What the gnomes from The Hobbit look like without makeup (13 photos)

Most recently, one of the main film premieres of the outgoing year 2013, a film with a budget of 200 million dollars, “The Hobbit 2: The Desolation of Smaug,” was released.

One of the key roles in the plot is played by a friendly company of gnomes, who arrived at the Lonely Mountain to take away ancient gnomish treasures from the dragon Smaug, who settled under it. 13 brave gnomes, so different and so convincing, whose images turned out to be “convex” and truthful, not only thanks to acting, but also thanks to computer modeling and masterful makeup.

Let's take a look at what the film's actors look like without makeup, which was applied to them for hours to make them look as much like their characters as possible.
