Hmm, I entered as well but you got to think of this too:
https://www.cgtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=96387

Obviously the arguement could be put forward that the promise of winning 1st, 2nd or 3rd place is payment in itself. However, with 253 current entrants at the time of writing that's 250 people who, no matter what - will recieve nothing. And yet that's 250 peices of artwork that can be used in any manner CGNetworks/Alienware choose.

it'll have to be alien landscape as you can't have life (it's in the rules).

It's a good start. Maybe too earthy like atm but I'm sure it'll change to more alien type thing later. I like the cocoon idea...

What you need is more plant life to give it a more alien look... unless that is not allowed either. Then this seems like an extremely difficult contest.
