Was Peter Jackson wrong in his design of Gandalf the Grey in Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit?? While I love his version, his vision is not exactly book accurate. Watch me create a full almost 2 foot tall Gandalf the Grey mixed media sculpt designed ONLY with the description by J.R.R. Tolkien in the books. Watch me create the armature, shape his body, design and mould his fabric robes, sculpt his head, staff and hands from polymer clay, add his hair, and "stitch" his pointed blue hat in this full process tutorial video.
