Smaug is a complex and enormous character, twice the size of a jumbo jet and covered in over a million unique scales. Featuring the voice of Benedict Cumberbatch (whose performances also inspired Smaug's motion), we built Smaug layer by layer: from the shape of his skeleton, to the way he moves, to the texture of his skin. The result is an intimate and engaging portrayal of the iconic Tolkien moment where Bilbo confronts the Dragon. See how our artists bought this well known character to life.
