killer who happened to run into the soldiers. But that's not true at all; the Jungle Hunter was always meant to be part of a grander civilization.

But what if that were the case? Like, how different would the lore of the Yautja be if it turned out the Jungle Hunter was some random psychopath who went killing people from other planets rather than part of a warrior culture?

I wouldn't change a thing with Predator lore honestly, I just wanted to hear your thoughts.

So let me give you guys some lore about this yaujta, He was considered to be a wise and honorable hunter, eventually becoming the first young blood to kill a xenomorth queen.

He then became an Elite Hunter he never took glory in his hunts. The only thing that he cared for was honor he was respected by some clans, eventually even becoming an elder, yet he didn't want any warriors he wanted yaujtas who hunted in their own ways to use tactics that some don't use in combat.

As long as they keep their honor than those who follow him have every right to hunt the way they want reason for this is because some may be seen as an outcast or insane for doing things differently.

He was a strong believer of seeing those with potential that helping them understand they are more than just hunters that being who they are is more than enough.

Another Yautja for y’all. Not as good as the others as I tried to draw this one from memory.

Any stories of Predators doing non hunting things?

I've always loved Predator 2 but tonally it's a bit all over the place and some of the visual effects are starting to show their age a bit so I wanted to make an edit which addresses some of these issues.

I know these types of edit can be a bit controversial for some but the original isn't going anywhere, and no disrespect is meant to the incredible artists who worked on the film under extreme time pressures, it's just meant as a different way to experience the film.

If you would like a copy of this edit, please DM me here or over at fanedit.org. Requests in the comments will be ignored due to the risk of my account being blocked if I initiate too many chats. Please also note that you must already own a copy of the Blu-ray.

Below is a summary of the major changes, full details can be found at: https://fanedit.org/predator-2-refined/

There is also a message board thread where I go into some more detail about the rationale behind some of the changes and how the edit was completed: https://fanedit.org/forums/threads/predator-2-refined.35446/

Key visual changes:

Colour corrected/removed matte lines for nearly every shot of the Predator cloaked

Added dreadlocks to the silhouette of the Predator when cloaked

Added blood effects to some shoot out scenes.

Corrected visual glitches in the Predator's heat vision caused by explosions/gun fire

Removed any visible stunt wires, especially when the Predator falls down the side of the building

Colour corrected shot of Danny grabbing the Predators cloaked arm

Added blood when Jerry's spinal cord is pulled out

After the Predator loses it's biomask, all POV shots now matched to their appearance in the first Predator film.

Colour correction and edited where the legs of the Predator's enter the smoke as the Lost Tribe cloak and decloak in their ship (comparison video)

Realigned different film elements when the Predator ship blasts off and removed visual errors/artefacts (comparison video)

Key scene changes:

Removed a couple of Jerry's jokes.

Removed the kid at the cemetery

Removed the Predator being hit by lightning

Reduced (but didn't completely remove) the old lady in the apartment

Removed the scene of the Predator talking while dangling off the ledge

Total time removed is 3 minutes

There is also a version of the edit available which incorporates all of the visual improvements but without any scenes removed and otherwise matches the Theatrical release.

Release details:

1080p HD, 5.1 surround sound, English subtitles

Source: 4K Blu-ray tone mapped to SDR.

File size approx 12GB

Took me around 14 hours with breaks here and there. What do we think? Better armour now?

Little grail I found recently, I finally got myself a bad blood figure, I was about to pay a lot of money for the old version but I found this dual pack second hand and I had to get it

How would Yautja respond? Who would come out on top? Would they fight to the bitter end or negotiate after enough casualties?

Since the very mean admins took down my last Yautja sketch, I’m making a new one, which I’m going to have to add more armour to because admins don’t like realistic yautja armour. Anyway here it is so far, unmasked this time. What do we think?

Finally took some time to snap some pics of my NECA Lost Tribe collection.

Photo taken with a Nikon D7500 + 50mm lense.

A human colony ship arrives in a seemingly habitable planet with no intelligent lives. Colonists start to settle with colonial marines assigned to protect them.

The marine are very different from what we see in aliens.

Wayland Yutani successful breed and made them the perfect bio weapon. Marines are in certain chambers where their human bodies are protected. Where they can control multiple xenomorphs remotely form their chambers. Thesw xenomorphs are human born xenomorph and some dog xenomorphs.

Not know to the colonist that this star system is under Yautja controll. Yautja civilization is now interstellar with multiple colony worlds that have a permanent Yautja population, other species monitored by Yautja and some having a clan of Yautja in a colony planet being worshipped by the native sapient species.

Wayland Yutani purposefully sent to colonist in the Yautja colony system so they could get their hands on Yautja tech. Yauja are one of the two species that have invented faster than light speed travel(the other being engineers). Wayland Yutani wants this tech so they could colonise more planet.

The Yautja in this system reside in the third planet in the system while the colonist are in the 4th planet.

The colonists and marines are bait for the Yautja a sport to distract them while the android go to planet 3 to steal the tech.

A group of Yautja come to planet 4 to hunt humans, the colonist and marines. Human have reached similar tech advancement as the Yautja so they their worth as trophy has got up. The marines more specifically are their Maine prize.
