Lowpoly Cavetroll (2021)

Since I am a huge fan of the Peter Jackson Lord of the Rings trilogy and I loved playing the “Battle for Middle-Earth” games back in the days, I tried to create my own version of game ready lowpoly cave troll from the Moria sequence at Balin’s tomb. I gave it basic morphtargets for breathing and facial expressions and some weapons that were also featured in the movie and the games.
Modeled in Cinema 4D, sculpted in Zbrush, retopology in 3D Coat, Textured in Substance Painter, Animated in c4d

The lowpoly cave troll as it can be seen in Moria sequence in “The Fellowship of the Ring” and the “Battle for Middle-Earth” games.
