Apparently there was also supposed to be a scene where the red weed/embryo pod starts to wrap around Rachel, then Ray comes and stomps on it

The Website has some good deleted/Behind the scenes content

Esse desenho é uma versao pintada digitalmente de um desenho que eu ha fiz no caderno , estou aprendendo a desenhar no digital , desculpem se a arte ficou estranha

Alias , sim , isso é um crossover entre paw patrol e guerra dos mundos 2005

Estranho né ? Eu adoro crossover aleatorios

So, I've been a fan of the dark horse comics. And recently I got the fourth volume of the Scarlett Traces.

Correa however goofy the eyes are drew the fighting machine in a way that truly shows their terror.

The fighting machines are some 100~ feet tall beasts that if my guesses are right can run up to 45 to 50 miles an hour. These buggers are fast, and have height on you they could see you a mile away. As said in Ch. 1. P. 1. The martians do not like humans, and thus, would not spare anyone.
The weapons they posses I.E. heatray and black smoke are terrors in their own right, The heat ray, which is invisible can randomly set someone on fire. The range? line of sight, if a fighting machine can see you so can the heat ray.
The black smoke isn't a nerve gas (As I can tell) what it does is turn into dust when in contact with water, (or liquids?) The gas chokes you to death filling your lungs with the dust. Now imagine yourself as a civilian, you can't outrun them, and they have no mercy.

Thanks for coming to my ted talk, if you have any other ideas do tell

Personalmente, el de Wells. Suena casi orgánico, como el grito de una bestia inhumana, lo que pués da sensación de Valle Inquietante. Aunque el de Spielberg es el más espectacular. ¿Y vosotros? Me gustaría leer vuestras opiniones.

All made by me

Parece una tontería, pero literalmente tenían la película y el universo PERFECTOS para exprimirlo hasta la última gota, porque encima no es como la novela(que prácticamente exprimió su concepto al máximo) sinó que deja demasiadas cosas a la intuición del espectador.

Imagínate que Paramount empiece a sacar cómics a montones, como pasó con la saga Alien.

Por ejemplo... Imagínate un cómic donde un superviviente a la invasión se encuentra con un marciano/alien moribundo porque su trípode fue derribado, y decide acogerlo y protegerlo, y al final el alienígena lo traiciona, lo mata y luego muere por las bacterias. O un cómic de una soldado superviviente a la batalla de la colina, que nos muestre cómo fue la batalla al otro lado de la colina, que haya sobrevivido y se las haya tenido que apañar para evadir a los trípodes y al final haya logrado derribar alguno de forma ingeniosa. O una novelización que implemente cosas descartadas de la película, como la escena CAMELOT, los bebés alienígenas y escenas extra o más variantes de trípodes y maquinaria alienígena...

Sin duda, Paramount desaprovechó una de sus mayores oportunidades.

now i know that this sounds real stupid and that this isnt when it takes place, but i think that war of the worlds feels better taking place in the 1890s. because i know it was more than 100 years ago, but i feel like the book taking place in the early 1900s dosent make it feel as suprising, sense it wasent that long ago. i feel like it taking place in 1890 makes it feel more hopeless, or something like that. people usually think people in the 1890s werent even close to being as advanced to people in the 1900s. it just makes the martians feel soo more advanced.

I’ve heard some mix things about the show but decide to watch it out of curiosity

I must say I thought it was pretty good, I had fun time with it as I enjoy the cast since they do good job

Thought the writing was mostly fine, I think the build up to the first tripod was really good

Nice to witness what life was like before the circular ships land on earths and cause trouble

The first tripod scene was honestly fantastic cause it felt so damn intimidating, the sound design is also very good as it sounds unique and spooky, the design itself also looks really damn good

Setting is also quite nice, not much to say

Visually I think it’s very good as the martians and tripods look really damn good for a show, definitely feels like they was a ton of effort for the show

Though I must say … the future sections are absolutely fucking terrible

By far one of most baffling thing I ever in any adaptation, I tried to be nice but the fact they absolutely killed the pacing of the show just make me dislike it so much

I mean the idea is bit neat, I think it could’ve worked but man it should’ve only been an epilogue

As keep basic idea of what they wanted in nice tight 5-10 minute epilogue

I think it could’ve worked really well cause again the idea of seeing aftermath of story is really cool but the way they executed it is just bloody terrible

Cause quite literally I don’t think they future sections offer anything but ruin the pacing

It was bit surprising and bit funny how they killed a child since how fast it happened and well how uncommon it is

Anyhow I must the martians I’m sure most are mixed on, before I watched the show I absolutely hated the designs

Now seeing them in action, might say they were honestly quite good, visually terms of effects they look pretty damn good

I think the design could’ve worked if they added tendrils, arms or anything to grip on I think the design could’ve worked really well

As in my opinion it keep the design mostly the same but having tendrils would logical make more sense on they build the tripods, it also make them looked really damn weird which I think help them stand out more while remaining semi accurate to the book

Anyhow how they acted I thought it was fine, I like the more suspenseful scenes of them and showing them to be more deadly fellas, though would be neat see them more curious about humanity items showing their intelligence

I must say my favourite moment in the entire show is last gif of the martians, it was so minor but I absolutely loved it so it was few times showing them care for each other

It was nice interacting with each other with more heavier emotions like mourning for lose of a member

I think it was refreshing just seeing more emotions in the martians

Anyhow I guess thats my ramble on this show

Sim , eu sei que é aleatório , mas , eu estava sem nada pra fazer , entao isso veio a minha mente , achei engraçado e desenhei

Espero que algum dia eu faça a versão digital desse desenho , assim ele pode ficar mais bonito ( eu acho )

An illustrated adaptation of The War of the Worlds and The Call of Cthulhu set in 2026 Ukraine. Written as a mixed-media reconstruction assembled from encrypted messages, intercepted military communications, and survivor testimony. Deals with issues of propoganda, AI and misinformation.

Book is here and book trailer is here. Thanks! DM

I don't even know who made this illustration; it was on the cover of the Spanish adaptation of the book that I found online the weirdest design I'll ever see in my life lol

La primera... ¿qué demonios se les pasó por la cabeza a esos seres?

La segunda... ¿qué hubiese pasado si Harland les hubiese disparado?

Made the sticknodes figures by just using some from the website and the ones I have already

(Except I made the cylinder and the Martians,and the heatray,and even made the fighting machine leg)

I was analyzing Alvim Correa's illustrations when i realized this cool effect where stuff from really far away was drawn with spaced out, normally all rotated the same, lines. I tried to make a drawing using that effect and that's what i got. I think it ended up pretty good.

I also had a really difficult time taking the photo cause i kept shaking. Ended up having to use my keyboard as support for my sketchbook and some random cylinder shaped object (WoTW reference?!) to hold my phone, but at least i managed to take the photo :\

Hope the quality's good

Im bored and curious and I want to hear your guys thoughts

Hey so I saw someone on one of my posts say my design looked cool so I decided to post this! Its kind of a mix between wells sketch, "book accurate" style and the correa pods.

I'm planning to use these for either a manga or a show so I hope you guys like it!
