I'm looking forward to seeing what Joao has up his sleeve for this!

Check out his FB and Instagram for process pics and videos. I'm too lazy right now for cross posts...

Wanted to share this Alien fan-art a group of friends and I commissioned from Ruas a few months back. It took a while, but it was well worth the wait.

36x24" screen print w/ metallics.

If I was even remotely into putting an Alien on my wall, that would be it.

I'd go with Giger first, but this is about as close as you get to his vision while still retaining some artistic originality. Great commission.

this is better than any of the crap Mondo has released (alien-wise).

It's very nice, but I like the Ansin more.

False, but thanks for trying.

I can't tell if I love the title treatment or hate it. Either way, congrats.

Ruas is definitely quite the talent and the two properties you've tapped him for so far have been very smart choices, given his aesthetic.

Didnt realize there were any Ruas commissions set up. I would be interested in this poster for sure. If there are any available, hit me up. Great work!

Original is bonkers. Do ya get to keep that as part of the commish?

Perfect style for an Alien print. I would be interested in this as well if you need another spot to fill.

Thanks for all the kind comments guys. Will respond to PMs later today.

Nope. If anyone wants it I can put you in contact with him. I believe he was charging $3200 US. It's close to 11x17" size.

And yeah, his traditional work (all of it) is unreal.
