I had a feeling that a new part was imminent! Once again a fantastic entry, with all those nice little changes you put in to help the story flow and provide some freshness. The facial animation technique you use is very effective, even uncanny. Wonderful how you pay attention to even the more obscure details of Correa's art and find ways to keep them in your recreations. Can't wait to be amazed by what you eventually gift us with next!
Many thanks for your kind comments as usual. I'm glad you notice (and appreciate) some of the details I include. The next instalment will include the mass exodus from London and the Thunderchild sequence. Interesting piece of trivia: It was thought that Wells based his ship on the only battle-ram utilised by the Royal Navy, "HMS Polyphemus". However, that ship had only one funnel, not two as Wells described. A more likely candidate is the "Tordenskjold", an ironclad from the Danish navy. This ship was named after the Danish nobleman Peter Tordenskjold whose nickname was "Thundershield"! That's the vessel I will be modelling.
i hope we see some of the more obscure correa moment like my favorite where it shows a tripod trying to rip off a railroad from the ground and it looks like its really putting its back into it
I love this. I'm thoroughly amused how much I like the tripods. I first saw the in the illustrations from an early edition of the book. I no longer care that they look like the tops of water towers with eyes.
It’s almost disturbing how much of the original story can act as an allegory for ww1. The absurdly fast mechanization of warfare, with men on horseback fighting against steel behemoths crawling over a land choked with poison gas. All that from a book written nearly twenty years prior to the great war
BRAVO ZULU sir! Exceptionally well done! With great anticipation, I look forward to your next installment. Thank you for this faithful rendition of Wells' masterpiece! Please do continue.
Love the story. What's make me that narration the best for me is the fact you can introduce the art of war and such, on the othe rhands other narrations like Jeff Wayne's musical version makes very little approach in the war against the martian and makes us see how the humans fell very quickly to the martians.
I've always had trouble visualizing the events because I am not too familiar with old England. This really helps me a lot. I look forward to the next chapter
This is absolutely fantastic! I've been following this from your first chapter, and I'm hooked! It also makes me want to re-read the book again, and listen to the Jeff Wayne's album.
I’m glad this exists because no movie adaptation has ever captured the entire experience that the book did I’m glad this person is doing work no movie companies could
This reply is for all who are waiting for the next chapter. It is coming soon, or rather two chapters, 7 & 8 are coming soon. Both have been very challenging - in chapter 7 there are 20,000 animated characters in one scene, fleeing through Chipping Barnet to escape London. In chapter 8 we have the Thunder Child. New software used for these scenes - "Embergen" to create fire and explosions! Thank you for your interest in my project.
Yes, thanks. The illustration of the Tripods being disassembled by the Londoners shows a circular hatch in the front, between the eyes and below the rod which sticks out of the head. Another illustration (one of the smaller sketches within the text of the book) shows a circular hatch to one side of the head. My narrative needed a hatch in the front and it fitted better in the body. Who's to say there weren't several hatches. Many thanks for your interest.
I really wish someone would make War of the Worlds Video game. You can play both Survival mode as the humans, and battle mode as the Tripods. And get to choose which model/version of Tripods to play as.
Interesting piece of trivia: It was thought that Wells based his ship on the only battle-ram utilised by the Royal Navy, "HMS Polyphemus". However, that ship had only one funnel, not two as Wells described. A more likely candidate is the "Tordenskjold", an ironclad from the Danish navy. This ship was named after the Danish nobleman Peter Tordenskjold whose nickname was "Thundershield"! That's the vessel I will be modelling. Thanks for your interest.
I love this very much, I see you’ve improved on your Civillian Clothing since the 4th installment and looks very nice, I love to see the Curate done in such a horrifying and insane way. However, I still see that your Soldiers Uniform are in Boer-War style, which is a khaki uniform and a pith helmet, the British Foot Soldier for the late 1800s had a red uniform with white webbing and a picklehaube style black and gold helmet, and the Artilleryman spotted a blue uniform and a blue and red soft cap, with little webbing, only their belt. You can find pictures easily on the internet, I’m not disrespecting your animation here I think you’ve done a great job, but it’s just a small inaccuracy I think a lot of people would make since the Boer War in South Africa was in action around the time the War of the Worlds is set. Again I love your animation and I think you’ve done a great job.
Many thanks for your interest and kind comments. I did research the soldiers' uniforms from the era and decided on the Boer War style uniform as being very recognisable as "Victorian". A bit of artistic license!
Just found you and am delighted. Thank you. This really is amazing! You have captured the key locations as they may have looked at the time and the people too. Your animations are very much in the style of the original illustrated book, yet at the same time offer more detail. I've lived in Weybridge for 50 years so know all the locations including those down the river to London very well (albeit in their 20th and 21st century form) Your representations look very convincing. Do you know the areas well yourself. Did you do research? Thank you so much, I very much look forward to the remaining Chapters.
I hope they cover the Brothers flight from London with his two Lady companions. I have never been able to get a clear picture in my head of how it all looked.
Thanks for your interest. Yes, I am working on that section now (the Thunderchild sequence is finished) This is proving to be an extremely complicated chapter (2 chapters in one as it happens) so I apologise that it is taking so long to get this next episode out there.
By far it has been many years and still so many are intrested of the first ever alien invasion book The war of the worlds is a legacy that shall never be forgotten and lost.
the tripods are not standardised all the Martians individually built thier own tripods after they landed on earth. every tripod has a different likeness to it. alvim correa is the only artist that actually follows the book closer in this regard and shows this. no other adaptation de-standardises the fighting machines.
@@accountreality1988 I respectfully disagree. There is no mention that each machine was specifically different from the next or individualised to their pilots liking. Indeed the Martians do not seem to have any particular form of self expression that we recognise. Wells is vague in his descriptions of all fighting machines, save for the base identifiable features uniform to all. Correas choice to portray them this way was his choice. And granted it’s a great one. A welcome one. And not the only one to do so either. True the vagueness of the tripods descriptions are open enough to put this detail in there if you wish. But if you have specific reference from the text that makes this claim the Martians express individuality in their tech, please do. It would be interesting to read.
Many thanks to you and all those who comment. I am working on Chapter 7, but it is big. It covers the exodus from London, my brother rescuing 2 ladies from ruffians and ultimately the Thunder Child sequence. A lot of models to build, huge crowds and big explosions. I have also been upgrading my computer system so it can cope, and refurbishing my studio. Plus Lightwave 3D has had a long awaited upgrade. It may be a couple of months before I can get the next episode out there. Sorry!
Fantastic work again! Really, the most authentic depiction of Wells' vision yet made. You're leagues ahead of the big studios.
Glad you think so! Thanks for your interest.
Probably the best depiction of alvim correa’s illustration of war of the worlds as a series.
Not hard to be the best when there aren’t really any others out there lmao

UNDERFOOKED PART 7
Your the guy who made the underfooked war of the worlds
whats up reddalek55 are you gonna make another underfooked video ive been waiting so long
Always great to see a new chapter of this! It's not often that the black smoke is depicted with this much detail
Many thanks for your continued interest. K
What a great series. Finally a version that follows the book. This and the Jeff Wayne musical version are the only ones that come close to the story.
And pendragon WOTW 2005. Even if it is awful special effects.
i hope we see some of the more obscure correa moment like my favorite where it shows a tripod trying to rip off a railroad from the ground and it looks like its really putting its back into it
I'll see what I can do. Thanks for your interest.

yeah me too i did also have the book and the fan made ones im a fan of the war of the worlds
ITS A BOOK
This perfectly amazing the fighting machines look beautiful. Keep up the good work Kevin.
A splendid Sunday treat to see yet another installment. Well done, as always.
Glad you enjoyed it

Thanks!
@@kevinmccullen1 I hope you haven't given up. Still looking forward to the next episode.

I just finished watching the entire series so far and I can’t wait for the rest. The silent film style is really interesting to me.
Even better than ever! what a fantastic show encore!
Bravo! Amazing episode. Next to reading the book, this should be the first port of call for anybody exploring HGW - TWOTW.
It’s almost disturbing how much of the original story can act as an allegory for ww1. The absurdly fast mechanization of warfare, with men on horseback fighting against steel behemoths crawling over a land choked with poison gas.
All that from a book written nearly twenty years prior to the great war
You're right, now that you make me think about it, it's impressive how he managed to depict the First World War 20 years earlier.
Extremely well done! The newsreel format works great! Looking forward to the next installments!
Amazing work again! ❤
This is so faithful to the original! Amazing job!
Finally a new chapter thank you I love the parts we’re you use the pictures from the book and make them even better can’t wait for the next one

Wonderful as usual. One of my favorite books. Always disappointed in the film versions. This is the best by far. Thanks
If there is an afterlife, then Alvim Correa is smiling.
As am I.

PS. These gems should be storyboards for the ultimate WOTW film.

I love this series!! Always glad to see the next installment, great work!
Love it Kevin! Bloody brilliant as always!
Hey man, you did a great job with the animation. I really like it so I hope you release more episodes soon 👍👍👍
This is absolutely fantastic! I've been following this from your first chapter, and I'm hooked! It also makes me want to re-read the book again, and listen to the Jeff Wayne's album.
Thanks. I've read the book several times and never tire of it - even studying it in depth for this film.

As a huge WOTW fan, this is the most beautiful work i’ve ever seen on WOTW.
Perfection
The music fits perfectly for the martian fighting machine.
Pls keep this stream of animations coming. I know its been 2 videos since I commented last, but I mean it. Keep it going brother.

This is jolly good show hope you making more
Another great instalment from the Windmill moving picture company
I can't stop laughing at the way they talk, you've earned yourself a subscriber
AMAZING AS ALWAYS!
one detail tho
The correa's hatch was on the back of its hood and was circular
Its seen on the last illustrations
Yes, thanks. The illustration of the Tripods being disassembled by the Londoners shows a circular hatch in the front, between the eyes and below the rod which sticks out of the head. Another illustration (one of the smaller sketches within the text of the book) shows a circular hatch to one side of the head.

That was really good keep up the work man
Thank you so much! I love it!
YES HES BACK
7:10 I never thought you will use these eye-less machines here. These round machines that are following the Black Smoke tripod.
Ayyy!! Thought I was dreaming! Lol!
ONCE MORE A GOOD NEWS AND ITS MORE ONE CHAPTER OF THIS
This is amazing!
Really enjoyed watching this. 👏
8:03 I love the design!
Excellent!
Many thanks!
Chapter 7 is thunder child
no chapter 7 is exodus
W the camera man for doing this for his videos
Hope it's not as long 'til the next one✌️🙏
Briliant.
Love the video wish I could do stuff like this!
me waiting for the next chapter:
i live right next to a city called surrey in bc, canada (the province vancouver is in) and i got so confused when i saw this video
YOOO I ALSO LIVE IN BC CANADA!
@@Logan-tn2nz ok
This is... FANTASTIC!!!!
Now I wonder when the thunderchild fight will be uploaded
In the next episode.
What's the music in the first couple minutes of the video?
Thunderchild scene when?
How long the chapter 7 com we were been waiting for years 😞
he's still working on it
Finally I been watching this before!
After this do Warwick I would love it
I really wish someone would make War of the Worlds Video game. You can play both Survival mode as the humans, and battle mode as the Tripods. And get to choose which model/version of Tripods to play as.
Team green it's making a war of the worlds multiplayer game you can play the demo.
there is. loosely based on the 2005 movie. you can find progress here on youtube
I suspect Wells would be equally impressed & proud of this had he seen it in a 1920s silent cinema...
Will you ever post more?
HES BACK
FINALLY GOT RELEASED IVE BEEN WAITED FOR 4 MONTHS
Can't wait for the thunderchild
Interesting piece of trivia: It was thought that Wells based his ship on the only battle-ram utilised by the Royal Navy, "HMS Polyphemus".

Why do some of the tripods in the black smoke group have round heads instead of the standard pointy head?
That's how they look in the art piece he based the scene on. Different head shaps.
