Hi,

I want to enter and Win (ha ha ha i'm nuts i know:) and i am astonished at the prizes being offered for the winning participants.

Any of the first 7 prizes is a REAL big boost to any young and learning artist such as myself. If i were to win any of the first 7 prizes, then wow, i'd say thats pretty good for 2 months work.

I just can't wait for it to start, though. I just hop ei wont hafta model humans.

To loose to those better than myself is a great feeling and helps me learn and grow better and better, but i'm not holding back, i'll be putting out my best and i'm gonna slave over my entry for the entire 2 months (i have nothing else to do for the next 3 months or so).

I sure could use New BOXX PC, or top end GFX card :-)

When oh when does it start?

I think that's the point, rewarding some talented up-and-comers with a nice boost to their development:) best of luck!

Makes sense :-) sure is driving me to the next level.

And thanks for wishing me good Luck, however luck has nothing to do with it, hard work and determination does (oh and loads of talent :-)

I love how CGtalk have structured this, with emphasis on COMMUNITY and SHARING of knowledge rather than just something the BIG league guys can hope to win and make something off.

I doubt i'll be able to share much but my yap will be spewing encouragement and advice to all those that care to listen, cause i'm sure i'll need some help in the later stages myself.

May the best people win :-)

I've always entered the challenge with no intentions of even getting a book. I guess which is why I've probably never finished. But this time I'm gonna am high and I will hope my work reflects it.


That's why there are really cool prizes. You push yourself to learn and do things you didn't before, which in all actuality is the best prize of all.

I can't wait to take part in this one. It will be hard to find time with school in the way, but I'm gonna do my best to make time. Really push myself. I am such a noob but I guess there will be plenty of people to help me along in the wip. I'm so pumped!
