"My Preciousssss"; Gollum skin / model for JO

The model's by "Hindy" who did a recent Legolas JO model/skin.

He asked me to skin this little guy (well, 'little' if you use a scaling mod) and here's how it turned out;

Thar ya go.

[EDIT: Haha, you fixed it the same time I posted it. It looks great, but the eyes were a bit rounder and they seemed to catch your attention more. Maybe the texture is a bit blurry, that's the problem. Plus, the fingers shouldn't be splayed out straight and rigid like that.]

uh... methinks its a tad tall for gollum. since he was a hobbit, and he crouches now that he is gollum. that would make him around 3 or 4 feet tall...

You'd need a seperate mod that does model scaling, there are tons out there.

What Emon said.

In fact, I already said it in the opening post (well, 'little' if you use a scaling mod)

It looks fantastic. My only complaint is that the skin could use a little more contrast. It looks kind of faded, especially the eyes. I know there's great detail on that skin, I just can't see it! [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]

I actually think it looks blurry and undetailed. But I could be wrong. Seeing the flats would be nice.

Looks like he crammed them down to fit in that small picture, a ModView shot would be nice.

It's dark enough just not baggy enough.

Okay nevermind. Sometimes his eyes look baggy and sometimes they don't. Maybe it's the difference in light in the movie.

But **** , you put a lot of work into those collages...

The musculature looks wrong on the arms. The shading is too wide. The stomach looks more detailed than the arms/legs. It's the arms/legs that look the most blurry.

Nah. I have a standard template. A few 'cut and pastes' and it's done.

Screenshots are the main reason someone will choose whether or not to download your work. So it's worth the extra effort to present your screenshots in a manner that will attract the most people to download.

It's the most overlooked part of the whole editing process. Marketing. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]
