CopyCat Round 4 – Winner(s)

LOOK INTO THEIR SOULS

When I asked the models to take a photo to feel the vibe of this girl, I did not expect the intensity that was delivered. Actually I did, what am I saying…. So its really no wonder that we ended up with a tie.

That’s right my loves!

TWO MODELS FRIGHTEN ME THE MOST!

But which two models?

AMALIE
&
HILDA

Congrats to our BEAUTIFUL???!?!? models…

Come back on Saturday morning when Round 5 photos are posted!

And as always, Love from here

CopyCat Round 3- Barbie Winner!

omg! It’s like totally Ona here! ❤️❤️

Last week I asked the models to gimmie photos of them as their favorite Barbie! They did not disappoint! Our judges struggled because of how great all the models did and not knowing which !

That alone should make each of you proud!

however, there is still that elephant in the room…

so let’s hop right in and give praise where it’s due!

Congratulations

ALASTOR!

your depiction of Barbie and the Magic of Pegasus was so spot on that the judges felt your image was the perfect representation of a Barbie girl, in an Eorzean world!

come back soon for week 4!!!

And as always, love from here…

ONA IS LATE — She had a lot of IRL Crap

So here I am giving you the results of Round 1 – FLORIDA MAN!

We got some amazing images submitted last week! So many of them made us all laugh and question the sanity of people who live in Florida but as a whole, we enjoyed our models and their efforts!

So without further “a-do” (I totally could see a Florida man spelling it that way) I present to you the winner from our first round….

DAMIEN!

Come back Saturday to see our next round!

And as always… Love from here.

November Challenge Winner 2023

I tossed out an emergency extension due to having too few votes (I never formally codified it before but I am going to next time – need at least 10 votes to have a winner in these mini challenges.)

After the extension, we broke the barrier, and the winner of the December challenge is Damien Montclair! Congratulations!

We’ll have the December challenge in a few days, and the host team is now discussing plans for 2024 contests.

Zodiac

It’s the final round for the CopyCat Cycle here at ENTM.

My amazing models have walked this road with me and for that I am grateful! But they still need YOU to vote on our final round before we can crown both week 6 winner, and the new S-Rank model for the CopyCat Cycle!

So this week I took it a little easy on them and asked for them to give me their Zodiac sign. Whatever it was, THAT is what their image needed to be of.

According to Britannica.com:
zodiac, in astronomy and astrology, a belt around the heavens extending 9° on either side of the ecliptic, the plane of Earth’s orbit and of the Sun’s apparent annual path. The orbits of the Moon and of the principal planets also lie entirely within the zodiac. The 12 astrological signs of the zodiac are each considered to occupy 1/12 (or 30°) of its great circle. These signs no longer correspond to the astronomical constellations in which the Sun actually appears. The constellations are irregular in size and shape, and the Sun regularly passes through one constellation (Ophiuchus) that is not considered a member of the zodiac.
Because most of the constellations through which the ecliptic passes represent animals, the ancient Greeks called its zone zōdiakos kyklos, “circle of animals,” or ta zōdia, “the little animals.” The size and number of zodiacal constellations varied in antiquity and became fixed only with the development of mathematical astronomy. The list below gives the constellations of the zodiac, with the dates of the Sun’s passage through them in the era when their boundaries were fixed. These dates are still used for the astrological signs, though precession of the equinoxes has shifted the constellations eastward; e.g., on January 1 the direction of the sun is now in Sagittarius instead of Capricornus. The history of the symbols is unknown; they seem to appear first in Greek manuscripts of the late Middle Ages.

Now, onto our model’s images:

Samhain – CopyCat Round 4 Winner

Spooky Scary Skeletons Send Shivers Down Your Spine.

Well last night was the culmination of our Samhain (Halloween) round! So while my kids and I were out in the torrential downpour getting stacks our amazing team of Judges were finishing their critiques and voting. Not going to lie, I passed out harder than the kids after putting their tiny butts in bed.

I’m tempted to hide their candy and pretend I ate it….

But no I won’t, instead I will crown the winner of this past week!

Our winner was…

MALKOVICH!

My family has always been in meat.

Malkovich, your image is visceral and quite frankly disturbing. Just like wartime photos, this image is one that will remain, even in times of terror peace. Which is why you have taken home the Pumpkin Crown! (It’s not official, I just made it up).

Check back next week for our 5th week of the CopyCat Cycle!

And as always, Love from here.

Renovation Cycle Round 5: “I Need a Drink”

Sometimes SE surprises us and puts really interesting items for sale from the housing merchant: the disordered wardrobe, the really cool slanted walls and even some not-so-ugly wall coverings. This week, our designers were challenged with creating a bar scene using ONLY the items acquired from the housing merchants, including the NPC’s that sell…NPC’s. AND they had to take the photo using a Sepia filter from Gpose to give an old-time effect. They were also encouraged to use extras and NPC’s to complete the immersion. This challenge proved difficult because of the limited items they could use and the limited NUMBER of items they could use! How does a designer stand out from the rest? So scroll down and see how these amazing designers accomplished the task. And be sure to vote for your favorites this week!

*Two models are missing this week, Scarleta and Desya. Scarleta will be back for the final round. Unfortunatel,y due to real life circumstances, Desya will be withdrawing. But she will be here cheering her fellow designers on!

Our guest judge this week, the wonderful, MARVELOUS Ni’ko Shae!

Host of ENTM’s Runway Cycle, winner of ENTM Classic Cycle 11, and frequent judge, Ni’ko Shae is a longtime housing enthusiast. One of Ni’ko’s biggest housing accomplishments was finally defeating the final boss: getting a couch to float over the stairwell leading to a medium house’s basement (okay, he got help doing it, but he tried for a long time!). For housing Ni’ko favours far eastern designs, plants and trees, and a healthy blend of pinks and purples (with a dash of rainbow). As a judge Ni’ko tends to favour those who think outside of the box and delivers the unexpected (though a bit of pink and purple couldn’t hurt any, now could it?). Now then, may the best decorator … win!

Renovation Cycle Round 2 Winner

We traveled to the Far East this round where our designers created rooms straight out of Kugane. But one room caught the judges’ eye with her symmetrical room structure and the subtly lit window with the fog rolling in; she beautifully captured the night in Hingashi with her build this week. Congratulations Arilyn Moonblade, the winner of round 2!

Tune in Saturday for the next round of Renovation cycle!
