The Original Tusken Raider Mask From Star Wars: Episode IV!
Рет қаралды 217,181
Жыл бұрынIn the final video from our visit to Propstore's UK headquarters, Adam sits down with Propstore founder and CEO Stephen Lane in his office to examine two of his most prized pieces of filmmaking history. The first is an original Tusken Raider mask from Star Wars--screen matched as the very first one we see on screen that Luke encounters at the beginning of the film! Adam and Stephen also examine an art department maquette of the Space Jockey from Ridley Scott's Alien, screen matched from behind-the-scenes photos as a sculpture worked on by H.R. Giger!

The best way to do this is just to scan it. There are more and more 3d scanners that are affordable/cheap. But I’m not sure if they’re accurate enough yet. However for this, that’s how I would approach it since you simply would not have the ability to go back and fourth measuring multiple times. That and maybe a couple of reference measurements with a decent digital caliper

I mean they have a full size replica of the Millenium Falcon. You can go inside, and stand next to the chess table, and walk down the hall to the cockpit. And of course pretend to fly it. Another massive room you walk in to, and it's filled with stormtroopers. The galaxy is behind them in a giant docking area, with tie fighters and destroyers flying by.

The coloring of the leather on the mask is due to the presence of moisture in the air and leather and the aluminium. Metals often have that effect on leather. Sometimes it's because of the way the leather was tanned and sometimes it's a reaction to something else briefly coming into contact. Most of the time it is permanent. I've had it happen to several of my own projects.

Only one leaves with the loser having the cranium caved in with the awaiting Banthas outside to take the Raider back to the Tatooine desert or nearest sand box provided by local city/county parks and recreation. "The mask, it's not hiding you: IT ALLOWS YOU TO BE YOUR MOST AUTHENTIC YOU" ...Tuskin Raider a.k.a sand person 1979.

@rubeniscool Жыл бұрын
you kind of have to remember that Star Wars also started during a time when film collectibles weren't that big of a deal.. the culture just wasn't really there. Same with merchandising. So most films of that era and earlier would wrap and then most props just either thrown away to make space or maybe given as gifts and souvenirs. After all, the prop isn't needed anymore. So most props that do survive from way back when tend to only exist because luckily some crew member thought it was kinda cool or someone forgot to throw it out or someone found it in the trash etc Originally the most sought after "film memorabilia" were autographs or film posters.
