The Ents are called “the Shepherds of the Trees" Almost nothing is known of the early history of the Ents. After the Dwarves were put to sleep by Eru to await the coming of the Elves, Aulë told his wife Yavanna, "the lover of all things that grow in the earth," of the Dwarves. She replied, "They will delve in the earth, and the things that grow and live upon the earth they will not heed. Many a tree shall feel the bite of their iron without pity." She went to Manwë and appealed to him to protect the trees, and they realized that Ents, too, were part of the Song of Creation. Yavanna then warned Aulë, "Now let thy children beware! For there shall walk a power in the forests whose wrath they will arouse at their peril." Theres no school like pre-school!!! Went a little adolesent on this one, using paper mache, tin foil, clay and some Legos. The fingers have full articulation
drilled holes in hands for finger. inserted two "u" shaped twisty tie wires and wrapped strips of duct tape as finger knuckles. Later dipped hands in latex.
Shout out to ENulmerfigs from whom I got the tin foil idea from, which will later be covered with paper mache ( 1 part flour to 1 part water and paper towels )
Hey, Edgy 3 ! HUDGE CONGRATS on this amazing Ent !!! Great, great work ! The whole method of building it up around a endoskeleton...absolutely impressive !
