Surely there's four - yourself, Theuns, Rjeff and Weevil.
The castle challenge has so far been exceptional in the MMC for the number of participants, most of the others have had much lower take-up, as you know. Of course, we all hoped it would continue to do well with the influx of new users, but this is quite a specialist/niche subject, and some of the regular participants (myself included) are somewhat buried with other things, both of which may have limited take-up this month. |

Yeah, and I'm not suppose to enter my final image for voting... :(
Maybe we should post in the round table for more people to enter? And expand the theme to "woodland homes" as was suggested?

Suprisingly...I like it when there's not many people, I'm going to be entering as many as possible y'know, but a smaller group means people will have to think harder in a way, you can also keep tabs in the competition (minus mine...that sank...I updated it though...boo) |

I may enter this month, but it depends on how much free time I have over the next few days. This competition is a lot more ambitious than the increasingly popular speed modeling contest, it will take time to take off.
At least there's been four more images created than may have been this month. My advice would be to make this contest bi-monthly for now, or perhaps even perpetual (there may be new users who would like to make fairy homes in the future). |

Having cut my teeth on a few SMCs, I've been keen to enter the MMC for quite a while now. The only thing is, of late, it always seems to be on an architectural topic, which doesn't really float my boat. I'm enjoying watching all your WIPs though. Keep up the good work all. |

Well... It has been said before that the last two (not including this one) were of architectural nature. Hopefully, we will get something else next month. Remember though, I won with Stonehenge and picked castles. From castles to fantasy homes.... Couldn't you "build" something organic? One of our month's people is doing that... Let's find out what people's favorite type of thing to make is. Do you want to do robots? characters? Landscapes? Remember that the Monthly challenge is a whole scene, not just a single object. |

Very true, it does make the competition much more intensive doesn't it :)

Now that you guys mention it, I didn't even realise we now had 3 architecturals in a row!!! ;)
Perhaps the next one would be something more abstract like "swarms" which could be a swarm of racing vehicles future or present or past, swarms of insects or robots, birds and planes of course... space fleets... fish or subs... lots of possibilities ;)
Since we have so few entries, I think I'll enter my WIP as well for this one... and if I have time, make a second, since I was in the mood for a more 'treehouse' type thing, maybe a more organic one that is 'grown' to request by Fairies or Gnomes? ;) |

About 11 hours left to go, might be a little later if I can't get online at that time [its 7am locally ] so perhaps only at 11pm or midnight tonight PST... ;) |

Looking good rjef :)
I also found myself running out of time, too many things happening in RL that interferes with my creative yearnings ;)

NOTE: Dues to lack of time I haven't been able to sort out the issue with the fairy's reflection, or make better bottles...
