I think I will need another day or two for painting and getting final pictures. Got the sculpting part of things done, though, and I'm going to give it a final once-over tonight, then do a couple coats of PVA.

It's so nice to see people making use of any part of that tutorial.

Practice practice practice. Sculpting skills don't come from nothing. Good luck and I hope to see it one day.
Keep up the good work with the new piece. 
Good carving Anvildude.
I'll leave it to Cam' to decide on the extension (it's his round after all). But I can say to everyone, if you have a problem with an extension being added, now's the time to voice it.
Keep it up people. One last push. The end is in sight...
...then our (the judges) work begins.

I'll get pictures up in a few, the water effects hasn't dried yet though, so lots of white where there should be clear...

Could I have a role call.
It has been very quiet here. Great to see we have people working on it. And if there are no objection I will extend to next weekend Sunday midnight. But that is a definite deadline.
Please make sure you voice an opinion if you have one. You can post here or PM me.
Fantastic work so far only a short list of entries at the moment, so all to play for.

I'd be happy for the extension. Like I said, just need it for the painting (I'm not really a miniatures painter, that's definitely going to be my weakest area, I think) and in order to source a decent camera for the final pictures.

Good entries so far. 
Good progress on the rest.
Yeah, it's best to give the water effects times to clear. We'll wait for photos.
And take your time with painting, not too much but don't rush it.

Officially 23:59 on Sunday 4th September. Usual slight flexibility for time zones applies. But that is it. Strict deadline.
Please make sure I have a PM with your entry by then.
As to so far 4 entries, all brilliant work making the prospect for next week being very difficult for us judges.

Alright, finally getting to this: Here are the WiP shots of my tiny baby contribution to the competition: Had to screw the poles to the base to make it sturdy enough. spikey bits carved from sprue (woo!) the rest is boring old bits. Chained the vat to the poles with some tiny chains I pulled from a model ship. brackets for the chains are guitar wire (specifically the low E string :p) Apologies for the phone pictures. I got my real camera back from a loan for the final shots

Fer sure, fer sure. I'm a lot like that one evil scientist in Jimmy Neutron who could never finish anything. These little victories are so worth it.

Well done everyone. A nice selection of entries.
The hard work, for you, has paid off and you have been rewarded with another lovely piece of terrain.
The hard work, for us judges, now begins.

And to keep you all busy while you wait (and the judges slack off on the job), I think it'll be useful for everyone if we have a discussion on the various techniques used to create your chosen fluids.
What did you use and how did you use it?
What did you like about your technique?
What would you change for next time?
Any useful tips you found out and would like to share with the community?

I love using Water Effects, from Woodland Scenics http://woodlandscenics.woodlandscenics.com/show/item/C1212 I also used a little of their Realistic Water, it's very easy to use, not to mention really fun
I like that you can really emulate wild water, and that it doesn't shrink, just a really great product overall, and a tube will last quite a while
I have only one complaint, and that is the fact it needs hot, dry conditions to cure probably, I ended up putting my entry in front of an electric heater after nearly a week of waiting for it clear up 
Tips, don't use nice sculpting tools on it, it's a bitch to clean off, toothpicks and similar objects are best, also, for long drops use a piece of plastic wrap as a base, otherwise it will collapse...
Both Water Effects and Realistic Water are water based, so you can tint them with gw paints and get some fun effects
