Creatures: Goombas

 


 

While MEL (Makeup & Effects Laboratory) was responsible for many aspects of the film, their biggest contribution was undoubtedly the

Goombas. These creatures came to life through concept designs, sculpting and animatronic work, costume design, and some talented

actors. See how it all came together in the pictures below.
