    I am wondering... Is there an official case or chicken model? I don't think everyone modeled their own chicken...

    If it's not in the future, the case might be in the past... It doesn't mean it's going to be any easier to retrieve.

    The case history

    A friend of mine told me the case was seen in a market in the Middle East. A strange unknown person crashed into the stalls with an old motorcycle, stole the briefcase and fled, causing chaos.
    My friend sent me this photo.

    Thank you, guys... I unconsciously thought the zip file was to download the image or something...

    As I investigate the rolling hills of the British countryside, on this sweet hog I found in a tesco's car park, I am reminded that our glorious investigation is already drawing to a close. We have gathered a compelling amount of high quality evidence, from the depths and breadths of this illustrious forum. The days dwindle and the clock ticks denizens, can we finally find the culprit?! When the clock strikes midnight on the 30th of April (British time, not American time, you have too many times), the investigation will reach its zenith, and we will finally unmask those responsible.

    Lets crack this case Denizens!

    Love,

    Hubbie

    Richard is on the Case

    Sir Hubert Bottomley will be shocked to discover that no human was clever enough to steal the case. However, for Richard, the smartest cat in the world, it was an easy task. When he needed a new litter box, that snazzy case looked just perfect. Nobody would suspect a cat, so he walked right in and took it. His clever disguise of of the case as a lunch box diverted attention. He's going to have to do something about the suspicious eerie glow from the case lid, though. Meanwhile the world's oppulent riches are safely clumped (eeewwwww) away from prying eyes After all, nobody wants to mess with icky cat litter.

    Can't Move It Now

    The rule is, if the cat is sleeping on it, you can’t move it. Can’t change the rules, even if the item is a super top-secret magical briefcase. Sorry. 

    Rendered in Daz Studio Iray.

    No postwork except for the watermark.

    (I had already finished this one before I saw Barbult's entry, but even though they look similar, I thought I'd go ahead and enter it anyways since it's a different idea)

    That wink and smirk indicate that you know more than you are letting on.

    @barbult Heh, it's nice to see Richard make a return (and making a mess as usual). Glad to see there are no feathers around this time.

    These Are Not the Chickens You're Looking For

    "Yes sir, both suspects are in custody and the case is secured.
    The chicken? It's inside the case sir; but there aren't any runes on it. No, it's sort of chubby and has a red heart on it... kind of cute and seems valuable.
    Worthless, sir? You can get as many as you like for free online? I see. No sir, I can't just throw it away; it's still evidence!"

    I really like this image. Her pose is great and the handcuffs on the dog is priceless.

    An update with the correct case. The Chicken-ntel had a patch.

    All Praise the Chicken!

    The search for the case has led me to a peculiar and perhaps dangerous cult...

    The Burden of the Chickenbearer

    "I know what you're thinking, but no; there's nothing magical draining the hobbit; the darn thing's just too heavy."

    This silly idea came to mind while I was working on Not the precious!, a hobbit trudging around with an oversized poultry precious seemed hilarious. But, as expected, it was more fun in my mind than it is in practice.

     

    Dude, Check Out the New Arts Teacher!

    Another rather meh entry, but at least I found something to give the banana a more prominent role, not just background clutter. Working with Make Art buttons is difficult, no idea why people would ever want such a thing.
