Thanks guys user added image

Mike,
I was planning on keeping him in his original bit of rags around the waist and have him holding a pair of num chuckers? also incorporating a background from the movie. If you feel it would be more in the spirit of the challenge to give him robes though, I can allways go with those bottoms he wears in the movie.

Thanks again,

Chris

Well, it would be my personal preference that he look a bit more different from the movie than just a prop change.

Yeah, I think the yellow jumpsuit with a bandanna would be cool. user added image

Maybe all ripped up and dirty to "Gollum-ize" it.

Sarted on the suit, needs plenty of work yet. Working with cloth and it's taking some time. Textures only basic at the moment.

Body maybe a little too big for the head, or it could be the camera angle??. Suite is going to look GREAT!

Thanks everyone user added image

The suit is'nt hugging his body properly yet, hence it makes his body look much bigger than it is. Hope to correct that tonight.

Thanks again,

Chris

Gollum isn't that tall either, although, he is crawling alot.

I think he was something similar to a hobbit before he got deformed.

Shame to loos so much of his detailed body with those clothes.

Great job still, love it user added image

Cheers GreyFox,

you are right, he was like a hobbit once upon a time user added image

Clothes aren't set yet, I might rip them up a bit like mike suggested so that the character and body still comes through.

I'm working on an art test for a company interested in hiring me, and it's a huge job/test, going to take a good few days to complete. So no updates for a while again, but hope to come back to it next week.

Thanks for all the help everyone, it was gollum here that got them interested user added image
