Quoting MCLegoboy !
Thanks for entering in the contest. I'll be expressing opinions while scoring, so let's give you the scores. Originality: 3/5 Well, people are crazy about The Hobbit right now. Presentation: 4/5 It was nice to have the excerpt from the book describing your build. Build/Quality: 5/10 Well, it's pretty not obvious what it is. I haven't read The Hobbit, and I don't remember seeing this in An Unexpected Journey, so I didn't have a clue what it really was supposed to be. Then, it's almost too detailed. You tried adding so much detail that the scale actually killes it. I don't really know what scale it is suppoed to be, I don't have a reference of a character or anything so it is a big pile of rocks to me. 12/20.
Thanks for your honest opinion! Yeah, I had like one day left to build this so I just kind of threw this together. Yeah, I agree it does look like a big pile of rocks... which is actually what it is, but anyway, thanks for your rating! (It's my first contest so I don't exactly know what the judges want). Thanks for letting me know your opinion and what judges want in the future!
