Races of Middle Earth - Character - CobraX

---- N A L D U S ----

Ok, here is my shot at this. Not sure if i’ll finish this though as i’ll be concentrating on the VFX challenge.

I’ll create a kind of Golem made out mud, a huge mud mass that has a humanoid form.

Its name will be Naldus, and it should be a Resident of the Dead Marshes created to take away the porr soul that dares venturing in this doomed place. The golem will be of course controlled by the Wrath of Sauron and the Evil powers of Saruman.

It’s exterior appearance will be muddy/wet. And we shall see in some way the fire of Sauron that burns within him in tranparence through its extremities and core.

I’ll start to make a Sketch of him ASAP. Not too sure though how to texture him yet…i’ll have to read Leigh’s tutroials on UV mapping.

Sounds Awesome!

Can’t wait to see some concepts!!!

OK here are some faces of “Naldus” i am just not sure of which one i can take as a reference.

The figure in the bottom right is just a reference for the mass it will have, i am thinking of making it a lot bigger with a smaller head…

And also i am NOT good at making it look like mud…

Between those drawings and the final model there will be a Huuuuuge difference as it’s just to get an idea.

So if i Can get any Comments and Critiques please HELP ME :smiley:

Thanks

Nice idea, cant wait to see how you make the surface wet/runny.

I like the top right head, it looks like its drooping down, sort of mud like…
