컨셉안 반지의 제왕: 힘의 반지 Rings of Power (2022)

아다르 Adar

This is an unused rough i did thinking of Adar. I had started it then the gig was over or I got the ref for the actor. One of the two. It was a while ago.

Prepping for this character I wasn’t quite sure what to do with him. I drew these in between as I worked on the Boar/Wolves.. trying to get an idea for him.. Adar.. so many good orc characters .. a tough one.. ill post the second hit after i got more story for him, next.

Adar .. found out who the actor was and now had a better idea what the character should be.

Adar.. first orc. still very much an elf but an orc.. all roughs.

A couple more of Adar.. These are quick studies using the actor.. to see what we could actually get away with.

와르그 Wargs

Some thumbnails and then the design for the wolves/warthog beasts.. i wanted them to be prehistoric looking warthogs/ thylacines.. it passed through the committee somehow.. see these in Rings of power.. I have more roughs I did but stepping in slowly..this was a very quick little job for me.. I wasn’t on it very long.. so i just did thumbnails for everything I was asked for..

Heres a single shot of the Boar Head from Rings of Power. This is a combination of a prehistoric entelodont/ “hell pig” and a thylacine.. both had a really wide gape almost unnatural.. but we have video footage at least of a thylacine yawning ..

Some ideas for you know who for Rings of Power.. this character was done right already so it was more of just screwing around and trying to find something new but not different.. after a talk with my FX lead we decided and i went more like a Frazetta monster.. these are pretty loose.. i didn’t get much time..

I really liked the way they showed him off in Fellowship. This is more of a straight take on this. Less skeletal and more simian.. i had one mandate which i liked but would’ve liked to have experimented with this character in the abstract..
