Good luck


Yes, I made a big block of ice with the ball inside. Then I used water to melt it.

Thanks for the comment, I like very much how you describe the score you're giving.

The blown highlights are distracting perhaps?

This would be a fasinating image if the focus were dead on

The brightspot is distracting. But, I do like the fact you went in an unorthodox direction.

We all know that this is a metal challenge. Excluding the word "metal" would reflect a differant perspective, and strengthen the title.
