Rookie Competition

[Hazmat Ranger]

Ok in an effort to keep things alive in here I am putting together a Rookie Competition. I will not be participating in this one in other words. So let's pick a subject to "chop" - it does not have to be a car, but has to be tasteful. Post up a few ideas and choose something BEFORE tomorrow evening.

Any Skill level may participate

Any work/chop is acceptable as long as it incorporates the subject chosen.

No cut-n-paste of someone elses work.

NO Flaming or disrespectful comments about anyones works - we all began somewhere.

Keep chops legit - no cartoons, making CollinRMitchell type works - LOL (no offense collin). This is to challenge your abilities with Photoshop or other graphics editing software.

Please tell us what you used to make your chop also.

PRIZE:

I am thinking of offering a full fledged render of the chosen winner's truck to their request. Just a thought - LOL.

So post up some ideas . . .

Here are some car wallpaper sites - there are more but I like these personally.

http://www.netcarshow.com/

http://www.dieselstation.com/

Once a subject is chosen, I will start it off at the end of this thread and give a timeframe, like a week or two.

All chops WILL be PM'd to me to set-up a vote thread - NO WORKS POSTED HERE.

Here is the chop subject - the Holden HFV6 Rodeo - :icon_thumby:

[Chance]

I'm in! Go ahead and make the call hazmat... I'll shop watev

[Hazmat Ranger]

Ok - I am going to wait until this evening when I get to Houston to start this and choose a subject. ANYONE can join in as long as you finish by the deadline, which I will set up tonight.

[Hazmat Ranger]

Ok - I edited the posts above - The subject will be the Holden Rodeo since this is a truck site.

Details:

You have 1 week or until Midnight Saturday in the respective time zones to complete you works.

This one is important: ABSOLUTELY NO ENTRIES IN THIS THREAD! PM them to me and I will post them into a poll thread for voting next Sunday. This keeps all the works private until showtime. Any works posted in this thread will be deleted - so please do not post them. thank you . . .

There is no theme to work by, just keep them realistic so to speak - no cartoons, making CollinRMitchell type works - LOL (no offense collin). This is to challenge your abilities with Photoshop or other graphics editing software.

Anyone can enter - except me - LOL.

Ok - I think that about covers the basics - any questions PM me - I will reply as soon as I can.

Good Luck to all that submit an entry - the chosen winner will receive a full fledged render of their truck, by me, to their choosing - such as those wallpapers you see all the time of custom rides.

GO! :icon_thumby:

To prevent accidental posting of entries - yes accidental posts happen all the time - I am locking this thread. The poll thread will go up next Sunday before noon - all entries MUST be PM'd to me BEFORE MIDNIGHT in your time zone. Thank You and Good Luck

[Hazmat Ranger]

ATTENTION CHOPPERS!!

OK - DEADLINE has passed and I received one entry - anyone else? I am leaving for a car show today at about 11:00 Central Time so get them to me ASAP or Post them here. If no other entries - the one entry wins by default . . . I opened this to allow posting - I will make the vote thread if there are more.

Good Luck

[Hazmat Ranger]

I am leaving NOW for a car show and only have one entry - I will accept them until I get home - since there is only one - if you have an entry post it here or PM me. Last Chance

[Hazmat Ranger]

Well I see no entries - Chance is the only entry sent it so he is the winner by default - congrats Chance . . .
