This contest is a first for us at DCC, in that we've teamed up with a well-known and extremely talented vendor to bring you this contest. That vendor is none other than *Jack Tomalin* [[link]](http://www.jacktomalin.com/ "Jacks Website") !Jack has been kind enough to sponsor a contest with us, and to offer up some great prizes!
Jack is a great vendor at DAZ, but he also has his own website at www.jacktomalin.com , where you can find some extra goodies, links to his other stores, info about him, artwork, freebies, and info on upcoming projects and releases. Please visit his website and help show him some support for all the great and wonderful things he creates for us all to use!
There's also a section on there for you to subscribe to his newsletter, which will keep you up to date on his works, sales, general information, as well as freebies and coupons. He's also kind enough to toss out some little bonuses to his subscribers for hitting certain landmark numbers, so head on over there and sign yourselves up and show Jack some love!
"The House that Jack Built"
This contest will run from today through November 15th, at 11:59pm Eastern Time.
Put down Mike and Vic, they're no use to you here! This contest is all about architecture and props! We want you to render a scene using no characters, only props, buildings, and the like. Animals are fine, just no humans or variations of them.
You'll need to use something of Jack's in your render. Don't have an item by Jack? Not a problem! Check out the freebie section of his website www.jacktomalin.com and grab yourself something - don't forget to sign up for the newsletter while you're there 
. You can also visit Jack's store at DAZ if you'd like to purchase something of his for this contest: [link] , or you can also use his products from Redhouse Studios: [link]
The usual rules apply: You must mention the contest name and DAZCreativeContests in your image description. However, in this case, we'd like you to also provide a link to the Jack Tomalin item that has been used. You can render any size image, in any software you like, and you may postwork your image any way you see fit.
So load up your Jack Tomalin products and adorn your scene with props and animals, but leave the people in the box
Now, the prizes 
Jack has been kind enough to offer up some REALLY great stuff for this one, so here we go!:
===============
First Prize: A brand new item from Jack Tomalin + a $20 Gift Certificate to DAZ3D. Curious as to what that brand new item is? Check out a little sneak peak here: [link]
Second Prize: A $20 Gift Certificate to DAZ3D
Third Prize: A $10 Gift Certificate to DAZ3D
===============
Enter as often as you'd like, but only one prize will be awarded per participant. Please submit your entries into "The House that Jack Built" folder.
Now go get out your sets & buildings, props & pieces, but leave the humans behind, and don't forget to check out www.jacktomalin.com and remember to subscribe to his newsletter for even more great stuff!
I'd also like to give a HUGE thank-you to Jack for sponsoring this contest - we here at DCC are honored and thrilled to be working with you, and we wish you all of the best in your endeavors!
