The figure has a lot of character and is well done. I like the face and the buttons.The paint complements the figure nicely. We would like to see more.

I am just simply stunned by this

I am having problem getting my roll of clay smoothly over my pice of metal for my tentacles.. and you just come happily along and sculpt this :shock:
I agree with oldman willow. We would like to see more indeed!

Very well done and it has a very [word deleted] feel to it... what makes him even more like a Hobbit in my opinion.

I would consider renaming him Bilbo though... as that is excatly the wat i imagine Bilbo at the start of his tour to the lonely mountain!

I just really like this model. I do love the realism of LotR, but I think with this sculpt you've managed to capture the innocent essence of a hobbit. As others have said, this Frodo reminds me of The Hobbit video game. I also think its ironic that a halfling towers above your other minis :wink: ...no but seriously, a great mini. 8)

I can but applaud you. Simply marvelous sculpting, complemented by equally great painting. Highlights are spot on, and like Bart said, the model radiates originality personal work. :)

Gandalf looks great as well! 8)

...I'm looking forward to future projects. Keep it up!
