LEADERHEAD: LOTR Orc *animated*

[sween32]

My first of some animated leaderheads I'm making from Lord of The Rings.

I am also currently working on Sauron and Legolas.

DOWNLOAD THE ORC!!!

[Centauri18]

The smile doesn't look evil enough. And he probably ought to have worse teeth. Make him look more fierce and such and you're in business.

[MoonWolf]

Nice work! But add some scars, rings and maybe a bolt or two in the scull.

How are you going to make the other units? As shown in the movie or from you mind (assuming you've read the story)?

(hmmm, making a LOTR-scenario; is there a force raze city option in the editor?)

[Amesjustin]

Can't wait for a LOTR Scenario - had it mind but no time. There is a good one for CTP2 under development here on Apolyton.

Good job, is it a Rolling Stones member model?
Are you using Poser 4, Poser 5, or something else?

[NeOmega]

I think he is plenty ugly

[Centauri18]

I think it's a good start, just needs to get uglier.

[Cyclotron]

Agreed on the ugliness.

If he's an Uruk-hai from Saruman, you could put the white hand on his forehead.

[player1]

Nope, he looks more like regular orc.
(at least compared to LotR movie)

I disagree he has characteristics that only fit the orcs from the LOTR movies as their orcs are completely different from all other ones.

Classical orcs are much broader and have thicker jaw and smaller cranium. They are also much more muscular. LOTR movie orcs look more like dirty hillbillies with "beauty issues".

[Amesjustin]

Kinda looks like Marilyn Manson.....

[BigDork]

Great work, and very ugly. One question are you gonna do a dwarf one? Orcs and elves are good and all but they are nothing compaired to dwarves.

That looks REALLY good! I can't wait for the others, I saw Sauron on your site and he looks incredible too.

[Switch]

Nice Orc. Agreed about ugliness, and also agree that it needs war wounds, chains, etc.

About the other leaders.....I look forward to them, but....why Legolas? He wasn't a leader, only an elf who by circumstance got a lot into the plot. A more logical choice would be Elrond or what's his name, leader of Lothlorien and partner of Galadriel.

In my opinion, for a LotR scenario, you would need the following civs: leader -
Elves: Elrond or What's-his-name of Loth. Maybe have both as separate civs.
Dwarves: whoever the leader was, who I don't think was Gimli (again, I don't think he was the leader, just an unfortunate dwarf)
Orthank: Saruman
Mordor: Sauron
Gondor: Aragorn (he's leader eventually)
Rohan: What's-his-name
(as you can tell, I'm not good with names).
These civs I think would best represent the second war of the ring, showing the most influential civs. (note I didn't mention hobbits....if you think about it, only 4 hobbits actually did anything in the story that mattered to the plot...5 if you include smeagol).

[Horseman 4.5]

King Theoden of Rohan I believe you are looking for.

And it always seems that in Lothlorien, Galadriel, rather than Celeborn is wearing the pants so-to-speak, so I'd make her the leader of choice.

And yeah, as a world power, the Hobbits don't figure (and Smeagol was only identified as Hobbit-like, or at least that was the case in the books.)

As for the Orc, it looks pretty cool. But I agree it could do with some scars and accessories. Also maybe if it was a little greener perhaps. Just a thought.
