Jaz Creations | War Of The Worlds Tripod Build Part 1 @jazcreations | Uploaded April 2017 | Updated October 2024, 1 minute ago.
The Fighting Machine (also known as a Tripod) is one of the fictional machines used by the Martians in H. G. Wells' classic science fiction novel The War of the Worlds. It is a fast-moving, three-legged walker, reported to be 100 feet tall, with multiple whip-like tentacles used for grasping, and two lethal weapons: the heat-ray and a gun-like tube used for discharging canisters of a poisonous chemical black smoke that kills humans and animals. It is the primary machine the Martians use when they invade Earth.
This video I break up the parts and outline various components for the build. Working out the size of the build for the parts I have already sourced. The build begins.
With each project I do I troll the internet, watch movies and research it to death. I save everything I find, I even make some new reference material by combining what I find. I get asked so often for this or that, so I decided to incorporate the “stuff” I get into our website to share with everyone. The link for the reference material is below, it doesn’t always go up with videos so just drop us an email if you need anything particular.
Coming Up Next: In our next video, I continue building the body, using wood screws to join aluminium. Sculpting out other parts and modifying the legs
