Martian Giant Robot CGI Texture Original Reference Model
A texture reference scanning model of the Martian’s giant robot from Tim Burton’s sci-fi comedy Mars Attacks!
This piece was created by Warner Digital Studios for the scene where a Martian-driven robot chased down Richie (Lukas Haas) after crushing his parents' trailer. Made of resin, the design of this robot is derived from “B” sci-fi movies of the 1950s and features fine paint detail to resemble a metal finish. The robot has select articulation to the arms and waist that allow the piece to be slightly poseable. Inside the clear dome is a miniature Martian sitting at the controls. This item was constructed as a scanning model for the visual effects artists tasked with creating the CGI robot that chases Richie. Following the production, this piece was mounted on a display base and gifted to the crew.
The display base is made of black acrylic and has a bronze placard that reads “Mars Attacks! 1996.” Included with the base is a clear acrylic cover.
Dimensions: 41 x 31 x 81 cm (16 ¼” x 12 ¼” x 32”)
