Digitally sculpted by Gary Hunt: "Smaug, being the ultimate dragon, is always great to revisit. This time sculpting him with wings outstretched, I tried capturing his might and power - as many of my previous sculpts had them folded, with a focus on his elegance.
The design team on The Hobbit did a fantastic job of creating such a multifaceted character, so it's always a pleasure to explore this great dragon once more."

This is stunning. Any guesses as to a sales price?

[Mister H]

Fantastic!

[Yojimbo]

Oh boy I?ve been waiting to add a good dragon to my collection!




Looks great so far.

Why not 1/4 though?

Looks good, sold my old Smaug a while back and will probably order this.

Seems roughly the same dimensions as their Lara Croft statue. I still don't have any LOTR/hobbit statues, but that's OK.

Maybe the price will be around $1,500? But oh yeah it's 2022, so inflation and all that.

Great sculpt. A bit grandiose for my Tolkien display though.

I was also going to guess around that price area, though as you say Lara was priced before the "letter".

Wow.

Looks great, but I am very sceptical for the wing-body joins. This issue definitely stop me from PO it although this could mean loosing the chance of getting it (really don’t think so)
