A sad day, Oscar winner: 'Alien' creator H.R. Giger is dead - swissinfo.ch (http://www.swissinfo.ch/eng/culture/Alien_creator_H.R._Giger_is_dead.html?cid=38569780) :'(
Let's thank him for great inspiration for a lot of games (like R-Type,Captain Blood...) , films and so on...
:(
Yep, he was homaged (or ripped off) by many.
Like... gryzor ?
RIP in peace sweet prince of darkness.
R.I.P. As a kid his creations used to scare the shit out of me. Later on I used to have his posters on my wall for years...
To take a look to his genius, there is catalog of some works: Dark Art: Hans Rudi Giger gallery (http://art.vniz.net/en/giger/)
I had a CPC+ slideshow planned a few months back; but seems a little morbid to release it now.
I have collated all the lithographs and books I could find over the years; his work was, is and always will be genius.
R.I.P. H.R.G.

wut?
what would you expect from Giger ? the best of mylittleponey in friendshipland ?
The more bid the better hommage.
Also, does Captain blood style ring a bell ? quite gigerish to me...

Yep, now would be the best of all times to release it.

Phillipe Urlich wrotes on his Facebook that without Giger, Captain Blood would not be.

I'd say this is the moment to give him a tribute...
