Duckzilla giant inflatable duck for atelier UTO
Digital Inflatables designed and built Duckzilla in 2025, a giant inflatable duck for atelier UTO, taking it from first idea through 3D modelling to the finished inflatable. Half duck, half Godzilla, it has a dark body with orange markings, outstretched arms with claws, a wide-open yellow beak with a pink tongue and large yellow webbed feet.
What is Duckzilla, atelier UTO’s giant inflatable duck?
Duckzilla is a giant inflatable duck crossed with Godzilla, imagined for atelier UTO and built by Digital Inflatables.
Standing on a concrete floor against a grey wall, it spreads its arms, shows its claws and opens its beak wide. Its dark body carries orange and brown patterns; the beak and webbed feet are yellow and the tongue is pink.
The caption sums up the idea: take a duck, add Godzilla, and get a huge, offbeat creature.
How did Digital Inflatables make Duckzilla?
The workshop handled the whole project, from first idea to 3D modelling and then to the finished inflatable character.
The 3D model fixes volumes and proportions before cutting: it is where the silhouette, the position of the arms and the opening of the beak are checked.
On a project like this, the fabric panels are then cut, assembled and given an inflation test.
Lead times for other projects are collected in the guide to custom inflatable lead times.

Request a quoteCan a giant inflatable character be made from just an idea?
Yes. An idea, a sketch or a reference is enough to start: the workshop turns it into a 3D model, then into an inflatable character.
Mascots, characters and giant animals are shown on the giant inflatable character page.
For budgets, the guide to custom inflatable prices gathers priced examples.

Frequently asked questions
Who made the Duckzilla giant duck?
Digital Inflatables, a workshop specialising in custom inflatable structures, made it for atelier UTO in 2025.
Why is the duck called Duckzilla?
Because it crosses a duck with Godzilla, as the post by Digital Inflatables explains.
What are the steps for a custom inflatable character?
For Duckzilla: the first idea, 3D modelling, then the final build.
Can a giant inflatable character have outstretched arms and an open mouth?
Yes: these volumes are drawn in the 3D model, then split into fabric panels, like Duckzilla’s clawed arms and open beak.
