    It made me laugh. But then again, so did a lot of them. Closely runnered up by Diomede.\

     

    Special mention goes to UB"s striking balloon render. And also to Varsel terrific hair in his Springtime render.

     

    Great work Cbird thanks for hosting. Terrific challenge and images.

    A gentle reminder to vote, if you haven't yet had the chance. Tomorrow I shall attempt math--ack.

  • CbirdCbird Posts: 493

    This field of entries was excellent evidence of how creative and imaginative Carrara folks are. I wish there were more prizes! Thank you to everyone who entered and to all who voted. With each artist able to win one prize the winners follow.

    1) Bunyip02--overall challenge winner.

    2) Varsel--image with most votes.

    3) DesertDude--image with second most votes.

    4) Stezza--funniest image--

    With the absence of someone identifying as a newcomer, it seemed appropriate to recognize the image with the second most votes.

    Congratulations to all who entered, and thank you for all the support to this rookie challenge host with special thanks to Unified Brain whose help was invaluable.

    Daz sponsorship for this challenge is appreciated!

    If you are one of the winners, please send me the email attached to your account, and I will forward to Daz.

    I believe hosting now passes to Bunyip02 for Carrara Challenge #53 (if willing).
