[Art] Pipe Cleaner FTL Aliens

So, I have this blog where I make things from all kinds of sources out of pipe cleaners. Given that I've now spent about 20 hours playing FTL, and how the 8-bit style graphics of the game leave a lot open to interpretation, I figured I'd try my hand at creating each of the species in the game. I'm pretty happy with how most of them turned out (though I came up with a much better rockman design the next day...d'oh!)

P.S. Is there any easy way to resize images? I'd love to post the closeups of some of these, but right now they're too big for a forum post.

Those are super cool. I especially like your interpretation of the engi.

Anyone else looking at this, make sure to actually go to the OP site: http://itcamefromthecraftsection.tumblr.com/ Those high quality photos are definitely worth it.

Sorry our forum has troubles with images :(

Thanks! Matthew, it's awesome that the devs are so involved with the community. Also, thanks for the sweet game!

Here's the other rockman I made...I think this one fits the game much better:

Cool. He's definitely more solid looking.
