World famous waxwork tourist attraction Madame Tussauds has revealed the process of creating their new Star Wars experience, in a behind-the-scenes video. Over 180 sculptors, hair artists and colorists have been working on the exhibit for 12 months and principal sculptor Stephen Mansfield explains they had a helping hand from an expert source; “we had a team go over to the Skywalker ranch, so we were able to take photographs and measurements of the real thing.” Madame Tussauds Star Wars experience is open now and consists of 11 sets and 16 new characters.
