SciFi and Fantasy Art The Taming of Sméagol by Peter Xavier Price

'For a moment it appeared to Sam that his master had grown and Gollum had shrunk: a tall stern shadow, a mighty lord who hid his brightness in grey cloud, and at his feet a little whining dog. Yet the two were in some way akin and not alien: they could reach one another's minds. Gollum raised himself and began pawing at Frodo, fawning at his knees. 'Down! down!' said Frodo. 'Now speak your promise!'
'We promises, yes I promise!' said Gollum. 'I will serve the master of the Precious. Good master, good Sméagol, gollum, gollum!' Suddenly he began to weep and bite at his ankle again.'

JRR Tolkien: The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers: Book IV, Chapter 1: The Taming of Sméagol

27 Jul 2003	Happi Froggi	Loading... No, precious, let us go.. nasty hobbistses with their elf made rope, it burns, it hurts up precious, gollum... Er, sorry, but I'm letting my inner Slinker get a hold of me.. sorry about that.No worries .
10 Aug 2003	Lúme	Loading... Uuuuh...Smeagol looks cepy here...that´s good cos he´s to cute in the movie...he is an intresting carakter but also a evil one...some times...but i think he seams too nice in the movie...i think your hobbits are great...they are a littel older(in my opinion) just as they are in the book and this is a great pic from the chapter..it´s bin too long time since i read the two towers...i better do that soon... As usual yoa have a talent for material and backgrounds...a realy grat pic!thumbs upThank you. I really didn't like Gollum's portrayal in the movie. But then again, don't even get me started on PJ's 'rendition' of 'TTT'. Ugh.
27 Sep 2003	Evellon	Loading... Yess yess i remember this part clearly....i absolutely love your idea of gollum...he looks....just right . amazing character that gollum is....wonderful...Glad you like my portrayal of Gollum. I admit, I find him difficult to draw.
12 Oct 2003	Aragornlover52690	Loading... Um. This is great!Sam looks funny!I love it. Gollem looks just as the books describe him, you are awsome!Thanks a lot. I'm glad that you appreciate this version of Gollum -- I may have to try a new scene with this character in it soon.
1 Jan 2004	Daniel Hicks	Loading... This picture is cool! It must take a lot of work to draw Gollum. -Daniel HicksIndeed, and seeing as this is over a year and a half old now, I'd portray him a little differently today.
17 Jan 2004	LOTR fan	Loading... Frodo and Sam look tall............did you made them like that????? good art, love the colors ^-^Yes, the proportions are a little awkward due to the fact that my skills weren't so good at the time of painting this. Still, thanks a lot.
17 Jan 2005	A Elbereth Githoniel	Loading... I loves this depicition of Gollum yes we does don't we my precious. And if anyone says otherwise they're just a stupid fat hobbit. Ach, yessss, we're glad you likes this portrayal, aren't we Precious? Sssssss....
7 Jun 2005	Ruth 'Cookie Monster' Browne	Loading... Great pic of Smeagol! He really caught my attention, and from reading the other comments, i realised why: he looks a whole lot more evil. I think your way of drawing him is more correct - Smeagol is bad, even if he's a victim of the Ring! Frodo and Sam are refreshingly different from the ideas the movies have impressed upon my eyeballs!! ~_~You're right, Gollum is definitely an evil creature, and I guess that shouldn't be forgotten. At the same time, I think he's very pitiable and wretched. Anyway, thanks a lot!
17 Nov 2008	Glovinda	Loading... Frodo looks great! I always knew, that the master of the ring can´t be an ugly, little gnome...;D
