Intro

Dan Bickell's second model, and its damned cool. Very remeniscant of the alien movies, and it wouldnt surprise me if they werent the only works of giger that inspired the design of this model.

Originality

To my knowledge, its the first plugin player, inspired by the popular, twisted surrealist, Giger...

The Model

The model is imacculate, almost perfect, though it suffers from being ever so slightly boxy because it was created from a bunch of seperate objects.
Score: Nine

The Animations

These animations are very cool, and sinister. However there are some simple problems in the animation, like the body not moving in the run animation though nothing big enough to notice in DM.
Score: Nine

The Skin

3 great, though very simaler skins. Capture the mood of the model with some clever subtle shades...
Score: Nine
