Well folks, it's just about time for us to announce the winners of our 2022 Alien Invasion Render Contest!
This one was down to the wire! I don't think I've seen our poor judges sweat this much since the time we made them judge a Halloween contest in the 6th plane of hell ;)
As I mentioned during the close of our Fantasy contest, our Fantasy render contests, as well as the Alien Invasion AND Halloween contests have always been our biggest "WOW" contests, and this year our amazing artists really outdid themselves! There were so many awesome entries and again so many tie votes that we had to move our judges to... let's just say this contest got a bit too real for our judges as we let the Aliens take them until they could finally agree on your winners!
Needless to say, their alien overseeres did some poking and proding (and of course some probing) and even a few experiments were done, and then they finally reached their mutual decisions and were safely trasported back to their homes and thier minds wiped clean of their time.... elsewhere
So we are now ready to stop writing all of this semi useless (but hopefully entertaining) dribble and announce to you your winners....

And last but not least, as we do from time to time when an image doesn't quite make the winners circle but we feel we just HAVE to give it a spotlight, we have a special mention from us to you.
Remember, this doesn't win a prize (so make sure to go rate the image and leave some comments!) BUT we had to share what we feel captures 100% the view our judges had when there were abduc... tak... brought to their special judging area...
