Okay,


I have a few things to say...



First off, I want to thank you all for joining and watching this group: it's been an awesome start for "us". I appreciate all of the submissions we get, even the ones that I deny(because it shows you're willing to submit artwork!)! You've all been great! :D

I would also like to say sorry for not posting many journals, including the weekly features that I promised. That just wasn't working. So I decided to devise a better system: one to fit my schedule (hopefully). I'm keeping monthly posts, but they'll be more informative and fun. Basically, I'll do a simple feature of some of my favorite submissions over the month and such, they'll be a section on some recommended deviants to watch, a section devoted to news, updates, and personal thoughts on the Hobbit movies, a section for apologies and "oops" confessions (that means my mistakes over the month), a section for new stuff and features in the group, a section for new affiliates, a place for your thoughts, comments, and other things, and possibly more! More info on the member participation thing later...
Besides monthly update journals, I will post random journals with links to Hobbit related articles and media, special deviant features, etc. 

I would also like announce that I'm hoping to hold a 100 Members Celebration soon! We're almost there you know! I thought about holding a contest, but I'm not sure how many members would enter. I also need points for rewards first anyway. 
Hey guys, I just want to give you all a quick heads up - I will most likely have no internet or wifi access over the next few days. This is due to the fact we are turning off our computer because of storms and possibly tornadoes in our area. I am sorry for being so inactive! This is why. I promise that when I get my internet back, I will post a journal with my plans for the group. Submissions that were submitted since at least yesterday will not be accepted until later this week. Thank you for your patience!

Love ya all and keep on FREAKING over The Hobbit!!!
HI everyone, today I would like to do a special feature for a special deviant: TrainScribbler!

:icontrainscribbler:

I recently met her, I adore her artwork, and she's a super nice person! I learned just today that she was diagnosed with rheumatism. You can read her whole story in her journal.

Bad News From the Doctor... TIME TO CELEBRATE!!!My Tumblr|My Prints
I make no apology for the following novel of a journal ^^
For those who have not known me very long, let me bring you up to speed quickly. In June last year, I had a rather nasty accident involving an office block window. That decided to leap off it's hinges and onto me. It left me with some, let's call them 'unpleasant' neck and back injuries which worsened rapidly. Skip forwards through various treatments, drugs, blah blah to the last few weeks, where I have been going through testing to look for a rare response to trauma which causes rheumatism. And bully for me, today those tests can back positive. So now I am being referred to the rheumatology department at my local hospital.
Ok.
To be honest, I was expecting this, because my doctor wrote to me requesting a telephone consultation, whi


My heart goes out to her, and although she already has a lot of supportive friends, go out and give her some love! Support her in any way you can, please.

:heart: Head over to her page and give her a llama badge, fave her artwork, watch her, drop her a comment, or even give her points if you have some to spare! Show this deviant some love today! :huggle: :heart:

Now have a look at some of her lovely works of art:

Aereya of the Orossi by TrainScribbler Better Days by TrainScribbler My goodness, are you alright?! by TrainScribbler What Are You Doing? by TrainScribbler 'Behave...' by TrainScribbler Homecoming by TrainScribbler A Quiet Moment by TrainScribbler

TrainScribbler's big imagination can be seen just by looking at her ability to draw her own OCs so vividly! She also has a Middle-earth fan fiction you should check out. :D
Taking one look at her artwork will make you want to commission her! That's right, she does commissions, for points or money.



I'll say it one more time, head over and give her hug if nothing else.



Thank you ahead of time if you respond to this journal, and have a beautiful day!

Welcome to our first Group Feature!


This is our first group feature journal, and soon we'll be doing weekly and monthly features. Just a heads up, we will have featured artists and a few individual pieces of art from artists weekly, and monthly we will feature the best submissions of the month along with a number of featured artists. Basically, the monthly feature will be longer than the weekly feature.


Also, we will feature only artists who, of course, have submitted Hobbit related artwork to the group. We may at times include one or two non-Middle-earth related pieces from those artists also. Don't forget, even if you're not a member but you have artwork submitted into the group by an admin, you may still be eligible for a feature.




Now kick back and enjoy the show!

apparently has mentioned something recently about wanting to film a Doctor Who episode. I personally would love it, since I love Doctor Who and the Hobbit/LOTR. Of course, I love Middle-earth more than time traveling. ;)
