Thanks for the nice comments about the image, and moreover, thanks for that copyright info - that does clearly state that my image may well be an infringement on their copyright, despite it's unpretentions and 'homage'. I will temporarily remove Gollum until a new original version is finished. The funny thing is - if I replace this photo of Gollum with a hand (digital) painted one, that copies (for the most part) it, I will not be infringing any copyright, and noone will be any the wiser anyway! :) Btw, I have been making a V3 Gollum based on the filmic one, and will have to make some custom morphs to complete a satisfactory character. Ultimately, an exact likeness would not be my goal since that again would infringe copyright.
