Cave Troll WIP

"They have a Cave Troll." - Boromir in The Fellowship of the Ring. I've made a first pass with the textures in Substance Painter on the Cave Troll. Lately I have been posting a lot of environment art, so I thought it was time to post an update of my character art work. These textures are likely to change, and this was an exploration of what materials and smart materials I could use for areas such as the teeth and tongue. It took me an additional five hours work today to add the chain around it's neck, but it was well worth it. Any self respecting Cave Troll needs a rusty, gnarly looking chain around it's neck. #cavetroll #troll #boromir #frodo #lordoftherings #lotr #lotrart #lotredit #nazgûl #nazgul #nineriders #9riders #hobbit #hobbits #thehobbit #thehobbittrilogy #hobbithouse #hobbithouses #jrt #jrtolkien #tolkien #azog #azogthedefiler #dwarf #dwarves #gandalf #gandalfthegrey #gandalfthewhite #mistymountains #zbrush
