And there was me thinking that some of you must have a stash of these things already bookmarked for future (ab)use.

I was just hoping that no one badgered Jim. 

And yes I do have a stash of these.  lol

You lot are a bunch of feckless and ungrateful children. Completing the wizard's tower must come first. It's a labour of love after all. :)

Look at how disappointed that Disappointed Badger is at the badgering going on.

I'll echo the above comments,  there is a really high level of imagination and workmanship on display.

Voted, but it was hard. I don't know how I will decide on a vote from the finalists though... o_o

Edit: Well it seems I left out Group A and remembered why. I still can't choose an entry...

I don't think you put anyone's nose out of joint the last time, but I think I've had a change of heart with it. My original thinking was its so easy to make repeated patterns and just copy and paste over your 3D design. But I hadn't really considered the whole making one model and casting it multiple times to get the same effect thing.

Personally, I think Hammers it right, let's have the discussion later, after the comp. It may be worth having a conversation about ANY processes we can use, be it 3D printing, sculpting, casting or laser cutting. Maybe change it for the next time?

I think it has been a great competition so far. I am really impressed with all the entries and sorry I couldn't finish my own.
Leave the rules as is.
Just add extra time for the slow pokes  :D
A bit more notice of the theme would be nice as I had a half finished ship I could have used :'(
