This is brilliant! The idea behind this picture is fabulous and you did a great job creating it as a visual picture. The chemistry between the Predator and the Alien are fabulous and really give this picture a nice touch. The colors, the depth of the shades... Brilliant!

I have always loved both characters and even better still to have them both in a surreal cival competition the way you did it is awesome! You did an outstanding job on the detail as well.
