For the last 10 days contestants have been creating miniature renditions of mythic and fictional lands. We gave them 2300 sq.m. of terraformable land and 1000 prims, and look what they created!

Voting for the contest is ongoing in Zoe until Weds 2/9 at midnight. Drop by Zoe (112,76) for a ballot, and check out some amazing builds.

I am extremely impressed by the work and the imagination everyone showed.

It must be seen to be believed!

These are great shots, but really dont do any of the builds justice.
You just gotta go and see them.

I came in second, though Olmy said it was close. Dang, I shoulda stuffed the voting box with my multitudinous alts! :D

Anyway, now that its over, I can post some pics without looking like I'm begging for votes... The cool thing is, even though I came in second, I would have picked the same prize even if I had won, so its all good! Congrats on the win, Cap! :D Atlantis was awesome!

First pic is an overview of the entire build.
Second is a look at Sgt. Charming's castle.
Third is Sgt. Charming busting the Big Bad Wolf at the little pig's house.
Fourth is Cinderella with only one slipper.

And here's a few more pics. I had a lot going on in my build. :)

First is that juvenile delinquent Jack with his ill gotten gains heading down the beanstalk. ;)
Then Little Red and Grandma talking to Officer Woodsman about the recent wolf assault.
Next up is the Gingerbread House that Hansel and Gretel are tempted by.
And sadly, another delinquent child, this one being chased for invading the nice Bear home.

Okay, last ones, I promise! :D

There's some vertically challenged miners returning from a hard day's work...
The somewhat morbid display in front of said miners' house...
Rapunzel letting it all hang out...
And the tragic result of that ne'er-do-well Jack's misadventures.
