War Of The Worlds Tripods Explained: The Correa Tripod is a video by pupbenny about this subject. Henrique Alvim Corrêa was a Brazilian artist who traveled to London in 1902 to present H. G. Wells with illustrations that he'd done for the story of The War Of The Worlds. HG Wells loved the drawings so much that he invited Correa to use them in an upcoming new edition of The War Of The Worlds in French. These pictures and their depiction of the Martian Tripod Fighting Machines have since garnered a cult following with the pictures being used even in indie games by fans of the series.

Correction:
15:12 - Some sources say the work was lost in 1942 when a German boat carrying his work was sunk, while other sources claim they were on a boat that was sunk by a German submarine.

I also noticed how these war of the worlds tripods have inspired many different adaptions of HG Wells The War Of The Worlds, including The War Of The Worlds 1953 film, The Great Martian War 1913-1917, Jeff Wayne's Musical Version Of The War Of The Worlds and even Steven Spielberg's 2005 War Of The Worlds starring Tom Cruise as well as many indie games and art and war of the worlds games have included direct adaptions of this tripod. I found a War Of The Worlds game that's a nice adaption and it certainly makes a nice change from FOX's War Of The Worlds and the BBC's War Of The Worlds that we've gotten lately. The War Of The Worlds 1913 game is a worthwhile, fun and nicely stylised adaption of H G Wells The War Of The Worlds. Also credit goes to PaletteFM for assisting in the colourisation of some of the drawings.
