File:Ron Cobb Nostromo(Bridge) Book of Alien.jpg

Summary
Images from the collection of scenes Ron Cobb painted under Dan O'Bannon's direction to be "shopped" around with the original script of Alien. Top: his first bridge design, one he affectionately termed “California Slit-Level.” There were to be two large viewing bubbles that would also feature computer readouts. The proposed set was deemed too expensive and only the wing seats survived in the actually built set. Below: a later, more refined bridge, with viewscreen but no windows.
