Folks I know I am starting to sound like a broken record here, but posting a picture in here does not mean you are entered. You need to pm or email me one picture of your choice (make it a group picture if you have more than one figure) and then make sure you see it show up in the voting thread. I am trying to stay on top of this daily so you should know no later than the end of the day if your figure is entered. I see a lot of great customs in here that haven't yet sent me an image to use for the official entry.

Hey Shawn, my group pic/official entry should be coming shortly.  Sorry about the delay, my daughter decided to hide the USB cable for my camera and I just found it this morning.  Gotta love kids.

Hopefully I can get a few more done before the deadline, but for now I present Jedi Master and the head of Temple Security Cin Drallig and a Jedi Temple Guardian!

See if any hobby stores in your area sell Plastruct products.  They make 2.4 mm diameter clear, fluorescent tinted plastic rods which make great custom lightsabers.  Just give the rod a really fine sanding, and they catch the light and seem to glow.  Catalogue # FARG-3H for yellow green.  They come in blue, red and yellow.  Sorry, I dont have a link.

Folks, you need to get your contest picture to me via pm or email, not here, by mid-night tonight.

I still have folks who have shown us work in progress pictures here, but have not yet sent in their final entry voting picture.  :'(

Ok, I am officially locking this down till after the vote is over.

I hope everyone sent me a picture they wanted me to use for the voting thread. Good luck to all and give me some time, but I hope to have the voting thread live by this afternoon.
