Description
Hey y'all!Happy new year!
Sorry I haven't been around or commenting that much lately.It's been a bit busy here and I have been working on several projects that have been taking up most of my time.But I have been looking at what you guys have been doing and I will definately do my best to catch up as much as possible.
Anyhoo...this is one of the 'things' I've been working on. I got the idea to make my own 'Gollum' while I was watching LOTR, a few weeks ago.I just had taken this shot of my brother-in-law and it seemed to lend itself perfectly to what I wanted to accomplish.( That's who 'Gollum' is here, by the way, my brother-in-law. And yes, he's seen it and he's okay with it, lol.)
The entire thing was done using a single photograph ,( which you can see here: 'original photo' ,because I really think you need to see it to appreciate this. ) No other outside textures or photos were used. LOL, right now I must have at least 20 jpegs saved of each basic step in his transformation, and it would make such a cool animated GIF, I think. Maybe I'll do that one day........hmmm........Yeah, that's all I need, another 'project' when I still haven't even finished the others yet...Sigh...lol. ;^P
Soooooooo anyway, here it is. I hope you like it and as always, your comments and or opinions are most welcomed and appreciated. Hope you're all having a wonderful and happy new year and thanks for dropping in!
See ya!!!!
Always,
Marlene :^ )
PS-Sorry it's so big, but I wanted you guys to be able to see the details.Please click on it to see it at it's true size,etc. I hate to think of it only being seen compressed...ugggggh...lol. Thank you! :^ )

Gollum: me thinks a remarkable resemblance to Yoda, from STAR WARS. Great manipulation and lots of work in this effort. Who is that lovely on the left?

Very interesting work! Super done!*****!
Got here a bit late, so it's all been said. Not sure how long this took you but every minute was worth it. Coming up with ideas is one thing but executing them is something else (I'm quite full of the former & lacking in the latter). 6 stars. Oh, and more, please, OK?
