That MoonMixer looks very cool.
Make sure to put it against a cool background or something like that, so it gets the proper attention (in this Challenge).
Did you get the MoonMixer box?
That might make a good addition to a photo?

You should be able to get the box from Lower Hudson Valley.
...
The only file size limitation is applied to "attachments".
Because the webspace is donated, and I don't want to put too many demands on their file hosting.

Try using an image host, like photobucket, etc...thats what we recommend.

If anyone still has problems posting photos, they can also contact me.
(Just send me the photos and I can add them to your post for you.)
...
A little more than a week to go...I assume hundreds of you are working feverishly to finish your KoolWheelz ideas?!
If I can, I'm going to try to squeeze some more into the final prize pack.
I'll be limited to what I can fit into an envelope or small packet, but who knows.

KoolWheelz Model Challenge

Only a week to go.
If you haven't checked it out, please do.
Entry is free and you might win something.
http://www.papermodelforum.com/

I have added more to the prize Pack.

You don't even have to build a new KoolWheelz model!
Its all about the entry...the photograph...the presentation.
Put your model in a cool display or diorama.
Photograph it in an interesting way or in a kool location.
Impress us with the presentation of your model.

A well built model is always a good thing, so if you have a build you are proud of.
Its just not a prerequisite of the Challenge.

In the end, its all about fun...I hope you will get involved.

Just a reminder...for those who somehow know nothing about it...

today is the last planned day of my KoolWheelz Challenge.
You can find all the info over at my forum www.papermodelforum.com

Anyone is welcome to register for free, and take part.

Unless there is an outcry to extend the deadline, we will be wrapping the Challenge up today.

And then the next step will be choosing a favorite.
I had plans to not choose a winner myself, but rather open it up to a public vote.
This is still the plan, and I will be setting up a Poll style voting system.

I will be asking for everyone to drop by, take a look at the entries
and cast a vote (based on the voting guidelines).


You can find the KoolWheelz Challenge in the Contest, Challenges and Fun! section.
Contests, Challenges and Fun!

If it is "ended on June 1", then today would be the last day to submit an entry.
Isn't that correct?

But I guess it could be misconstrued as "ending" on June 1.

So, no reason why we can't fudge around a bit...

I'll allow the final time/date for submissions to be 12 midnight of Monday June 1.

So that gives you a day and a half to finish and post your entries.

I'm entering too. I will post it on Cutandfold too as soon as I'm registered. I took a few pics on my road so it looks like a (admittedly bumpy, but no road is perfect) racetrack. The one with flash was taken by accident with flash on, but looks like a ghost racecar so I thought it was pretty cool. Sorry it's a little dark and not too good of a build. I was rushed to be able to snap a pic
outside and already started at the last minute as usual . btw this was an AWESOME build though, really fun to make and not very hard at all, this is my first legendary koolwheelz and I doubt that it is my last (and I don't mean this as a comment for an extra vote(or do I?)).

This is the first pic I've posted in a while. When summer comes, I will have more free time, so I will update all of my other builds.

You've been approved over there, sir. Did you get the email?

BTW ... due to photobucket issues, Dave is having to help me post my photos on the two entries I did. Thanks, Dave

Paperengineer...
hurry up and get those photos posted!!

Judging by the pothole problem of late, I'd say your pavement is pretty accurate.
lol

...
Just a few more hours to get your entries posted!
www.papermodelforum.com

I haven't heard any requests to lengthen the deadline, so midnight tonight it is.
Good luck to all.
Some fantastic entries so far.
Its an honour to see some of my models built and presented this way. Thanks.

I'll be posting again when its time to cast your votes and pick a winner.
But I'll need some time to set up a Voting thread and Poll.


You can find the KoolWheelz Challenge in the Contest, Challenges and Fun! section.

The KoolWheelz Challenge is offically closed.

The entry and voting thread has been created.
All the entry photos have been reposted in that thread.

Please drop by 2015 KoolWheelz Photo Challenge - VOTE HERE
and check out the entries

and cast a vote (poll) for your favorite.

I need your help to pick a winner
and I will be awarding a small prize pack.

Sorry...voting is for papermodelforum members only.
If you are not already a member, why not sign up?
Registration is free and easy.
I thought about allowing a public vote, but then it could easily get out of hand.
I want the people who count to make the decision...fellow paper modelers and forum members only.
Not all your facebook friends! LOL

Feel free to leave comments in the voting thread.
