Often when delving into the Clockworks I find myself needing to stop slaying monsters in order to grab something to eat. This is an unacceptable break in the action. Clearly there's only one solution, I need to be able to eat the monsters after they're dispatched.

Your task is to create a sculpture of the monster of your choice using food! Let your creativity run wild. You can build anything from a macaroni mender to a zombie out of beets and mashed potatoes! You're limited only to your imagination. Any food item may be used, but the entire thing must be edible. You'll then submit your entry for the judges in the entry thread here: http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/55466. (Please refer to the submission guidelines below.)

Creations need to be of a monster found in SK. You can find a list of them here: http://wiki.spiralknights.com/Monster . Each family will have separate judging and earn separate prizes. This way we can hand out even more shiny loot.

Deadline: Deadline for entries is 6/6 at 11:59 PM game time.

Prizes: There will be a winner for *each* monster family. Winners will be able to pick between a 30 day elevator pass or a pocket monster (Chroma Whelp, Love Puppy, and Mewkat ). Second and third place for each family will receive a silver key.

Submission Guidelines:

- Create a sculpture depicting a monster in the game.

- No items can be used that are not edible and safe for human consumption. So don't use toothpicks as a support structure, but pretzel sticks are fine. A flat non-food item, such as a piece of cardboard or plate, is allowed for use as a base for your sculpture. Feel free to use anything non-food you like to help shape, mold, or sculpt your project so long as it is removed before your pictures are taken.

- Take at least 3 photos of the sculpture. 2 should be of your final project to capture different angles and perhaps special details. This helps the judges see more of your work. 1 should be a progress picture. This helps judges determine that you did create it rather than doing a Google search.

- Host your photos online at a site such as imageshack or photobucket.

- Post your entry in the entry thread. http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/55466

- Your entry post should follow the template below below. (feel free to copy it and just fill in your info).

- You may enter a sculpture for each monster family, but may only win one prize. If you choose to create more than one entry, please post all of them in the same post.

- Deadline for entries is 6/6 at 11:59 PM game time.

Q&A:
I'll be keeping this area updated with important questions asked in the thread.

Q: Can I use items that aren't edible, but are part of the edible item. For example banana peels?
A: No. If people don't typically consume it, don't use it. I don't know anyone that eats banana peel, yet they do eat orange zest. This means that orange peel is acceptable.

Q: May you use food that's uncooked? (Like Spaghetti Noodles)
A: Go for it. The plan is to keep your entry edible. I don't want to be so hard nosed about it that it's no fun. If you'd eat something once it's cooked, feel free to use the raw version. So no toothpicks to hold it up (I suggest pretzel sticks).

Q: May you use glue to stick the food together?
A: No. I suggest using a food substance for your glue. Royal icing or honey would be good examples.

Q: Can we use Playdough?
A: No. That's not considered food even if I did eat it as a child.

Q: Do we DRAW a sculpture of our edible monster? Or do I ask permission to use my mommy's food to make a monster out of real life items like broccoli or what not? Question here is drawing or IRL touchable holdable sculpture?
A: You need to make the item out of the actual food.

Q: Are drones in any category of monster that I can make? (considering that there are as many types of drones as there are beasts, its not out of the question...)
A: For simplicity sakes, we're not going to be including drones in this event.

Q: What family is Lord Vanaduke in?
A: For the purpose of this event, we'll consider him a fiend.

Q: On the issue of pedestals etc.... am I allowed to hang my sculpture with a non food item if necessary? Per say, if I made a silkwing/griever/flying zombie, would I be able to hang it with fishing wire to make it float? Considering that plates are legit as stands.
A: That sounds fine.

Q: Do we have to accept a prize? Or could the winner reject his/her 30 day elevator pass/pocket monster?
A: Nope, but rejected pocket monsters get sad.

Q: Must it be 3D? I've done some pretty cool "drawings" with melted chocolate before, but the general wording seems to settle on sculptures. Just figured I'd ask. :)
A: 2D is fine.
