Hello!
sorry I’m a little late…
but i want to join this contest too, so i decided to model “Saruman The White” from Lord of the Rings…
This is my reference model.

This is my Base mesh.

and this is the progress of my model…
I made the face (but i will detail some areas, like lips)
and the hair, beard , eye brows and eyes are provisory.
And i’ll close the eyes in final pose.

That’s is it
Hope you like it!
- a good start for sure, looking forward to more. Christopher Lee was marvelous in that role
