I am a little disappointed at the lack of entries for this contest.

Below is my QC for the contest, hopefully it'll show you don't have to be talented at painting or sculpting to enter, just creative and perhaps have a little fun.

Lets see if we can't finish this with a bang and try to get at least a dozen entries before the close?

p.s. As staff I am making myself ineligible for the prizes\placing.

Okay, I am submitting my entry for this contest.

I wish I had some different parts to use but I worked with what I had. He as finished for about a week but have been having a hard time getting this image to upload to my photobucket at work so was a little delayed getting him posted.

Here is my entry.

Jake from Disney's Jake and the Neverland Pirates.

I gave it my best with the details. I am not good at sculpting so I just used a vest part I had. I made a chest decal but the flesh tone on his chest was faded out with the flash on the camera which I thought was turned off and still kept flashing anyway. I used a sword that sort of looked like the one he has but like I said I am not good at sculpting at that scale. I hope you all like him.

Thank you.

Quick question: so long as the character was created within the last 14 years, are internet and/or game character/persona allowed or is it strictly from movies, television or comics?

Somehow I missed this before! I should have thought of internet/video game characters earlier - yes they are definitely allowed.
