“I was a runner-up at wallaceandgromit.com, where there is a monthly competition  to make a Wallace-and-Gromit-themed ‘creation’. Youcan enter from anywhere in the world, and if you win you get a prize and a certificate signed by Nick Park
(creator of Wallace and Gromit). I have won a few of these competitions
over the years. Other users can comment on your
creations, and other animators’ comments have been especially
helpful.”
