HMC 24 - Weta Workshop Challenge - Gollum

#1

Hello all!

I´m modeling Gollum:

My intention is to recreate this sculpture in 3D.

I hope it´s fine to do so. If not, please let me know!

Later!

I’m so in for this one :smiley: Have fun!

Cheers~

thanks menthol! Fun is the most important thing, always! :]

Here comes an update. Started with my basic basemesh and I´m still getting the shapes and proportions right. I won´t turn off the symmetry until I model hands and feet. From there, it´s where the fun starts. lol

I´m doing it just like the sculpture… Since it´s just the beginning, I haven´t posed him or turned symmetry off yet.

Here´s a small update:

Here´s an update:

Great work, keep going lookin forward

#12

great model, great progress.

though i think something’s wrong with the eyes.

And just on a side note: We aren’t really alloud to use any existing base model. This to ensure everybody starts from zero. I think the base mesh gave you are really big head start though.
