Here's my first sketch, which is inspired by the second film, and which I scanned before coloring just in case I lost control of a marker at an inopportune moment. I am really happy with the dynamism that one-point perspective gives to this piece!
This is the moment when Corporal Hicks is teaching Ripley to use the big gun. He wants to show her how to fire. She wants to learn "everything."
Yay perspective.
My first piece sprang from the second movie, so I took my second piece from the third movie, because then it's a thing. This moment is one I would give to Ripley if I could, because in the film, when she goes to the morgue to see Newt's body, there is no time for crying or grieving; she must immediately start advocating for an autopsy so she can determine if Newt was killed by an alien. Here, in my ATC, she can have a moment.
You would never guess from this how long I spent drawing doors, or how I almost broke my brain trying to draw the tray where poor Newt is laying under a sheet. I wish I had taken a picture before I added Ripley, but alas. I was in too much of a hurry!
For my third piece, I tried to get a little too ambitions. This is a stab at doing a line of cryo tubes:
It looked okay in pencil, but once I started inking everything went south. There are too many curved lines that follow perspective at only one point, with curves that I could not seem to make exactly the same from tube to tube. ABORT!
In the end, I did my third card from the fourth movie. The perspective is subtle, but i do think it makes the card more dynamic:
