Modeling pipes is easier, welding true real pipes is tricky.
prometheus
REBORN
That´s the mask to use when the next pandemic comes
Hr Gigers spacejockey though, my all time favourite prop.
Huge set made in plaster and real animal bones I think.
Unfortunately that set was destroyed in a fire.
Looking at your video I "figured out" a way to decrease the film production costs.. Why not sell these masks / items before they are made for real to someone upfront. i.e. an exclusive producer who just paid for XYZ item upfront. If the film is successful, they have a valuable item, otherwise investor..

Oki doki, here we go again...
Like pilatus, I wash my hands free from what humans do stupidly wrong and not right with the power I bestow on to them, but you should know that this is our priviliege to do so, you and me of course.
This is the curse of being the prometheus, eagles and sh..t and Senseis, always coming back and haunt you with a revengeous set of mind.
The prometheus story, the wound at the liver, the eagle attacking and eating it.
The holy man on the cross, the wound inflicted on the crucified body, by a roman, who in fact represent the eagle in a way.
Now..one of these tories was made before the other.
The Eagle during the nazi era
The Eagle representing Capitalism, and that big brother eye that may strike down and surveil on you.
Well..let´s say, I don´t fancy Eagles, even if it landed on the moon, and even as it saved the good ones in LOTR, and King Arthur.

Good point,
and the companies actually started doing that the later years.
The reason why George Lukas got so filthy rich by the way was not because of the films,
but because he owned the Star Wars merchandise/toys he sold afterwords, an agreement he had with 20th Century Fox.
as soon as 20th Century Fox realized this Mega-Enormous-Mistake, it was never done again.
George was happy tho'

I think George took a risc there by sacrificing his salery for that deal.
You're talking about selling toys from movies which are already popular.. These toys have very little with the movie.. They are made in China, India etc. They have not been on the set.
I was talking about selling in-advance what scenographer will make for non-existing movie set yet.
