![[Smaug the Golden!] Hello everyone, I have been gone from here for a while, if your wondering why, I was opening my own LOTR themed store, a dream of mine, and trying to get it off the ground. My now main income is customizing, which is really an awesome job. So today I bring you a dream project of mine Smaug! the golden! From the Hobbit. Alot of work went into this guy, but I wanted him to catch peoples eye, as to attract buisness for my store. So far hes been doing fine. Well, now to the description. Several coats of a custom blend red, and bring out detail. Not sure if you can see or not in the pics, but there are about 4 different tones of red, yellow and orange in his nose. The scales on the front of his body are many different shades of yellow, red and orange to create an "airbrushed" look to it.Notice that in most areas, The mouth also has many shades of colors, red on the inside around and above the tounge, red coated in orange on the gums, and yellow hghlights on the top of mouth and to](userimages/customs/49500/49096-1.jpg) Smaug the Golden! | ![[Prologue Numenorean Infantryman] Hey everyone!! when I first started customizing back about 7 or 8 years ago, this was the character that sparked my desire. I was a LOTR collector and was always disappointed that Toy Biz didn't release an official version of this guy. At first, my skill level wasn't at a place where I felt I could it justice. Then, time went by, sold my LOTR collection and kind of lost the spark for LOTR customs. I finally got to a point where I felt my skill level was there and it dawned on me... the desire to make this guy rekindled. anyways, it's a couple years old now, but I figured I'd post it here.
Recipe:
Head: LOTR Eomer
Body: LOTR Boromir
Lower legs: LOTR Gondorian Swordsman
Arms (mid bicep to wrist): SOTA Charmed Leo
cape: LOTR Boromir
Shield: Narnia King Miraz shield.. w/ some sculpt
sword: LOTR Gondorian Swordsman
Helmet" scratchbuild on top of LOTR King Elendil's
the rest is tons of LOTR clothing cut, chopped, sliced, spliced, etc.. and sculpt

He started as a Uruk Hai Berserker, with a resculpted face, and ears. The glove on the right arm was completely sculpted, as was the waist armor and belts. The mace was made out of a old paint brush, with retooled toothpicks. He also has an interchangeable arm, so that he could have both looks, as in the movie. Unfortunately, you canot really see the other arm that well in the pictures. Big thanks to Barefootabe on this one, as he described the character to me and all the details before I had seen the film. Then a complete repaint. Thanks for looking, and God bless!](userimages/customs/46500/46157-1.jpg) Azog the Defiler |

I used foam covering everything with acrylic mass.
Paint was made as follows: first of all painted black and then used the technique drybrushing over black, with three different shades of gray. All paints were acrylic.
The floor was made with sand glued.

![[Fell Beast] Hi! Here is my most challenging custom, I was thinking of what I could use to make a custom fell beast since the real one is way too expensive, I made him from a lot of different parts, part of the torso is from a cheap plastic horse hollowed out and then drilled the other part of the torso is from an old alien figure then covered in black leather. The legs are from some transformer,the tail is from a rubber snake. The neck is from a AVP figure but it was perfect beacause it was articulated, I made the wings from foam aand a wooden frame then covered in felt and leather "he has a 3 and a half foot wingspan". Then a complete paint job, in total it was the most time consuming custom I have ever done.

I was looking at pictures of the balrog last weekend, and decided I needed to change mine to look more movie accurate so here he is. I started by just painting the entire figure black "including the wings" then I added the tail which is from another hades figure then I attached his fire mane which is many different pieces from marvel and star wars characters I then did a 4 HOUR paint job on the face, because of a cat that kept trying to ruin my custom then I made his sword made from a knife and then added a lot of fire pieces to. I then painted his body by first giving him a wash and then another time consuming paintjob, the whip took a long time as well. Thanks for looking and I appreciate all comments!](userimages/customs/29000/28625-1.jpg) Balrog V2 |
