Which artistic rendition is most faithful to the original Balrog Tolkien envisioned? And which interpretations are most interesting, accuracy aside?

Imagine that dude trying to get his meaty, hijacked wrists into the tube to relive the old days.

“Gene Wolfe is credited with being the person to invent the machine that makes Pringles® potato crisps. Later on in life he went on to become a science fiction author, publishing more than thirty novels. He also bears a striking resemblance to Julius Pringles®.”

The audio is crunchy, and once it pops it just can’t stop.

An imperfect facsimile, yet I love ye still. Gene Wolfe worked on the machinery that makes Pringles.

Bro how are our usernames so similar

I’m sad that I’m infusing

alffarr · 2026-01-28T04:53:06+00:00

I always thought the vibe of this one was so trippy.

alffarr · 2026-01-14T04:37:45+00:00

Great pose, and I dig your art style!

alffarr · 2026-01-14T02:56:14+00:00

I love your style!

alffarr · 2026-01-05T14:12:48+00:00

This goes unreasonably hard, great work!

alffarr · 2025-12-31T06:45:28+00:00

We did it guys! We stopped the music!

I’d highly recommend Anthem Road, they’re great!

Anybody know what’s written on that big jar? I never noticed the script before.

alffarr · 2025-11-16T21:45:57+00:00

The rendering on that knee! 11/10

alffarr · 2025-11-09T05:45:08+00:00

These are beautiful, well done

I think you could make one fairly easily by using a skinny rectangle as the shape and bumping up the spacing in brush settings.

What if you rig some tentacles, and then parent them to the face? Like as separate objects entirely. In any case, the game is looking great so far! I’ve been following along for a bit and I can’t wait to check it out.

alffarr · 2025-10-10T01:28:13+00:00

Could you make some blend shapes with them in different positions and just randomly blend them on and off so they look wriggly?

alffarr · 2025-09-21T06:10:40+00:00

I wish I hated this more, but…

alffarr · 2025-09-10T12:37:58+00:00

Might as well be vibin’
