I agree, Isidorn. I was very happy to see more entries as they made it in last night. This contest has been fun. I haven't seen so many male renders since I started using DS a year ago. I love all the entries, and there have been some absolute stunners, but I think all of the entries were top notch. Everyone did a great job on their entries!!! I'm sorry to see it end, but L'Adair has that new thread up so people can still post their male renders without the contest aspect. I have it bookmarked as well.
There were definitely a lot more entries than I thought we would get. It was really nice seeing the contest become so popular. I wouldn't want to judge this one. There were a tremendous amount of awesome renders.
IF you want the numbers. THere were 140 Entires. I repeat that big number
140 Entries
Thank you all for taking part.
Wow! That must be a record somewhere! I feel for the judges having to try and narrow it down to just those few renders that will deserve the top prizes. I'm sure it is a tough job.
Wow... that is a large number. Next time, limit it to one entry per artist, I think. Extras can go to the Michael and friends thread :)
I certainly hope there is a next time. This one was fun. Since the Michael and Friends thread didn't get started until after the contest was over, there wasn't any place to put extra renders. But, yeah, it is there now, and active, and it would be a perfect solution for any overflow if the mods decide to do this again and limit the entries to only one. Although, for a first time contest, I have to say, I really enjoyed seeing all of those nice renders in one place!
THe winners will be announced when the long list has been shortened to a shorter list, which then needs to be reduced even further to a possible short list and then another round of voting to reduce that one to........ I think you may be getting the picture

Thanks for holding this challenge - it's super fun to see all the hot dudes in one place!
(And please don't judge it while you're sober - it's the only way some of us are going to stand half a chance...)
Okay bookmarked that thread. Thanks I'm on holiday until Tuesday so time to Play :-)
This contest certainly ended on a high note. Great last minute entries!

It's Over? What you mean "It's OVER"? I just got ready for my close-up! Mr DeMille? MR DEMILLE! WHERE ARE YOU?
Just a final image to say goodbye to such an amazing competition. Thanks to all the people at DAZ who helped this become a reality.
Typo
........... Flight, not Fight
Corrected.
Wondering what the status of judging is.
Exhausted from the sheer number of entries -- it might take a while...
Okay understood

Thank you all for taking part.
So do we all win a free copy of Daz Studio 4.8 for taking part?
Daz Studio 4.9 but we have to wait until it is ready for general release ;-)
Or use the beta version if you are impatient
Wow, that's quite a lot! And I don't envy you for having to make a choice there... too many great renders!
Thank you for spending so much time and effort on this!

AND THE WINNERS... will be announced after this prolonged ad break. (Cut to shopping channel...)
THe winners will be announced when the long list has been shortened to a shorter list, which then needs to be reduced even further to a possible short list and then another round of voting to reduce that one to........ I think you may be getting the picture
LOL! I know. Just feels like one of those pageants on tv where the winner will be announced after this ad break.
just pulling your leg.
