Second Place

This is not a new style, but it is one I still enjoy seeing, since I love that part of the world. This tank has been executed impeccably. Fantastic job!

Karen Randall

Even the idea isn't original, the layout is very well executed, and the skillful work with Riccardia must be commented.

Luca Galarraga

The surreal look of this tank reminds me of a science fiction setting. While so strange as to bother it is so dramatic that it draws the viewer in for further inspection. The sense of depth and prospective is awesome. The use of space void to filled perfect. It conjurs up so much imagination to the viewer that it is hard to look away! The riccia will be hard to maintain longterm.
