Congrats and thank you to all who participated in the summer challenge! There were a lot of great entries and it was tough narrowing it down to a top 3 let alone a winner.

Congrats guys!

Was a really fun challenge!

congrats funky bunnies
well deserved win

that was one of the best comps i have seen on here
wish i had entered now, but exams were in the way
oh well

Congrats to the winners!
:beer:

I just had an idea that when someone won a challenge they get the badges added to their profile, or under their avatar. Does anyone else agree? Also, would this be possible? :confused:

Gratz guys and funky first of course.

Really great entries from all, and I think the top 3 just raised the bar for the next challenge... Brrrrrrr.

I am really glad you defended Ninja camp Legolas.
Arrrr... Shiver me shurikens.

When the new site goes live (one day) we'll have this ability.

we can always use it under the signature for now...

Jay

Sweet! BTW, how is the new site going? I haven’t heard any news on it in a long time.

Yeah, but that clutters up the sig.

Well whatever floats ya boat eh!

a bit dissapointed i didnt place, but wow, great entries! a well desrved win Funky Bunnies!

Congratulations to Funky Bunnies, a really great standard in this challenge well done to all .

Congrats to all :beer:
There where a lot of good entries in this one. Lets hope the next challenge is this popular.

Congrats FunkyBunnies! I thought it would come down between you and Jay, I would have never thought Jay would have gotten 3rd. Anyway, congrats for a great entry!

I also want to say, congrats to Legolas-hv for earning 2nd!

oops I forgot we could post here somehow! haha

Thanks a ton, all! :D

It was an honor competing with you guys! There were some awesome entries all around :bow:

As a model, I think I liked Jay's the most. It's technically the most advanced. Expertly done, man.

Legolas, I really like the mood in your piece. Polish up the meshes and refine the lighting a bit and it'll be one rockin' folio piece.

As a story, I liked Joopson's. It could use more polish on the realization, but I thought it was a really fun and original concept. It's easy to relate to dressing up like ninjas or pirates or superheroes or a woman - oops... awkward... :p
Hopefully I'll see ya'll on the battlefield again! :beer:

COOL!
Well done all of you.
What can I say, I loved funky's pirate, I'm glad you got the first place, budy.
Now let's see the next one!

Congrats funky!

Man this challenge had a heap of good entries, lets hope we can double that amount for the next ...

Just on a side note Mike, when were emailed by things such as big announcements like new tutorial releases and that, you reckon it would also be good to have it for things like the winners of the challenge, or the vote poll? Incase people forgot or something like that.

Cheers all,

Marlon
