Very sad to hear this.

For me, his designs for movie Aliens helped elevate that film to even greater heights than it otherwise would have achieved. The atmosphere and environments are to a large extent the reason why the film has had such longevity, and with the single exception of CRT monitors, it could have been made this year.

A very talented man.
 
His work on the V'Ger model was amazing it was 68 feet (21 m) long.

RIP Syd
