The winner picks the theme for next week.

If the winner doesn’t supply a theme before Thursday 22:30 GMT, the organizer will select the theme. In this case, the winner’s theme will be used the next time we are lacking a theme on Thursday 22:30 GMT. :slight_smile:

QR16: Jane’s new journey

(I created the figure in Blender for another project. The environment was created in Blender 4.3 for the challenge. I was not able to achieve the wispy look I wanted for the ghostly figure rising from the ground in Blender so I rendered the scene and figure separately and composited them in GIMP using Gaussian blur and opacity.)

A lot of AI slipping trough the cracks these days. I thought this challenges are a bit of fun, but I think using an AI PNG is unfair on the people who actually take time to model stuff

I try to keep an eye on the use of generative AI in these challenges. This time, however, I didn’t notice anything suspicious.
If I’ve missed something, just let me know and I’ll take a closer look.

And… the winner of Weekend Challenge 1127 with votes from 52.4% of the voters is… PMDesigns!
As we have a tie between entries (PMDesigns, codecontemplator), the earliest submitted entry wins.

Here’s to all the great participators…

Wanna know a secret? The new theme is right here:

I may be naive but I have not had the feeling that ai images are being submitted so I am surprised about that. :hushed:

If anyone have doubts about my entry I made the blender file available here: scene-journey-10-packed.blend

And congratulations to you, @codecontemplator fellow victor!

Maybe posting viewport renders is a good idea!

As far as I can tell, it really hasn’t happened very often.

Sound’s good to me. :slight_smile:

Almost afraid to ask but did you have Suzanne in the background all the time? :open_mouth: Did I miss a joke here? In order of disappearance… :thinking:

Of course! She was always there, lurking in the shadows. If you play with brightness and contrast, you can still find her in the final render. (The kids insisted on adding a monkey, so we did. :slight_smile: )
