why can't it just be An alien from alien?

Alien and predator were allways better separate.

sorry for late reply, to upload, goto imageshack (google it), upload it on there, then somewere there should be "direct link to image" somewere near the bottom, copy it, and paste it beetween these two tags: [img ] and [/ img] (remove the spaces beetween the "g" and "]" for the first tag and remove the remove the space beetween the "[/" and "img]" for the second tag) tada! you're done

Splicerocks:  This is a forum, not a chat room.  That means, people aren't on at every minute, and you should treat the conversation more like a forum as well.  You have multiple posts in here that give useless information, such as asking if someone's still there.  You're not very likely to get much of a response from someone right away.  Sometimes you have to wait a day or two.
A lot of your questions can be answered by reading the manual found here:
http://anim8or.com/manual/index.html (http://anim8or.com/manual/index.html)

It doesn't sound like you've read it, and simple questions like this can get annoying since they're very easily answered if you just put in some effort.  Google is your friend, as well as the search function on this forum.  If you have a question, try to answer it yourself by using the manual, google and the search function.  If you still dont have an answer feel free to ask the question.

Sorry for sounding harsh here, I'm just letting you know proper etiquette in an art forum such as this.
I look forward to seeing your images.

you just open one of the models you want in you're scene, click export>obj then find another and repeat until you have exported all the models you want in one picture, then create a new file, click import then on the drop down list for filetypes, click "obj" and import all the model you want in the picture, then goto mode>scene then click build>add object then add the first model, move it around and rotate it to you're needs, and click buid>add object then just keep doing this until you have all the objects in the view, then render it.

Those look like great models!  For the alien model, I'd reccomend giving it a lighter texture, as it's hard to make out anything right now except the specular highlights.  Awesome start though, I look forward to more (oh, and you might want to post this in the wip section.)

Edit:
That's disgusting you would stoop to that level.

Oh dear ::)
We have another newb claiming that they have made models created by someone else. Very sad  >:(

Locked for obvious reasons.

Splicerocks, you may be new to all this so it probably doesn't occur to you that

Would mean you actually built the mesh from scratch without downloading someone else's work. Just because you imported it into anim8or and played with making renders and moving it around does not mean you created it. Instead, you simply used someone else's model, and that's all we think of it as.

These models may have been released for people such as yourself to use for personal/non-commercial use only, but you are not allowed to claim ownership of them. Please educate yourself regarding copyright laws and etiquette when it comes to using other people's work.
