"Misery me! I have heard songs of many battles, and I have always understood that defeat may be glorious. It seems very uncomfortable, not to say distressing. I wish I was well out of it."

- Bilbo Baggins, The Clouds Burst

Bilbo puts his ring on to avoid the fray. He can only look on as shadowy figures clash all around him and chaos unfolds...

Neat entry, TinyPiesRUs! The build itself reminds me a lot of my BotFA moc (third pic in my sig,) but the shadowy minifigures are a very original and creative take on this. Way to really think outside the box!

Lovely build and brilliant use of grey bricks to represent the shadow figures that Bilbo sees with the ring on. :sweet:

Very nice! The silhouetted figures really capture the feel of the scene, and it makes sense with Bilbo wearing the ring. :thumbup:

Great. The shadowy ring-vision take with this little vig really works well, and it's well executed. The light, medium, and dark monotones help keep it from looking too muddled but still sell the effect. Well done!

Great take on the category ! I was thinking about how to make an believable effect for wearing the ring, now we got the solution.

Good luck !
