Here is an original ink drawing by Troy Nixey from his Inktober series back in 2015. This was for Day 22, and the prompt was "Movie Monsters!"

Troy chose to draw a "xenomorph" from ALIEN, a 1979 science fiction horror film directed by Ridley Scott and written by Dan O'Bannon.

Based on a story by O'Bannon and Ronald Shusett, it follows the crew of the commercial space tug Nostromo, who, after coming across a mysterious derelict spaceship on an uncharted planetoid, find themselves up against an aggressive and deadly extraterrestrial set loose on the Nostromo.

The film stars Tom Skerritt, Sigourney Weaver, Veronica Cartwright, Harry Dean Stanton, John Hurt, Ian Holm, and Yaphet Kotto. It was produced by Gordon Carroll, David Giler, and Walter Hill through their company Brandywine Productions and was distributed by 20th Century-Fox. It spawned several sequels, novels, video games, and comic books--including the much-lauded ALIENS from James Cameron.

Troy Nixey is a Canadian comic book artist and film director. Nixey has written and illustrated for comic books such as Neil Gaiman's "Only the End of the World Again", Harley Quinn, and The Matrix Comics. After submitting his 2007 short Latchkey's Lament to filmmaker Guillermo del Toro looking for guidance and feedback, Nixey received an offer to direct his first full-length film, Don't Be Afraid of the Dark, a remake of a 1973 ABC made-for-television horror film that originally starred Kim Darby. The 2011 version starred Guy Pearce, Katie Holmes, and Bailee Madison.
