Finally got my first pull done. Wanted to do something different with the DragonFish, since it is normally big and fearsome, it's....not. And not the main focus of the render. Here's the products in case anyone is interested.
DragonFish http://www.daz3d.com/dragonfish
Morgan For Genesis http://www.daz3d.com/morgan-for-victoria-42-and-genesis
M4 Ensign http://www.daz3d.com/m4-ensign
Ruffle Bikini http://www.daz3d.com/ruffle-bikini
It took me two weeks to make that stupid fishing pole! From a rake and a piece of coiled rope. D-formers and Polygon Group editing. Will be posting a tutorial on how I did it (and of course, people who model could have zipped right along. I tried Curvy but didn't have the time to master it, and using a coiled rope meant the rope fibers were there. But UGH.

Best Catch Of The Day
Morgan is puzzled by her catch because it doesn’t look quite…normal.
Gunner isn’t puzzled at all about his catch!
Unbelievable, with all the stuff I have, I got another ocean item. Going to be interesting in combining these though.
Draw number two: (if I can get to it.)
299 Arwen
990 Deco Bed 1
3903 Terrors of the Deep Jellyfish
Not sure what I am going to use from the first one.
.
Thank you. Bigh could have made it in ten minutes with Curvy3D. Took me two weeks with a rake and a coiled rope that does NOT uncoil. I know you're popping in to my art studio thread and I will be showing screenshots of how it was done shortly :)
In case people want to know other info:

767- GenX Dress
1678 - Shayarin V4 Unimesh Fits
674 - Fairytale Collection - Sleeping Beauty
And the "Chain" rollover..., Urban Wear for M4 Unimesh Fits (mostly because I want to get this guy into SO MUCH TROUBLE...!)

Nice work, especially kitbashing the fishing pole.
Here's number 5:
OH6A Helicopter
Carnival Midway Interiors

"Throw It Back...NOW!!!"
Gunner is once again delighted by his catch.
I reused the M4 Ensign outfit. Had to use Arwen (texture), the bed, and the jellyfish. This was SO much fun! I'm done though, with Thanksgiving this week I'm out of time. I highly recommend Gunner and Morgan (I used Genesis) as they are easy to work with.
I'm sure enjoying all the artwork- thank you Totte for doing the contest.
...OK, some 24 days later and less than a week left in the month, finally (kind of like pulling teeth from a Rancor).
A lot of kitbashing and texturing in this one (seem to be on that kick lately).
Yeah was close to throwing in the towel on this month until I received a bit of inspiration from RawArt.

"Yeseree pardners, now this is more like it", Captain Donovan exclaimed loudly as he, his faithful robot companion Vera, engineer Lucy Ng, and their two somewhat bewildered passengers entered the odd looking establishment. "Y'all gonna like it as they serve the 'real stuff' here, none of that reprocessed synth slop we've been eatin' and drinkin, the last several weeks. Yep the best durn down home cookin' this side of-..."
"umm, Captain?" Lucy interrupted, "just where is 'Here'?"
"Why Ms.Ng dear", he replied, "'Here' is none other than...
...The Cafe at The Edge of Forever."
Now that was worth waiting for, Kyoto Kid!

Title: Mistress Morgan Raises the Bar
Tag: hawkonthewing#3
Mistress Morgan went to help her friends Francis and Aiko train to be real crimefighters! When she got to their training course, she was highly disappointed to find it lacking a certain something. She thought for a while as she watched them practice. She decided first, they simply must change outfits to make things more challenging. Then, she added one change to the rings to make them a teensy bit more challenging. Francis and Aiko were amazed at the results of their new training. They both were stronger and faster than ever before!
I think I might have time for this. Next pull-
884 Xurge Fantasy Ranger M4
264 Fae realm for V4
221 Dressing Room Furniture Poses
Carry forward...carry forward...think I'll do Sickleyield's Small Wraps 2 and Mistress Morgan.
.
Novica, two really fun renders, love them, and KyotoKid, that was one superb render!
....thank you Totte & Tarina Kivi.
Great stuff everybody...this has been a fun one. I think I must have subconsciously influenced by Sasje#1 in my choice to turn the Stinger (which wasn't even one of my pull items) into a toy. Barbult's cherry tree series has been very amusing, as has Novica's "Catch of the Day" series. And KyotoKid: wow, that's a cool render!

Title: KDAZ Headline News: Cherry Tree is State Fair Winner!
Thomas awoke with a start. Unicorn??? He realized he wasn't drifting down the river; he was drifting off to sleep. Thomas had to get up and get busy. The State Fair was coming to town, and he had to get his Cherry Tree ready for judging.
Next Day at the State Fair: As the media swarmed in by land and by air to get the news, Thomas' Cherry Tree was judged best of show. His disgruntled former bonsai club members fumed and pouted as Thomas was awarded the Governor's Cup. His Cherry Tree would be displayed in the Governor's Mansion, and Thomas had an open invitation to visit it any time.
....bravo. Great conclusion to a wonderful story. You tied all your submissions together incredibly well.
The expressions on the "runners up" are priceless.
...and nice to see Mr Rat got in on the festivities as well.
Your comments boost my spirits! I'm glad you enjoyed the ending and spied Mr. Rat. This one was hard to come up with something that I could use to end my story.
Title: Mistress Morgan Lends a Hand
Tag: hawkonthewing4
Mistress Morgan went to a fantasy faire, and discovered much to her dismay that the scheduled dancers were nowhere to be found. Her friend Michael was frantically searching everywhere. Mistress Morgan had a thought, "I'll bet I know just where they are!" So she hustled Michael off to where she had a hunch they would be. And she was right, there they were!
Hopefully I'll have time to finish. Next pull
233 Easy Environments Mountain Trail

799 Timeless Male Hair for Genesis
And I'll carry forward Fae Realm.
Title: Mistress Morgan at the End of the Day
Tag: hawkonthewing#5
After a busy day filled with adventures, Mistress Morgan and her friends danced down the road towards home. Looking forward to a good supper and a night's sleep, they wondered what tomorrow might bring.
...have one more coming, in the final render process. Had to keep shutting down after doing a lot of adjustments as it has ten figures.
...and it actually fits with the last one.
Going to be cutting it close here (bloody optimisation pass).
...OK, hope this makes it in in time. Was pretty sick all week, so it was hard to focus. The final idea hit me yesterday morning and I realised I would be hard pressed for time.

Will post the complete credits later.
...after a long voyage and a good home cooked dinner, Captain Donavan mentioned a little R&R was in order. After a bit of a walk he pointed to what appears to be the ruins of an ancient structure, .
"Excuse me Mr Captain", the male passenger asked. "There? That is nothing but a heap of rubble and a few standing columns."
"Ah my elegant friend," Donovan replied, "Never judge a waterin' hole by its cover".
Gesturing to the rest of the group he headed toward the tumbled down edifice. As they approached there was the sound of music statementing from one what appeared to be a stairwell leading down into the ground. The Captain smiled, "I think y'all will like this place". After descending the old but seemingly well maintained stairs they entered into a large, colorfully lit underground chamber
Donavan looked at Vera who smiled and in nodded in agreement.
"First round is on me" he announced, "Welcome to...
...The Pub that Time Forgot.
