rough concept for biomechanisation of The Sokar Funerary Bark relief

a) Rough concept for biomechanisation of The Sokar Funerary Barque relief at the Temple of Rameses III at Medinet Habu. Showing engineers carrying the Space Jockey chair with pilot in the manner of the Sokar Funerary Barque procession. This generally works as Prometheus fan art. However the third engineer from the left has been given head markings that associate him with Master Burg from Moebius' Aedena Cycle comic book stories.

b) The taller figure on the right has a pipe emanating from beneath his chin in the manner that Giger has had a breathing pipe on some of his space jockey type characters, such as in his picture Atom Kinder and indeed the Life Cycle Hieroglyphics, the Space Jockey type victim in the altered version of the painting has a breathing pipe emanating form below the chin. See: detail from Hieroglyphics
c) See also Evolution Of Space Jockey From Egyptian book of the Dead at the Alien Explorations blog

d) The original relief is below.
