Congrats to Mukul.ar, who trounced the opposition, with a staggering 59 votes in the Speed Modeling competition. The theme of this challenge was ‘Camping’ and Mukul made a very elegant tent in under 30 minutes. A deserved win and the honour of wearing the Purple Challenge Tag until the next usurper.
