Description
Finally found time to finish this up..
Learnt a lot from doing this, my first full attempt at a digitally painted portrait :)
Giving 3D a break for a while, and honing my 2D techniques.
Inspired by of course, the wondeful Gollum *I lurv! this guy*
If I don't see/speak to you all before x-mas/new year..
I'd just like to wish everyone! a Very Happy Christmas, and a wonderful New Year!!
Hope Santa's nice to you all *hehe*
All the best, Mike

Happpy xmas & new year mike. im glad your back, and fantastic work on the pic the lighting in this pic is great and youve caught his expresion really well, i like the sence of depth youve created on the right it seems to focus your view back on to his eyes. im going to see the little guy & rest on the 19th and cant wait. i hope youve found the insperation you were looking for as i look forward to more of your work. ;o)
very fine art ! you see that finally you don't need 3D rendering to achieve a very realistic and malicious creature !! bravo and happy christmas !
Awsome picture! :D I love the lighting and attention to detail... You've done a wonderful job with this one. :) I'm jealous now! I wish I could handle more detail like that... sniffs
Impressive. Very Impressive. Well Done Indeed.
Whoa!!! I can hear him even more clearly now, the scampering whimpering little git!!!! He's a great character and one which will stay with me all of my days...the Directors vision of him from the book is amazing and your 2D work from the Film Character is even more amazing!. C Yer Mate! Alan
really well done
Outstanding work.

Awesome and outstanding work my friend. Wow you painting skills are awesome and magnificent. Love this very very much. Fantastic image :)
Wonderfully Done!
Oh honey. This is just BEAUTIFUL. I love every pixel.
First time back her at R'osity in a while, and who do I come to first? Mike, of course! I love Gollum...It's so cute in a twisted sort of way. hehe This image is incredible...It looks exactly like Gollum. You're really talented, Mike. Happy holidays to you too! hugs
I say again: EINSTAK and Storkostlegt. Great contrast and highlights. The detail is amazing. Good idea to change to 2D for a while. I too am kind of worn out doing Poser work so Ive turned more to my music. Hope you're doing well my friend. Merry Christmas or "Gledileg Jol" as we say here in the land of ice and snow and have a Storkostlegt New Year!!
OK so I'm a little late!! Had puter troubles! This turned out great! huge hugz and kisses
