![]() They also have very disgusting manners.ĭuring the wars of Beleriand, Gothmog, the Lord of Balrogs, had a bodyguard of trolls. They seem to be fond of meat, and will eat almost any animal or being they come across. ![]() There is reference that sunlight will return them to the stone they were made from in The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. However, they could be based on another race of Middle-earth, as neither Morgoth nor Sauron had access to the Secret Fire, and therefore could not create things, only alter that which already existed. ![]() Their hide was as thick as stone and nigh-impervious to physical attacks. It is stated that they were created by Melkor, although it's not clear exactly how. The Ent Treebeard says that trolls were "made in mockery" of Ents, as Orcs were of Elves, though not necessarily from Entish stock. Some were described as being able to speak, while others appear to be as irrational as animals. The major weakness of at least some trolls was that they turned to stone in sunlight. Trolls were strong and vicious, but generally dim-witted. As a result of the One Ring being destroyed, most of the trolls present at the battle were killed, and the others are known to have fled. In the subsequent Battle of the Black Gate, the hobbit Peregrin Took killed a large Olog-hai troll with his barrow-blade. Sauron used Olog-hai in the Siege of Gondor and Battle of the Pelennor Fields. As things seemed perilous, however, the trolls fled (although this was due to the approach of the Balrog, Durin's Bane). Boromir's sword recoiled off the scaled hide of one troll. Rendition of an armored Mountain Troll for The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the Kingĭuring the War of the Ring, Frodo and the Fellowship encountered Cave-trolls alongside various Orcs within Moria. They even had normal names: Tom, Bert, and William (Bill) Huggins (the only one with a given surname). While threatening, the trolls in The Hobbit serve as a comic element. They enjoyed eating anything they could get their hands on. While most trolls could not bear exposure to sunlight without turning to stone, the Olog-hai apparently could (to the same extent as Orcs) this attribute was mentioned in The Return of the King as making them particularly dangerous.Ī mountain troll at the Black Gate, used for opening the gateĭuring Bilbo's quest to the Lonely Mountain, trolls were known to speak with thick Cockney accents, specifically three Hill-trolls who had dwelt on the Ettenmoors and moved down to the Trollshaws . They turned to stone when exposed to sunlight, for stone, as told in The Hobbit, is what trolls were originally made of. He created the Olog-hai, which were smarter than earlier breeds of trolls. In the Second and Third Age, trolls were among Sauron's most dangerous warriors. Many trolls died in the War of Wrath, but some survived and joined the forces of Sauron, the greatest surviving servant of Melkor. They were very strong, but turned into stone in sunlight. I went online to thoroughly research the possibilities in ZBrush.Melkor created trolls before the First Age. I learned alot of 3D skills and "stepped up my game" to make it the best piece of art that I can make. With this sculpture I really wanted to take my time making it as good as I possible can and thus I spent 2 months working on this creature. Next step was drawing a few sketches on paper and build up an idea for the sculpting design in Zbrush. ![]() I decided that I wanted to create a man hating Ent seeking revenge for the humans destruction of nature. Sooo the first thing I had to do was researching on Ents and how I should make them (And their physical appearance and dimensions). I sculpted and painted everything inside the 3D program Zbrush. The creation of this Ent (Tree creature) came alive after I got inspired by the Ents in Lord of the Rings and because I needed improving on my 3D skills.

I am a 3D Artist working with Zbrush(3D Sculpting program).
