Have an idea ready... went to craft store and hardware store and am investing about 45 dollars on this challenge...
Will be completely manual ... hope the final product will turn out as well as I "picture" it... but if not it's still sure to be fun trying!

Are you building a bridge replica? :O
Just so you're aware, I tried making a 3D model last week, and getting the angle of the camera right was nigh impossible, and didn't make sense with some of the lines either.

I have to create and submit real early this week. :)
So here it goes for the bridge.
The thought was ....movie.....then it turned more into a tv-series title. :P

I'll have my brother in law help me do it in a few weeks at a fraction of the cost.
Will require building a shadow box.

Here's my entry.I wanted to use Godzilla as first idea but it was used and I didn't want to use the same idea as another member.
I couldn't think of anything else so i used the sky from the album Brave New World as something extra.

I like that you made it into a more medival bridge with wood and stones. Great creativity!

I bet that bridge sells for a lot of money! :) I like how you highlighted only some of the lines to make it feel more reflective.

Because of DST, I think we can extend the Deadline by one hour, so it ends at the same time as normal.

No, I just put it in the book to flatten the pages, yes my submission is several pages thick, you just can't really tell :P, since some parts were curled due to colouring.
Comment has been collapsed.
That's a huge book!
Oh wait, are all the bridge details cut out? Can't tell because of the quality, but now that I look at it you it feels as if the shadows says it is.
Comment has been collapsed.
Around 52cmx40cm.
It is 7 layers:
- normal page
- sky cut out
- +mountains cut out
- +back tower and water cut out
- +bridge part between the 2 towers

It's a shame it's so hard to see it, that is impressive work!
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, camera battery was dead and can't take pictures when it is recharging, so I had to use the tablet, which does not have a camera at the back. :P
I'll try to take a better picture later.

Where: San Francisco, California
What: The Golden Gate Bridge
Interesting facts:
The Golden Gate Bridge was completed on May 27, 1937. Over 200,000 people walked the entire length of the bridge, (1.7 miles!) to celebrate its grand opening.
The cables are actually 27,572 individual tiny wires spun together. More than 80,000 miles of wire were used to make the cables. The two main cables are each 3 feet in diameter.
The paint used for the bridge was chosen to match the colors of the hills in Marin County.
The bridge is one of the most widely recognized bridges in the world and a true symbol of San Francisco.
The bridge is the most photographed bridge in the world
GOOD LUCK on the challenge! Create for us some breath-taking Pictures of the The Golden Gate Bridge for some awesome GA wins!
