Description
Hi there here is my latest work, it was meant to be loosely based on the Gollum creature from LOTR, but I did not want to totally copy it I wanted to try and make mine more human like. I'm not sure if it really worked and if I could go back I would change some things about it, but I'm finished with it now and I'm reasonable happy with it I guess.

Incredible stuff as usual ;>

This is absoloutly awesome. I am speechless, wordless, whatever. A BLOODY MAZING, i have never been jazzed up so much about a head before. This gets my vote, i think everyone who looks at this should vote. Alright enough praise, move on......
dandavis
Got my vote. This is amazing. Did you paint the face map yourself Julian??? I don't think I've ever commented on any of your renders but I sure look at them all.
Hazmat
Hey, that looks like my shifty eyed car mechanic... (yes, he looks like a cross between Gollum and Charles Bronson too!)... Outstanding work Julian. Do you make specular maps as well?
ducksauce
holy crap. the picture on the bottom left looks just like him, aside from the hair and color. this is what maya was meant for.

This is incredible work. If you're not a pro you certainly should be. Very talented, wonderful work!
DanMill
Yeah this is "uberquality". Be happy with it man! Did you use a photo to start the texture?

The only thing I could think of is...maybe lose/rot some teeth(he has a very good dental plan). Your texturing work is fantastic.(Tutorial! Tutorial!) Come ON!...Is there realy anything that needs to be said...this is f*$%ing awsome!

I have never seen anything like this! I think the likeness to gollum is just right, Everybody has their own Interpretation of characters from the book! :)

CptPlanet
Incredible work. You never fail to amaze. It's realistic AND stylistic. I realize you probably get this a lot, but I would love to see a tutorial on some of your techniques.
Svenart

speachless - this is just breathtaking!

This can not be CGI. You just found this creature in a cave, and photographed him. This is too great to be CGI, there is no human being that can maka such an image with a computer and Maya. ;)This is impossably great, this is definitely an 100 on a scale from 1 to 10.
Puppeteer
Wow, awesome work! The subsurface scattering effect is a very nice touch :-)
ryusen

i agree with peterbron and sit here and drool heheh this is god damn awesome. just out of sheer curiosity, what would be the polygon count for the head alone?
Gollumsess
This is absolutely amazing! It's Gollum! 'Cept younger and not as cute ;-). Can't believe this is CG! Just wow!
EugeneTooms
Just to add to what everyone else has said - this is a truly stunning artistic work. One of the best things I've ever seen on these galleries. AMAZING! The skin texturing, lighting and modeling are all exemplary.
Modulok
Sweet work Julian, very fine. Did you paint the texture map? or is that Photo based? the only thing I'm not sure about are his teeth.
rkamil
He looks alive! Outstanding work, J.

megallanic
This is amazing work! This character looks so real and seems to have a real personality. Better character detail and realism than most of the characters created in Hollywood! How long did it take you to do?
