This ‘Alien’ Punch Fountain is the Coolest Party Accessory Ever
In space, no one can hear you PARTY.
It must be awesome to have the ability to build cool things, because the sky truly is the limit – I wouldn’t know, as I can barely build a pizza. Many fans over the years have sculpted their own Xenomorph busts and even life-size statues, but I’m pretty sure there’s only one Alien Punch Fountain in existence.
Yes. You read correctly. Alien. Punch. Fountain.
The craftsmen over on YouTube channel NEATOCO just uploaded the video of this particular build, which is out of this world awesome. They hand sculpted a Xenomorph from the waist up and then inserted a tube into it, allowing them to literally use the monster as a dispenser for the beverage of their choosing. They went with green Hawaiian Punch, which is perfect since Xenomorphs, well, they bleed green.

In the grim darkness of the far future there is only war, but it was a cheerful illustrator from England who helped to define the terrifying war-torn imagery that inspired what we now know as Grimdark (a hybrid genre combining horror with sci-fi/fantasy).
Unfortunately for fans of Warhammer 40,000, Trench Crusade and countless other sources of Grimdark thrills, veteran artist John Blanche passed away this week after struggling with health issues for the past few years.
While the artist retired back in 2023, he leaves us with an enormous legacy of iconic artwork that continues to inspire gamers and storytellers around the world to this very day.
The news is especially gloomy as it was only last year that Daniel Lowman and Napoleon Dynamite himself Jon Heder released The Grim & the Dark: The Search for John Blanche, a documentary following Heder’s exploration of the Grimdark genre culminating in a heartwarming encounter with Blanche in his own home.
Below is one of my favorite pieces by Blanche, his highly influential depiction of Warhammer 40k’s God-Emperor of Mankind on his Golden Throne.
We send our deepest condolences to John Blanche’s family, friends, and fans.
