Hi everyone,

I would like to invite everyone to our one-off NWDA Image Contest. There are some great prizes to win, so read on ;)

Everyone can participate, regardless whether you are a NWDA customer or not. But we have 2 prize categories:

Prize for winning image, not using any NWDA preset:
Choose 3 tech packs from our portfolio

Prize for winning image, making use of any of the tech packs:
The full available tech pack portfolio (yes, the winner gets it all) of participating NWDA partners, plus any potential future packs that may come out in the two months following the contest start!

The NWDA partners sponsoring the prizes are TU, RArcher, Seth and myself... so far.

Here are the rules:
- Theme: realism, any motif
- Postwork: allowed, but adding anything to the image in post is not allowed
- There is only one winner per prize category. Only one submission per person.

- Contest Start: today !!!
- Deadline for submission: July 15th, but you can submit whenever your work is finished.

We are looking forward to seeing your submissions.

Hi folks, I find it a very good idea.
But is it not the one who makes the most realistic picture, perhaps your tech pack does not need? Since he is already so well with Terragen can work?

I am not sure to understand what you're writing ^^
but if you stated that the winner doesn't need any of our packs... so be it, he'll get them anyway ;)
I don't know anybody that will spit on any prize !

Hi,

I am not sure what your question is. In the beginning of the announcement, we wrote that it does not matter if you are using our packs our not. There is a prize for you to win.
We honor our previous customers by sponsoring an extended 2nd prize.

Does that answer your question?

Thanks,
Frank

I think anyone would appreciate the packs even if they are pros.  After all they are easy to use simplifcations of some harder concepts, and its always nice to get to poke around node networks and learn.

I already have a few ideas for what I might do, probably will draft a couple up, work on them then decide from there which feels best to me.... mmm my lack of having time to use TG2 is getting to me... stupid exam week...

But its almost over (as I type I need to leave in a few minutes for campus to go take my final exam at 7pm... multivariable calculus).  Then it's semester over... and straight to work lol.  But I now will have free nights to play with TG2 and modeling.  Wohoo!

Why would anybody say no to free stuff, especially stuff of NWDA quality? ;)

As TU said, jet the games begin  ;D

Also if the person doesn't really want the packs, its not like they need to do the contest.

let's get over it. There was confusion and misunderstanding due to the google translation.

Cool!!!

Frank, TU, Seth and Ryan can't play.   ;D  Errr, or is that in the rules, you know, about family members of the company and stuff?  LOL

Oh yeah...and I'm in.    :P
So this is Disney World.  Can we live here?

since 5 minutes I'm thinking of an equally sharp-tongued reply, but I can't concentrate over the continued laughing and chuckling on my part ;D
