the files have been fixed by Cults website to unzip with all programs including Winzip Winrar.

edit 17/10/2020
One of my customers reported a fault with the download in that it will not unzip . . He has found that 7Zip can extract files not Winzip or WinRar. It has also been reported that tghe base is missing from some downloads and not others . so I have uploaded a FREE download of missing parts for any one who missed it.
Hopefully Cults will fix these problems with the zip file but until I get a reply I will leave this notice on the screen.

Always enjoyed the movies Species . . .OK the first one ..but somehow the Alien "SIL" was just not sexy enough as an Alien.
So here’s my version a little leaner, out go the “billy bob teeth” and a bit more definition of the legs and arms than the movie costume. ..
This is part1 of a two part diorama (see included pics for details)

Haven't had time to paint my model yet but its all printed (as you can see by last 3 pics) and ready to go . . will post some pics of finished model soon.

3 x heads with this one Sil the Alien, Eve as a human and a half Eve/Sil
2 x Upper Torso’s one full Alien large spikes, full body morph and one half torso still human smaller spikes.
2 part base that will link with part2 of diorama. FDM print only as its big . .unless you have a very large resin printer!
Separate FDM files orientated for better print/less supports
1 x Bonus Head/Torso stand . . if you couple with armless torso you get a head stand, or if you opt for the magnetic torso attachment you get a stand for the spare torso and spare head . .

I have been requested to show how I fit magnets to align with more than one part .. so have included brief picture tutorial, using epoxy resin and clear poly sheet. Do have a try at this, it will give you more enjoyment from your printed model to be able to mix heads and torso’s.

I SHARE MY WORK FOR OTHERS TO ENJOY. . .PLEASE DO NOT SHARE THESE FILES ON SOCIAL MEDIA OR OTHER WEBSITES. LINKS TO THIS PAGE ARE ACCEPTED
All of the parts are orientated to print base ready to print with your favorite slicer . .

All parts are cut files to fit build plate of small resin printers like the Photon, examples in images SLA orientated for least support and strongest print orientation, as seen in the images.
These orientations work for FDM printing but you may find a better orientation that reduces support.
All the parts have been printed and developed to print, A lot of prints have been produced to get the figures corrected and fault free.

The model is 1/6 scale and is approx. 310mm tall when standing on base.

Why cut into many smaller parts I have been asked?
1. If you try and assemble this, then paint it . .it would be difficult to paint into hidden areas, less masking when painting separate parts.
2. Smaller parts not only allow for Resin print at full scale, but also allow individual parts to use less supports than one larger part on FDM printers
So now you know!
Please do not scale down or adjust my recommended settings for infill etc. . . as you can see from the pictures this prints very well and I believe you will be pleased with the result when completed.
All of my models are only released when they can print! so please do not remix or "fix" faults in this model then republish! If there is a fault then let me know . . message me I will answer and fix problem. . apart from that print make enjoy.
I make these models for my own collection but I am always open to suggestions of content for models that cover the DC and Marvel universe as well as TV and film cult images e.g. Barbarella. so message me if you have any ideas . .
As always enjoy the parts on offer.
People ask me why the detail is so prominent (not just the girly bits) but the muscle tone, anatomy, clothing etc. on my models . . well as they are primarily made/designed for my own collection I always sand down with fine emery then have models subjected to an Acetone vapor bath for 60 seconds when using FDM. This seals the shells and makes a smoother appearance but removes some detail . . hence build more detail into the model . . hope you like.

TIPS:
Resin Printing;
Head’S hollow 2.70 Raft 101
Torso’s hollow 2.70 to avoid hollow arm on Half human.
ALL other Princess parts at 2.40mm Raft 92
Lower torso hollow 2.70 due to left foot.
Arms and Shin . . do NOT hollow.
All parts will fit into small SLA printer.
All parts on FDM were print tested at 0.12 speed 50
ALWAYS dry assemble and “trim” parts prior gluing.
You can actually assemble all of the model prior painting, no difficult areas to paint
