Hobbit 3d Model

[Kristee Summerford]

OmigoshThis is by far the most labor-of-love project and exquisite miniature creation I have even seen, bar none! We saw Hobbiton last November and now I want to build a fake Hobbit door in the side of our hill here in the states. Found your page by accident and now have it bookmarked so my daughter can see it. Congratulations on a job well done!

I had to visit this site for a school project and I was expecting something pretty cheesy and not all that good. This shocked me and is SO amazing! You really went above and beyond! Just curious, how long did it take exactly? If it is in the captions, I probably missed it I was so into the photos! ?

OMG! I cannot believe the DETAIL and how PERFECT you got EVERYTHING! This is absolutely AMAZING! You are an EXTREMELY talented person! I LOVE this! I truly hope it makes its way into some kind of museum, where your talents can be displayed for all to see! Exquisite work!

This is absolutely AMAZING! I am a massive fan of The Hobbit and Lord Of The Rings books and films. I was just wondering what you used to make such realistic grass. I would love to know as I am attempting to make a model like yours! I doubt it will be anywhere near as good but knowing how to do the grass would be a massive help! Thanks

My husband and I are great fans of Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit (books and movies) and often spend a whole day during winter watching the movies from beginning to end so we can relate to your passion.

I cannot find the word that suit for your masterpeace work. I really impressed when I have seen that. I feel that any details that you have made that reflect to how you put you attention through your work. Truly glad to see your work. ?

Hi Emily I did not work to a specific scale but it works out at just smaller than 1/24 most of the furniture had to be modified so that it fit in. I cannot give you room measurements as it now lives in Australia and I did not take measurements before it went sorry!

Such a labor of love! When I had small children I barely had enough brain power to tie my shoelaces. Bravo on doing an incredible project when you had many other things going on. Thank you for sharing your pics with us.

I remember feeling the same way you did when I first saw Bag End in the Fellowship of the Ring ? And I was about that age when I first read the Hobbit, too.

You are extremely talented. I stand in awe.

I have always loved miniatures of houses or smials! That is an amazing work of art. Thank you for sharing the photos of your little piece of Middle-earth! Nai anar caluva tielyanna!(May the sun shine upon your path!)

This would be a most enchanted place to live. If I had one wish it would be to able to spend out my days in such a dwelling. Your labor of love is not without much admiration and appreciation. I applaud your spirit, ingenuity and dedication.

Only thing that bothers me is that in the film from the inside the door on your model should be on the right were the window is. Watch the opening scene up through when gandolf comes to visit, he walks into that tube like hallway on the right, NOT into the middle room.

This is absolutely amazing! I do a post on my blog every week on art and I would love to feature your beautiful work.

Please let me know if I can. I will not do anything without your approval.

Blessings, Joanne

I am and have been a miniaturist, for about 20 years and I never seen anything more beautiful,and Ive seen lots, and made lots, you are so talented in all the things you make especially the yummy food, I have seen the movies and really enjoyed them, but not nearly as much as I love looking at your wonderful creation. Thanks

Maddie, I want to congratulate you on the fantastical work of art you have created of Bag End! I am absolutely mesmerized by the details and wish I could shrink myself and stroll through and touch everything! Thank you so much for sharing! I look forward to seeing more of your amazing work ?

AMAZING! Im a huge hobbit, lord of the rings fan and I own a lot of the Mike Makras sculptures. This is the coolest thing Ive ever seen . What a labor of love. You should be VERY proud of your work. Maybe you should make small versions of individual rooms and sell them. Or scenes from the movies and sell them. Youd make a fortune. Plus your really cute! Are you married? Just thought Id ask.

I work at the Valley View Casino Center (contrary to the name we host sporting events, family shows and concerts) in San Diego, CA. On Thursday, October 13th, Lord of the Rings in Concert: The Fellowship of the Ring will be performed at the Center. The film will be played on an emormous screen in HD set to a live orchestra (the renowned Munich Symphony). As part of this event, we are creating a Middle Earth experience on our concourse. If you live in the San Diego area, I think your work would make for a perfect addition to the concourse experience. If you are interested and live in the SD area (so you can staff the table), send me an e-mail at soc...@valleyviewcasinocenter.com

Thats a very nice piece of work! Maybe someday you wake up and your work is populated by real Hobbits ?

This is an immense work i also did make some modells for my kids train set but by far not so detailled and skilled like yours.

I grew up on an island re-reading Hobbit and LOTR every year, and I used to dream about living in a Hobbit hole. WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE THE AWESOMENESS OF YOUR TALENTS AND ACCOMPLISHMENT HERE!!! You have unbelievable skils, patience, and creativity.

I am one of the biggest LOTR FANS out there in this world on ours. And what you shared with me and the world is true beauty and dedication. You inspired me to create my own kitchen into a hobbit-like kitchen. I appreciate!

thanks,

Hi Maddie , im from Portugal- lisbon . It is an spectacular work ! congratulations by this excellent work!

how do you do thje bricks in circular windows and in fireplace ho was a gitf of dolls house emporium?

This has to be not only one of the Coolest Tolkien based projects I have ever seen, but the absolutely most fantastic home built miniature I have ever seen.

All the lighting, and food, and furnishings.. This is the Bag End I pictured reading The Hobbit as a child. It was a Hobbit Hole and that meant comfort.

I can just see chubby little Bilbo sweeping out the firegrate, or in making pasties in his kitchen.

My wife and I have decided to build an Earth sheltered house and since both of us are Tolkien fans and decided to build it the style of Bag End. In my research online for ideas I came across your Hobbit house project. Beautiful job by the way. I have gotten many good ideas from examining your pictures and wanted to thank you for the awesome job you did in documenting it. You can follow our progress at our blog its still very early in the planning stages but might be something you find interesting.

hey

sorry for some reason it put your comment into spam folder and I only just noticed it. I thought I had put a close-up of the statue?

do you mean a REALLY close up one with nothing else in the shot?

Wonderful! I can relate to your working method. I too am a perfectionist and all my handmade projects take on a life of their own; I may start with a small idea but before I know it I am making an elaborate, detailed whatever and it consumes me until I am done.

I think it is great that you let your imagination wander and guide you to make such a wonderful model. Keep up the good work Maddie!

As to being able to actually match the book, well, Tolkien wanted to give a good impression of how posh Bilbo and his family were, and well, he went just a bit overboard. Still his description does stick in your mind!

Great work! However, if this is supposed to be Bag End the layout is incorrect. It should be laid out sort of like an elongated crescent shape. Check the book the Hobbit Companion for an illustration of Bag Ends Interior layout.

The outside and inside detail work is out of this world! I wish I could make my self small and live in there!

Ever since I was a girl and my big brother bought me The Hobbit, I have desperately wanted to live at Bag End. I think if I ever had the money to build a home, it would resemble Bag End as close as humanly possible.

Very nice. This would be a model of what was in the movie rather than what is described in The Hobbit I expect. In The Hobbit, the plan of the hole is one long central hall that winds about with rooms coming off of it and it sounds like there are lots of rooms. Probably a bit much to model completely and not as clear as what you can see in the movie.

Hi, my name is Evandro Miguel, I live in Brazil and I am studying 3D modeling being self-thought. So in this article, I will explore the Traveling Dwarf Project and how to develop projects without teacher guidance and mentors.

It is important to say that this is my first project of the genre and it was the first time I used Xgen, Arnold, and Mari as production tools. Because of that, some parts will not be in the best way that they should be.

With the references in hand, I can already start the sculpture part. Usually, I start with a sphere and block the formats until I get to what I want. Remember that even being a dwarf, that is, a creature, it is impossible to model him without knowing the human anatomy of the face previously.

I modeled the face, armor, and parts that make up your armor. I also styled the hair volumes, which will be a great help when it comes to creating the hair in Xgen and also to see if they will look interesting.

To save on map quantities, we use one map on each color channel. As such, the red channel has more apparent details and green and blue have more subtle details such as small breaks and an interesting noise for micro details.

We can separate these channels within the renderer as we will see later. However, I exported the red channel to be used in ZBrush so that in ZBrush I could define areas that I wanted to have more details.
