               <looking interested...>

I took it the way _six did.  I certainly intend to release The Crone with Sylvi'a's other 3 aspects when I have something a lot more comprehensive put together.

note: the admonishment to not release separately comes *after* the rules list. It sounds to me more like a common sense admonishment... don't flood the vault with duplicates.

If there is a problem with that, I'd have to respectfully withdraw The Eater of the Dead from the CCC.

<...and concerned>

I always assumed it was just that they must not be separately available during or immediately after the challenge...

This.  The challenge only really makes sense in this context.  I like the thought of server ops/module makers/whoever opening up each month's challenge hak like a little present and seeing what content might be a good fit for thier story- maybe even be introduced to the work of a new custom content maker they hadn't seen before.

On the other hand, I can't imagine it would be a problem to post a link to a WIP (say, in the challenge thread) so people can test it out.  With things like scripts, creature models or complex placeables, being able to get feedback about any errors would be invaluable.  It would be such a pain for everybody involved to submit something only to find that it has a serious error that needs correcting after the pack hits the Vault.  Probably not a big deal for most of the content submitted but for some things I could really see that being an important tool in the creaiton process. 

I've been kicking around an idea or two which cover ground I'm not familiar with and getting feedback early would be a huge help.

I think it's reasonable to ask that anyone who evaluates such content would refrain from using the material in a work until the CCC hak is uploaded to the Vault, though.

Great work so far, everyone!

               Warning - pedantism alert.

@Jenna WSI - don't you mean Frankenstein's Monster (or just the monster) as Frankenstein in Mary Shelly's Novel was the creator of the creature.

                <not foolin'...>

I haven't bump-mapped the elephant skin or orange peel yet (to age her), but She's scary enough to make me grin :-) In nervousness...

The Eater of the Dead

Still to do:
 - Finish aging the face
 - Refine skin foliage (branches)
 - Replace bones with wooden branches
 - Move heart down to chakra and reform into more gem-like shape
 - Replace "flower" placeholders with proper geometry (Crown of Thorns)
 - Add mantle (shoulder) foliage.
 - Remap hands

Then I'll start on her anims, concentrating on:
 - Appear (climbing up out of the ground)
 - Disappear (collapsing into a heap and being absorbed by the ground)
 - Pause (various) for some entertaining things while you watch :-)

Already have, it's just not showing up properly... You have to use a re-located area transition door but it works ok. The skull is a placeable so it can be multi tileset. The footpath is animated and appears as the jaws open.
