Well, since the hobbit is coming soon, I've decided to do another great hobbit contest. Rules will most likely be close to the last if not the same. I will be posting official rules and such shortly in the old group, so look out for that. I just wanted you guys all to know beforehand so there is more time for other people to join. Entries can be from any part of the hobbit, and you can begin building now. Like I said, the due date and such will be posted shortly. Here is a link to the group:

My main goal is to have more participation than in the last one, so spread the word!

This should be fun! A word of advice though; I recommend waiting until the M.O. is over so you'll have more members and such:) Many people's time is taken right now due to that.

Quoting A.N.C Hunt

Don't forget the M.I.T's aswell

Quoting Michael Kringe
I'll help as much as I can! Great idea to host another Great HOBBIT contest, Ben! And since the MELO project doesn't seem to work this year, it is a really good time for a bigger contest. Can't wait!

Have you seen my latest comment in the group?

Quoting Ben King
I completely forgot about MO's and MIT's! I'll deffinteley wait then.

Quoting Justin M

We all forget things sometimes;)

Quoting Ben King
Hehe, so true. I forgot about the MO's until round one was halfway through, which is the main cause of me not entering :P

Quoting Justin M

Whoops:P

Quoting Ben King
Yeah, that was a big whoops :P

Here's my opinion on it, but you're welcome to take it or leave it. :) How about waiting until January or so for the next Hobbit contest? By then, the movie will be out, and the first wave of official Hobbit sets will be out, too! I realize some of you prefer to base your creations off of Tolkien's books rather than the movies, but I personally enjoy getting inspiration from as many sources as possible. And with the official sets coming out, there will be lots of cool new beards for the dwarves! Waiting until after Christmas might not be too bad an idea, either... ;)

Quoting Mark Murphy
I agree with Kenton, maybe you should wait until January. Or even later since the MELO will be happening.
