3d Art Freebie Challenge----February:"EleMENtary, my dear Watson!" ( entries)

mjc1016

This month, break out your deerstalkers and pipes.  It's not only emphasis on the men, but with a bit of a twist...the most famous of sleuths, be it the novels, classic movies or modern television interpretations would all make good starting points.  Just remember, it is about the guys this time around.

"EleMENtary, my dear Watson!"

First point, the rules.  Standard rules apply, find them here.

Second point, this month the emphasis is toward men.  That doesn't mean there can't be females in the entry, but the focus should be on the males.

Third point is the prizes...

First Place: $15 store credit from DAZ3D

Second Place: $12 store credit from DAZ3D

Third Place: $8 store credit from DAZ3D

The contest ends on the 29th. (Yep, that's right there is an extra day in February, this year, it's Leap Year.)

Of course, the most important thing, have fun.

Non-entry posts will be removed.

Title: The Truth is Out of This World

The club owner told me I could find the ladies at the club by 10am. Ginger, the clubs singer, 
would be rehearsing for tonight's performances. Maggie, her manager and best friend, tended bar on  
nights Ginger worked.

One night after Gingers last show the girls left the club. They did not show the following night or call
anyone. After four days the owner reported them missing. A week later they returned to the club
with no recall of where they had been our how long they had been gone.

I call this a classic case of abduction. My partner calls it unscheduled vacation. That's why I'm in 
here and she is out canvasing the neighborhood.

Lord Ganthor

February 28, 1896: Brooklyn New York. In the early hours of the morning a delivery wagon for the Rather Good Beer Company of this city, was savagely attacked by a gang of backstreet ruffians bent on commandeering the wagon and spiriting away it's contents. The driver of said vehicle, a one Floyd McPatterson of the city, was unharmed in the occurrence. Rushing to collect the local constabulary, Mr. McPatterson returned with the police in hand only to discover the wagon in the middle of the street, the horse let loose and a number of cases of beer missing or strewn about the scene. Fearing that the perpetrators of this vile deed may strike again, the police sent word to the world famous consulting detective, Mr. Sure 'nuff Holmes to assist with the case. Within the hour, Mr. Holmes, aided by his trusty assistant Dr. Wassup (and the Doctor's faithful dog Boston) arrived on the scene and set to work. Serching the location of the crime for clues, Mr. Holmes focused, with close inspection, on a single unbroken bottle of beer left behind by the thieves. "Ah!" proclaimed Holmes. "I think I can deduce who was the criminal mastermind is behind this awful deed!" "Good heavens!" gasped Dr. Wasps. "You don't mean..."
And so begins tonight's story, DA CASES UDDA MISSIN' BEERS!

My 3rd entry continues my Sherlock Holmes theme, but this time it goes a bit sci-fi.

Window Through Time and Space

Working on a case mr. Holmes comes across this weird device, that seems to be showing things from different time and place. What would happen, if I stepped through this "window"? He thinks. Maybe it leads into a great adventure, filled with mystery. "Only one way to find out.", he thinks before stepping through and meeting the greatest detective of modern days.
