OK, we had votes for 8 different chops and we have a winner for both.

Bunda4th for the orange truck and cerealboxloser for the Armada. A couple simply missed the deadline.

Now, with the number of these we have done I was a tad disappointed in the quality and time spent on the majority of chops themselves. Parts too dark, parts way too exposed, bad/flat looking rims, etc. I know the pictures themselves were not the best but that's part of the challenge itself. I'm not saying all of them were this way......just not what I was expecting as the quality of the last few contests have seemed to of dropped.

The next chop will be a classic and I expect to have my socks knocked off by some of you.

Congrats Bunda and CerealBox!!

I agree that chops have slipped...I know I have not put as much effort in the last couple that I normally do.

Next one however...WATCH OUT!!

I didn't put much effort into the mud truck either. Sometimes I feel that me posting chops may discourage people from participating.

This morning I spent a bit of time working on an Armada chop and came up with this:



The color is supposed to be a Black Cherry....

That is the color I was going to go for on mine.

Yeah your chop's can be intimidating for sure. You do such a superb job. Although they can be inspiring too...so keep'em up!!

Can we do another one of these? I didn't know about them at the time but I have done both without realizing that the contests were already over.

And I really want a NICO T-shirt. ;(
