I got this nice idea for an image and I was wondering if anyone has made a Gollum character (preferably for free) and if yes, where can I find it? (Gollum being the little dude in the Lord of the Rings, obviously). It doesn't have to be Gollum, actually, as long as it looks somewhat similar :)

Zygote/Daz3D sells something called a "creeper", but I haven't seen anything similar for free.

The Zygote Gremlin might be closer to Gollum than the Creeper. Someone was making a lot of Tolkien figures back in the first half of 2001, but I don't remember who. I think both JSchoen (sp?) and GhostOfMacbeth have been toying with them, and SOMEONE did a gollum, but I just can't remember - and he was never available for download that I know of. Still - I think he was a morphed Gremlin.

heyas; that goblin-hunter guy... whatshisname? thats in the store here, he might do. again, not free. :) i guess it kinda depends on what you think gollum looks like. there's the green froggy big-eyed gollum guy from the hobbit movie, the grey skinny guy from the lord of the rings movies.... um, i expect the new lord of the rings movies has a gollum (i meant the animated ones, above).... then there's the original from the books.... :) grab a hobbit character and skinny-ize it!!

{grab a hobbit character and skinny-ize it!!} And replace the big, hairy heet with bigger webbed ones...

Hey there ... I haven't done a Gollum yet. Jschoen did but he wasn't released ... Have other characters but no Gollum. The closest I have seen for free would be impy with different head morphs. he is in the freestuff ...

Hey, thanks a lot for all the help. I'll take a look at the freestuff section. I guess it all depends on how I see Gollum myself, but the Zygote creeper isn't really what I'm looking for. Maybe I should just try some free character with tons of morphs :) Anyway, I really appreciate your help :))

Ghost, I actually did a Gollum. Well a stab at the character anyway. It still needs a lot of work. But was all done with figure scaling and morphs for the P4 male. And of course some fantastic textures hehe. James
