3D model history
Gandalf the Grey is known as the wisest being in Middle-Earth who had the role of the leader of the Fellowship of the Ring, the brotherhood whose mission was to destroy the One Ring, in opposition to the nine Black Riders. The wandering wizard appreciated all life in Middle-Earth; Gandalf had a strong friendship with Bilbo Baggins, and his nephew, Frodo, who later inherited the One Ring and took a mission to destroy it in the fires of Mount Doom. The role of Gandalf can be defined as a prophetic mentor who guides Hobbits in their quest.
Our contributor decided that all movie fans should be able to print this iconic LOTR character and took as a reference the popular depiction of the hero with a travel stick. The facial features of the protagonist are masterfully sculpted and Gandalf looks exactly like in the movie scenes: thin face, fleshy nose, bushy eyebrows, protruding cheekbones, and deep wrinkles together with a long beard and long wavy hair make it easy to recognize the famous wizard. The body of the hero is hidden under a bulky cloak with belts that hold the sword, and the pointy hat adorns the head of Gandalf. Don’t miss this wonderful 3D printing collectible and explore the new STLs — you will be amazed!
