Many of the characters depicted in the Book Cards had gone through various stages of conceptual design at Weta for the films during pre-production; in some cases such as for Radagast the Brown the character had gone so far as to have an actor cast before ultimately getting cut. Daniel Falconer, | Many of the characters depicted in the Book Cards had gone through various stages of conceptual design at Weta for the films during pre-production; in some cases such as for Radagast the Brown the character had gone so far as to have an actor cast before ultimately getting cut. Daniel Falconer,.. at Weta, gathered up these concepts and spearheaded the creation of more ideas for characters which were cut far earlier in the process, such as the infamous Tom Bombadil. | ||
Weta designers then worked on reusing or reconfiguring existing props and costumes from the films to match the new concepts. For example: Elladan/Elrohir's hair reused Arwen's wig, Tom Bombadil's hat was a reworked Hobbit hat (and his coat was an old rejected Gandalf costume), and Erkenbrand's armor was Theodred's. Weta designers were then cast for each character (including John Harding, the original casting for Radagast), and went through the same makeup and prosthetic processes used in the films. | Weta designers then worked on reusing or reconfiguring existing props and costumes from the films to match the new concepts.
