I'd not seen Jack Skellington. As you say very much like the Farman

Hmmm, how about this? Shark/tiger/alien mouth as Giger-esque artwork on a CzAF Mi-24/35, Tiger Meet 2016:










Who builds it as a model?  ;D

That's both nightmare material and a paintshop nightmare.  I do love how they painted the drop tanks as facehugger eggs

I really like the subtle color variations with teal and purple - and I wonder how many hours this must have taken. Anyway, awesome work, and a refreshing, new take on the Tiger theme.  :wub:

It is stunning but are these schemes done by recruited specialists or just guys in service but with a talent ?

Back when he was in the Belgian Air Force Danny Coremans, him of DACO products, used to design the special schemes on their demo aircraft, paint them and then do decal sheets and sell 'em.  :thumbsup:

I think nowadays she still does the 1:1 scale designs as a contractor too.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

In this case, the head behind this design is Jan Rükr, a big alien fan and also an SF modeler (he created, among others, a paper model of the USS Sulaco from Aliens).

Not quite as spectacular as the Alien Tiger, the Firey Tiger was the other Czech Tiger Meet 2016 contribution:
