a) Updated and re-edited Illustrations from Linda C. Cain and Susan Rosenbaum's "Blast Off" (1973) by Leo and Diane Dillon (I don't know what happened here but I hadn't finished posting all the links for the pages of comparisons, or perhaps it had reverted back to an slightly earlier version of the page which does seem to occasionally happening. That sounds like a poor excused but tt happened right before my eyes once. But this page deals with how Giger referenced this illustrations in his Mordor paintings as if he knoew of a significant referenced work for each. So I worked out three)
h) Added: HR Giger: N.Y. City II Lovecraft over N.Y. City (work 452) (1980) by HR Giger references Radio Times July 3-9 1976 cover "Viewing America" as a separate page for the comparisons between the painting and the Radio Times photograph

i) I decided to break the "Alien Covenant: The xenomorph - a stripped-down killing machine" down into a number of different pages and with that added information based on quotes from Cinefex #153 and the Conor O'Sullivan interview for the Reel Feedback podcast. Unfortunately, the story of the process of whatever went on there seems very fragmented still.
July 27th 2021
i) Added Alien beast by Fraco since people were still confused about the illustration and thought it was by Moebius
July 24th 2021
i) Had a go at adding more details to Alien production timeline May 1978 and Alien Production Timeline June 1978 such as Giger having an acid trip in June when she arrived. I keep finding things that ought to be there are not and I thought that I had written a chapter on Giger's use of LSD but somehow it has been erased, and one wonders what to make of these inconsistancies. Although I have written all of thise out in the timelines which should really be brief, they might as well become more complicated, in order for me to really work out what I think that I am doing rather than guessing about what these brief references mean
i) Added Alien: HR Giger's Space Jockey and the "Pacal Votan" tomb lid as an exploration of the relationship between the two
July 4th 2021
i) Added: Alien Covenant: Alien Newborn by Colin Shulveri) Updated Alien: The TV series

i) Added: the make of the radio control box seen in the photo at Alien: David Watling's Alien Head
I don't know if we can find out enough because Ridley only gives vague fragments of the development of his ideas for the evolution of the Space Jockey scenario which is infuriating for an Alien fan.
What we have are bare bones and very little to flesh it out with. Posting quotes from Ridley as something conveying meaning isn't good enough, because they don't always mean that much for anyone really wanting to know something.
Is there another direction to go with this? I'd like to go there.
i) Added: A separate page for "HR Giger: The theme of Nut the Sky Goddess involved in Giger choice of grave stone" was made on 3rd March 2021 although the information had been published here as soon as photos showed up of the tomb stone which was shortly after the completion of the grave memorial in 2016
