Madame Tussauds, the famous wax museum, is bringing Yoda to life—er, wax—for an upcoming Star Wars exhibit. If you thought it was easy to make a Yoda wax statue, then you are a crazy person. It’s not!
Via New Launches, Madame Tussauds uploaded a promo video to YouTube. And while most of the video is a boring PR hard-sell, there are interesting behind-the-scenes bits, showing a team of artists and a team of paintbrushes.
First, Yoda is sculpted in clay.
From that, a mold is made.
Like so.
Then, there’s painting.
Hair is added, strand by strand.
There’s more painting.
And side-of-the-head pressing.
So much painting.
