Thank you!
I started with a mockup of the upper legs. I'd say it's a success. Some minor changes, but the general idea works.

EDIT:
I also started on the pauldrons. Unfortunately I don't have enough worbla to finish them off, but the general shape is already there. And it makes me very happy. They will be raised a bit, so they look bigger.

Re: The Hobbit - Smaug the magnificent [Human form]
I did a small update on the head. I started with spikes/ridges. I'm still wondering how I will make the horns. I think I'll go for a hollow design to keep it as lightweight as possible. And detatchable. The horn in the middle, and the four horns on the side will be detachables.
I fixed the nosthril, gave him a frown/snarl, and 'fused' the spikes with the skin.
In the meanwhile, I got my boots which will be the base for the lower legs. I found out Smaug has 5 toes. I'll take some artistic liberties with that now. I either go for 3 toes front, 1 toe back, 4 toes front and 1 toe raised. I am not entirely certain. I am going to puzzle about this.

I've collected a few horn tutorials. I haven't tried any of them personally yet, but they may be of some help to you!

Re: The Hobbit - Smaug the magnificent [Human form]
There's a mistake in the head, but fixing it would be very hard I think. It would involve removing the clay, try to heat it into the right shape after cutting things open. But once cut, I can't just put it back together. So I'm kind of thinking just to leave it like this. It won't be entirely screen accurate anyway. And I can do what I want more or less. But I did notice, that once the horns are on, it suddenly becomes less of an issue. Pics of the horns will follow later today, as I'm working on those (priming)
