Man Makes Stunning LOTR Gimli Pipe

SVpipesdesign does just what its name implies. They carve, from wood, classic, stunning-looking, perfect pop culture pieces into pipes. Their work is amazing. But in this case, it was a recreation of Gimli from the Lord of the Rings trilogy that was the muse and subject, and my God, by the time he is done you would swear you are looking Gimli IN THE EYES (and smoking from his hollowed out skull but the less you think about that, the better).

The man’s work starts below, where you can see the whole process, step by step.

You won’t believe what this turns into.

Pretty impressive so far, and still just the start.

You can practically FEEL the texture from that beard and hair.

” AND MY CHISEL!”

Real Dwarf-heads smoke when they think so this is apropos. 

We all know Gimli is not Gimli without his trusty axe.

Here it is from start to finish. Nothing short of remarkable and true art on display.

We all bow down before you, sir. Thy work is exceptional.
