Congratulations to everyone that entered. it's been a while since we had any kind of challenge and we're pleased that it turned out to be a good one. We also thank Doctorwayne for taking on the task of running this challenge. Please, everyone needs to vote, even if it's one vote for everyone that participated, just to show you appreciate their efforts.

I’d like to thank the Chairman and the Board of Big Blue for allowing challenges such as this one, and DocWayne for organising this one.
I may end up sounding like a broken record but I will say again, all the modelling projects that have been under taken for this challenge gives me the inspiration to try even harder to improve my modelling efforts, whether I achieve the results is down to me.
This is a long winded way of saying that I had difficulties in deciding who got my vote.
As for my own challenge, with hindsight I gave myself the “kiss of death” by adding Part 1 to my title, I should know better!!
That said, the challenge, my first, had its desired effect as it did get me off my duff, and I am slowly continuing with it as time permits.
Cheers, the Bear.

I would like to say thanks to admins and organizers of this challange and would say thank also to those who have voted for my caboose project.
Thanks again for this really well designed certificate which has found its place on my website, of course. this challenge was a really nice experience to me and I would be lucky to be a member also at a next contest.
Cheers, Bernd
