I had Nathaniel Barrera's entry in my top 3 since the beginning... However when I needed to see the full resolution size of the images during the final round when I was picking my top 3... the cutting board struck my eye like a seam line. I got disappointed coz I thought I have a clear winner at that point. All are topnotch works, I just value the presentation so much this time as this is a also a Photography contest. Great stuffs never the less from everyone. :)Don Suratos ( DC23 )https://www.blogger.com/profile/18142248866743450196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-793619573281479010.post-72455583071550545992011-02-11T20:07:19.404+08:002011-02-11T20:07:19.404+08:00um, hi @sonar I'm Gio by the way.. the skirtin...um, hi @sonar I'm Gio by the way.. the skirting board is actually part of the wall and the elevator which is the CD case lowering .

But having not even noticed the cutting mat before you pointed it out I figured others wouldn't also. I mean if we're going to nitpick Giovanni's entry has a skirting board in it and a CD tray that hasn't even tried to be disguised as something else. Both absolutely masterful entries, neither of which were my first place pick. I have to say Gio's pics are much more clear, but Nathaniel's were more imposing and realistic, which was what swayed me in the end.<br /><br />BTW Syd's last name is Sked ;)Don Suratos ( DC23 )https://www.blogger.com/profile/18142248866743450196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-793619573281479010.post-65492349492933196642011-02-11T18:08:33.835+08:002011-02-11T18:08:33.835+08:00Very good combination color i like it.....Very good combination color i like it.....Don Suratos ( DC23 )https://www.blogger.com/profile/18142248866743450196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-793619573281479010.post-78037188789355339102011-02-11T12:30:18.161+08:002011-02-11T12:30:18.161+08:00WOHOOOOO!!!! and to think I just set it up overnig...WOHOOOOO!!!! and to think I just set it up overnight, rushed photoshoot coz the tissue burns so fast.. almost burned Sinanju's side arm armor..then I have to sell the whole dio and kits in the morning..whew...but it's worth it..being on the finals is very very good and I'm deeply honored ..being one of the first...wow(shocked)!!..That's a biggie for me..XD<br /><br />Thank you all so much for all the judges ,DC you're the man !! and most of all...for all of this earthshaking contest to Gundam Guy !!..MAY WE ALL LIVE LONGER SPREADING GUNPLA LOVE.
