Make your own species, robotic or organic, just make sure it is unique(no cats, dogs, humans, etc.) No polygon count or texture required(but encouraged!).

The winner of this competition will receive a $50 voucher from TGC.

Rules and regulations are, but are not limited to these:
- 1 vote per user.
- Entries submitted after the deadline are invalid. So at least get your latest work in progress submitted.
- You may not vote for your own model
- Voting is done in the format of making a post in the final entry thread "I vote for _______," or any other clear matter so there's no ambiguity.
- The Game Creators and myself(or other mod) have the final word on everything should a discrepancy arise. I personally cannot guarantee prizes for every competition, but this one is an exception, and I hope the trend will continue based on user participation.
- The winner at the end of voting will e-mail me at yellow1dbp at hotmail.com within three days their competition idea.
- Have fun with the competitions, and pay attention to any requirements the winner sets!

[added 4/13/08] - Also, if you haven't read the main rules page before, note that you cannot enter a previously created model!

Definitely try to put something together. A good chance to get into organic modelling which I really disregarded in the past.

I'll draw something, then maybe model it. I'm pretty busy, but the finish date is good.

Wait- I already know what I'd make

I'm going to have to say that the model must be created from scratch to keep all things fair. You are welcome to model a similar model, but cannot enter or use a model that has was already a work in progress prior to the competition. Thanks

I posted that on the same day i started the model, which is a few days after the compo started, so basically you have had more of a head start than me

I'm doing some concept art for my creature at the moment... Here's a link to what I got going so far.

http://www.silver-dawn.net/Adam/creature.jpg

Need to add a bunch more tentacles and a few other things to make it even more unique but it's coming along...

I'd put it in IMG tags but it's too big and someones gonna complain ^_^

I had a few ideas for water creatures when i saw this, but i started going on a random modelling spree and this one was my favourite, not the most original and it probably won't be my final design but i thought i may aswell show my face.

hahah The entries are looking great so far, guys. Have fun.

This competition made me design my first robotic character. ^^ I am very happy with it. I shall not join the competition, though.

You could join it just for fun. You also gain some experience.

Please don't quit, unless you REALLY want to, I am not an amazing modeler but I'm still competing, though I'm not sure if I can finish or not, I have *a lot* of other things I have to do right now.

Aww, cmon. Even if you don't enter, you should post your character; I always find your work quite inspirational.

90% of statistics are completely inaccurate.
