"Come, my friends; the Ents are going to war."
About this creation
An entry into the LOTR Lego contest over at lego.com. This was my first entry into the contest, and I still think it's one of my best LOTR builds to date. It depicts (as you may have noticed :P) Treebeard the Ent, toting the hobbits Merry and Pippin back home to the Shire. However, they stumble (thanks to Pippin's incredible persuasive skillz ^_^) across the charred remains of the edge of Fangorn Forest. Treebeard is ticked off enough to launch an attack with the rest of the ancient Tree-Herders, and takes down Isengard.


This was a very frustrating build. I really did the entire body, arms, and legs over the course of almost a month. Then, one day, everything seemed to fall into place, and his head and face were finished in less than an hour.

A nice side view. I didn't take many pictures, since you were only able to upload a max of five into the contest anyway.

And a "Hobbit-eye" view.
Thanks for looking! Soli Deo Gloria!

Hey just letting you know the results are out for the LoTR building challenge over on Lego.com and I am very upset... Unfortunately neither of us won however if you would like to know why Im so upset, check out the winner's entries! They'll blow you away...NOT. (except for Blake's that is)
Well, we all knew Blake was going to win something, haha. Too bad for us, though. All's well that ends well. |

Super cool entry! (Continuing what we were discussing on my entry): Yeah I havent heard anything about the contest and you would have thought by now the results would be out or something! I havent even gotten a magazine yet to see who in the world did win. Since there were so many entries to the contest it must take a while to judge, however I did take the time when the contest closed to go through all 1000 or so entries and had a list of about 40 or so builds that were actually decent/good, original (not just taking a pic of your figs on a TLG set), and relevant and I remember seeing yours :) haha but oh well |
