Gollum / Sméagol Mask Lord of the Rings / LOTR

💍 "My precious!" – Highly Detailed Gollum / Sméagol Mask (Lord of the Rings)

Bring the most iconic character from Middle-earth directly to your print bed! This Gollum mask was designed with a special focus on anatomical details and Sméagol's tormented facial expression. Perfect for cosplay, Halloween, or as an impressive collectible for your "Lord of the Rings" shelf.

✨ Model Highlights:

• Realistic Texture: Every wrinkle and pore has been detailed to capture the aged, gaunt look from the films.
• Detailed Teeth: The characteristic, uneven teeth are firmly integrated into the design, creating a creepy effect.
• Optimized for Proportions: The mask is scaled to fit an average adult (please check individually in the slicer).
• Large Ears: The distinctive, pointed ears are faithfully recreated.

🛠️ Print Recommendations:

• Material: I recommend PETG for display purposes or TPU if you prefer a more flexible mask for wearing.
• Support: Since the model has an organic shape, Tree-Supports are highly recommended, especially for the nose, chin, and ears.
• Wall Thickness: At least 3 wall loops for the necessary stability.
• Infill: 10-15% (Gyroid for uniform stability).
• Scaling: Measure your head circumference and scale the model up or down by 5-10% if necessary.

🎨 Post-processing Tips:

To achieve the look from the preview images:

1. Primer: Use a light, skin-toned or gray primer.
2. Shading: Use a dark "wash" (diluted acrylic paint) to highlight the deep wrinkles.
3. Details: Lightly shade the eye sockets violet/dark and paint the teeth a dirty yellow/beige.
4. Hair: For the ultimate finish, you can glue a few strands of synthetic hair or wool to the top of the head.
