Weta does n’t just create props and VFX for the moving picture — they also make awing collectibles . include this beauty , which was the hottest item at New York Comic Con . Behold the official tear of Smaug from The Hobbit , made by the same artists and technician who work on the films .

The Smaug bout sold out at NYCC in a twinkling , butit ’s also usable for pre - guild at Weta Workshop . The above TV show pretty much every slant and vantage point of this proud creature , which is altogether screen - exact and lovely .

allot to Weta ’s Mike Gonzales , the bust was “ a compounding of the digital model from the pic being designed and impersonate by Andrew Baker , and our physical sculptor Sam Gao performing detail body of work to create a mountable bust . ” This is passably similar to the cognitive operation they utilise to create physical maquettes for the film , except that it was prepared for manufacture .

Weta is creating small batches , but they ’re going to keep the product line of work open “ to check that fan could get their hand on these big beauties down the road , ” says Gonzales .
