Stunning Realistic 3D Portrait of Legolas from Made with Maya

Take a look at this stunning 3D portrait of Legolas from The Lord of the Rings with the likeness of Orlando Bloom created by a talented 3D Artist Moon Bong. The artwork was made with Maya, Substance 3D Painter, and ZBrush.

The artist demonstrates a high level of expertise, recreating the actor's appearance and facial expression while conveying the nature of the character. Moon Bong skillfully created his skin and hair, making them look natural and realistic.

The portrait reflects the elf's bold and thoughtful personality. It depicts him in a battle-ready posture, carrying his quiver and ready for combat. The character's fantasy outfit has distinctly different fabric textures. Moon Bong recreated such elements as the Leaf of Lórien and silver embroidery, making the portrait detailed and authentic.
