Unfortunitly, I have no examples :mad:

No danboh's! The cuteness factor skews the results!

Great shot though!

Ah christ. Not even most devoted petrolhead would be able to guess all three from that angle :pac: The spolier (??) on the middle one make me think of a porsche...

xia

Ok. The first was an old Nissan. Probably Micra but didn't check. Sorry. The other two were quite new Mercedes...
tbh I didn't think anybody would give it a try:o

(of my 700 odd posts on boards, 80% of them are in the motors section)

Oh. I did see some of them (your car pics) here alright. But as to me the shadows of all three looked basically the same...Ok, lesson learnt.

This is taken straight off the camera. Also my first time trying to put a border on a shot. Think it works ok?

I know the light posts are distracting - but some fool said no PS

I got the idea form the Danbo stuff
As I dont have a Dando (yet) I decided that Sackboy can come out to play
be nice its my first time posting in an assignment thread
(and yes using a cute little figure is kind of cheating I know)

.Longshanks.

^ Is that a actual model or is it screen shot from LittleBigPlanet on the PS3? If you bought it...where did you get it!?!? My danboard needs a mate!

Feel free to post a new thread on the main forum. The title should offer a brief description of the image and include "C&C".

Prepare for honest feedback of what people think and remember that they may not see whatever you see in your image which is their prerogative - i.e. don't be thin skinned when it comes to it

mrmac

Too much time on my hands this morning. :rolleyes:

Vaguely remember seeing a (much better) version of this in a magazine somewhere. Here's my, quick & nasty, attempt

MOD EDIT: Yup - stick it between IMG tags or hit the insert image button

and you'll get;

Well spotted! It was the thickest book I had that would stay open. Often when I was studying it I wished I could plug my headphones into it and have it read out to me. That was the inspiration.

mrmac

Two entries are pretty much neck n' neck at the moment.

If anyone wants to vote: do it now!

I'll squeeze another one in........

mrmac

As it's a dead heat, I'm going to leave this open for another hour. :eek:

Tallon

I know i'm too late to be in with any real chance, but I said I would enter!

Meet your maker

mrmac

Still tied!

Ok, there are 27 members and 5 Mods in here atm - so I'm going to put up a thread in the main forum seeking votes - now closing at 23.59!

mrmac

Thanks everyone who took part - and the winner is ....

WheresMyCamera?

Well done.

I've sent a PM to WheresMyCamera? to inform him.

xia

Wow. That was quite clear in the end.
Mrmac you should organise this more often;) You did it very well.
Congrats @WheresMyCamera. I've to say go got my vote after I saw your set up.

WheresMyCamera?

Wow!! I'm actually totally surprised that I won! I really didn't think I could compete with Longshanks100 and Danbo (really really loved your image btw)
Thanks to mrmac for organizing the challenge and to everyone for all the votes. (And I'm gonna shut up now before I venture into Hailey Berry territory:o )

For anyone who's interested here's how I set up the image.

Now too have a look at the past challenges and pick a new one........
