Entry: #1
Title: "Attack of the Bullion Eating Tomato."
Artist: Headwax
Entry Type: NPR
A note for Tomato et al,. requirements met: There is a tomato in the foreground courtesy of GKDantas thank you.
WIP Links: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/comment/2431196/#Comment_2431196
Products Used: Pirates Dining Room thingy (waste of money as all the things on the table (deleted in this render) come as one big object so you cant use them in separately - who had that idea?) , lots of Pirate clothes and weapons and stuff mainly from MortemVetus who is on my wish list for evrything they make.
Did you have fun? - Yes thank you Stezza and Larsen and Daz :) Though the tomato jokes were a little underripe.
Additional Notes: I rendered out many Carrara passes and treated the final image( and also some of the passes) with different filters to simplify the image a a little. A guy I go surfing with told me the captain's right hand grabbing the knife was unconvincing ... :) I think the tomato is convinced though.
Thanks Stezza, you went above and beyond. It's becoming a habit with the challenge hosts - will have to put a stop to it!

Title: "Swamp Tomato"
Artist: Diomede

Products Used - GK Dantas freebie killer tomato (Thank you), Genesis, genesis troll shader maps (adjusted), Genesis 2 female, G2F Valerie skin maps (adjusted), Hongyu bikini top for genesis 2 female, Basicwear for genesis 2 female.
Did you have fun? Most fun ever! Still having fun.
Additional notes: most of the stuff is pretty basic, sun is a vertex sphere, trees were created in the plant modeler, water was made from two planes (top layer with water shader, lower layer with shadow catcher to limit depth of transparency), terrains are basic, fog is from volumetric clouds, branch being held modeled in vertex modeler, eyes and other morphs for tomato head done in vertex modeler. Ran renders for PR, NPR, and Toon with passs for volumetrics and others then used image editor to try for poster look. Apologies to actual Swamp Thing folks.

Title: "The Half Blind Joker"
Artist: Headwax
Entry Type: NPR
A note for Tomato et al,. requirements met: There are tomatoes in the air and in the basket he is standing courtesy of a nice person on share cg. The leaves are made with a transmap and texture map.
WIP Links: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/comment/2449246/#Comment_2449246
Products Used: a wall I found attached to a medieval house, a jokers costume which I really like Funnyman from the seriously good Brahann MortemVetus RuntimeDNA , face texture and blind eye from MortemVetus, the bear is from a Redhouse interior shoppe ? , . Baskets and carrots are from a medieval market. The church is the one I was married in and the castle is one of my ancestral homes - of course we were much smaller then.
Did you have fun? - Yes thank you Stezza and Larsen and Daz :)
Additional Notes: I rendered out many Carrara passes and treated the final image and also some of the passes with different filters to simplify the image a alittle. Thanks to Dart and @, Vyusur for their constructive c anc on the lack od pose dynamics in the original. The wall I used a displacement on - unsual for me.
Thanks again Stezza
Here's a second go of my work thanks to the previous feedback ;)

Entry: 9 "The First Cut Is The Deepest"
Awesome job ladies and gentlemen, and really hard to decide.
In no particular order.
Entry: #9 "The First Cut Is The Deepest" Artist: PhilW
Entry: #10 «He argued too much» "(Too Mato)" Artist: Vyusur
Entry: #12 "Revenge of the Red Baron" Artist: UnifiedBrain
"First cut"... the best version of a sliced tomato I recall seeing in 3D. Keep an eye on this guy... he shows promise. :)
"He argued too much"... I get a different take or idea about this everytime I look at it.
"Revenge of"... I found humorous and liked the comic style to tell the story
All renders were excellent. I'd vote for them all if able.
In numerical order (and this really did come down to the toss of a coin!)
