Did a blog post about this new challenge and the previous one . Also I'm asking, RockyMills, Tweety, and Stwert if I can add their images in the post instead of just links to the forum. Hopefully they see this.

Sounds like a fun challenge... never actually entered one before... though followed dozens of them for years... plus I could also do with the help from the members here with my rendering skills with Maya.
