I intend to post just before the deadline. I am replete with a Chimay ale from the Trappist monks in Belgium at the moment, and have done so because it has been a hard day. Last night I did the video for the other competition, and later tonight I hope to submit something for this one. So please don't cut it off before 2200 hrs PDT! I must sober up (it is a 9% alcohol ale), and I need to sober up a bit, and then I need to sober up. Oh, I shaid that....[hic]. Seriously, I will post near the deadline, if you please, Mystere. Edit- here it is, with seven minutes to spare! -Crandell
I don't know how to take that wink.:tb-embarrassed: I have similar lighting and camera white ballance setting issues.
Trust me I want to. I also have a few hundred pics and videos from my trip on the California Zephyr. Problem is, I'm working off my laptop for a few weeks while on vacation. No Photoshop or Premere here. :-(
To clarify for everyone, the reasons for the DQ is because the model pictured is actually an illustration. I do enjoy humor of this nature though, so had Stourbridge Lion taken a picture of an actual model and edited that into the picture (assuming the model would have a red feature since that was the topic), it would have been included in the poll.
That's fair. The Lion should get an award for funniest thing on Trainboard this year however. Cheers, Jim CCRR/Socalz44
I was thinking of something like that too. Maybe a thread like the cutting room floor but for outtakes.
All's Good It was "red" wheels on it. Actually the model doesn't exist yet (hence the illistration); but, available for Pre-Order and yes, my RR budget is now in the RED as the order has been made. I have no issues being "DQ" as the entry was a play on words purly for the laugh I thought folks might get out of it. Here is a shot of the full scale version and Yes, it's a D&H Engine.
:we2-policeman: Thanks for understanding some times we have to be the bad people when we have to DQ someone to enforce the rules. Thanks for playing along. And yes the cutting room floor is for all out takes. Who knows maybe there will be a poll for the best out takes :shade:
Congratulations to Bill Mock for taking 1st place! And congrats to Jerry (OC Engineere JD) for picking up 2nd with a similar shot. Dont forget, time is quickly running out for our August Video contests! Just one week left! Prototype Video Contest Modeling Video Contest
