Remember to NOT reveal the identity of your entry :) This means that there will probably be less "asking of opinions" etc but we'll see how it goes

[cycosis]

man, it seems that all the people that vote for me are the ones who are new memebers. READ THE FUCKIN RULES NEXT TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hjr]

it really wouldnt matter as they wouldnt vote or the votes get deleted. in the end you still recieve the same amount of votes.

[nismodrifter]

cycosis, don't worry........you've won something :) I'll post details in a thread later on tonight :)

[nismodrifter]

btw on a side note: entries will NOT be posted up like right after the deadline. I will be posting up your entries as they are submitted (ie: if you send me your entry today then it will be up TODAY) Still want people to have a chance to see what they are up against :)

[hyperwhite]

this is the most pain in the ass car i've had to work with in a long time. i don't know if i'll have a good enough entry in 9 days from now.

[nismodrifter]

lol, I chose it because of the angle lol :D is that whats so much trouble?

[habsfan]

the angle, and the fact that its such a nice car to start with! lol

[car]

ooo....got an idea.....gonna be hard though.......

[hyperwhite]

no plz dont'...I think I mentioned that in the rules somewhere. we want to keep the entries anonomyous until contest is over

edit: yes I did mention it in the rules...plz make sure to always read them over...I try to answer normal questiosn like this before they are even asked by someone

Also, if you send me your entry via email and then you DO NOT see it up in the contest thread within 24 hours then PLEASE send me a pm so I know something is up :)

[car]

i always flatten it, too confusing,
i cant handle more than 8:D

[Porsche911]

damn this car is so hard to work with

[car]

wow, this comment thing's goin pretty slooooow this month....

[86max]

:werd: I think noone wants to say anything that will reveal their entry.

Some nice entries so far:thumbsup:
ONE DAY LEFT!!!!Let's see some more!

[hyperwhite]

haha, wow. this is one of the smallest comments threads ever. and there is only what, 7 cars so far. there better be a shit load posted up tomorrow

[Porsche911]

theirs a few more up now
i take it your not allowed to say stuff like "entry321 has no door" and stuff?

[86max]

I think you can say stuff about the chops themselves, just nothing that will reveal the identity of the creator......for example...."that cop 350z is sweet...I wouldn't want that thing chasing me down"......but noone really knows if I'm complimenting my own work, or someone elses......so it's all good.

[nismodrifter]

yeh all that stuff is fine guys, just don't reveal identiy of your chop :)

[Porsche911]

i think that police car is a good chop really clean i like the colours
weres the door handel on entry 3? oh well their all pritty good chops

[nismodrifter]

having no door handles is quite common on show cars on our side of the world :)

[habsfan]

well, i officially have no entry, i was working on one that i started absolutely at the last minute, but im being kicked off the computer, so theres no chance in it being done for tonights deadline. oh well, im still learning how to use photoshop n e ways :nut:

[86max]

that sucks d00d....you've had some good entries

[MenteL]

Looks like I thought tomorrow was may 9th. I'm like, 15 minutes shy of the 11pm deadline. Oh well. Next month I guess? Was looking forward to checking this show out.

eek didn't notice.....hrmmmm...I could be really mean or really nice to this user.....lemme think about this...

edit: I decided to give him a break and add the VUB text/logo in there for him :) He deserved it though....he sent me a PM today out of the blue with some suggestions to better the contest and voting :)

[D'z Nutz]

Lots of nice entries this month! I had trouble picking between 1, 2, 5, and 6 especially :)

[nismodrifter]

I didn't get a chance to create an entry for this month's compeittion....maybe I'll do this pic for fun later on or something

lots of nice work this month, a wide range of styles, big :thumbsup: to all who entered this month, best of luck to you guys

[Porsche911]

Why carnt the voting sytem be in a poll format?

[nismodrifter]

its been answered many times before. It's to allow for a fair voting system which can be monitored (its very easy to cheat with a poll style system..)

[henky]

damn f**k i missed the deadline... :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

here´s my version

... i know that the front bumper looks a bit shitty

[86max]

That looks pretty good henky, except that door looks funny:) That fron bumper suits that car well.:thumbsup:

[nismodrifter]

hrmm...now I wonder where you got that idea from :D :D ;)
Your entry looks great, very clean, too bad you missed the deadline :(

I also just noticed, I screwed up the voting thread and said that voting ends on May 12th at 11:59pm, voting actually ends MAY 13th AT 11:00PM sorry for any mixup...but thats what happens when I do this shit at like 2am

btw..this is one of my earlier chops....did this like 2-3 years ago I think, I think it was like my 5th chop ever...

[6thGen.TUNER]

Post edited - we want to keep this 100% anonymous....don't want to start "the guessing game" of who did which entry. I'll post up who all entered the contest at the end
