'It's not over until...' |
I'm delighted to announce that we have our first Fortnight Theme Bonus Round ready for viewing. Please follow this link or use the navigation bar above to navigate to the page.
From my last count we have nearly 40 entrants for this round and they are all wonderful. To kick off the fun, here is my submission, 'It isn't over until...'
I feature my entry to both open the Theme Round, but more importantly, to show off one of Kawe's figures, Maria Theresia of Austria which I've shamelessly defaced to depict a simple opera singer. So why is this figure important? Well, Kawe is going to ship each and every participant of the Challenge a copy of this limited edition casting as a special memento of the event. And this is on top of generously providing prize support for other elements of the Challenge. An amazing gesture Kawe - I thank you.
So, please visit the Theme's gallery and look in wonder at all the entrants' wonderful work. Also, don't forget to vote for your favourites using the poll I've made up for this bonus round (you'll see it on the right-side panel). Vote for as many entrants as you like - there is no limitation.
Wow that was quick! Well done Curt.

ReplyDeleteCurt - when do we get our points added to our totals?
Jeez. Cool your jets, girl. It took me several days to get this much arranged. I'll get to it after I have dinner, movie and a glass with my missus (and perhaps some sleep). ;)

Curt I do not envy you for having to compile this... I can only hope the other rounds draw less entries for your sake! ;-)
