McKinnon & Saunders - Mars Attacks
In 1995 I worked as a Puppet and Prop maker at Mackinnon & Saunders in Manchester, UK. One of the projects I was involved in was constructing animation puppets and life-size Martian characters for the film Mars Attacks as well as various internal and commercial projects.
Some images I found on the internet that shows the stop motion versions of the Mars Attacks puppets.
A full scale Martin and parts of some of his yet to be made friends at the Mackinnon and Saunders workshop in Manchester.

I also came across these images over on Bidnow.com from a May 24, 2017 post. Its good to see when a model can stand the test of time, if you look closely at the legs you can see where the yellow foam is showing through.
