This next competition revolves around wood. Anything that can be made out of wood is what you are to model. Toys, chairs, desks, scaffolds, mannequins, shoes, etc. use your imagination!

No polygon limits, textures not required but would be very helpful.

We'll also be welcoming David Gervais to the judging panel of BiggAdd and myself(In fact, David also made the nice banner and came up with this competition!).

Alright, break out your saws and hammers...Go!

I believe a sail boat would be okay with windows and a sail. The judging will be done primarily based on the geometry of the wood work though since this competition is based on wood. I have seen many wooden model ships though, so you could also consider that option.

Just think of it as a greater challenge.

Anyway, I've decided what I'll be doing, here's my design sketch:



Good luck to everyone!

Wood carvings are made of wood aren't they? lol (so yes it would be allowed)

Only one entry per person. But you can do several WiP's and when the deadline comes choose you favorite and post it in the entry thread.

Cheers!

...what was that NES game where you played the floating head, destroying new york with your laser beam eyes?

I might add feet, though I like the design as it is. I'm working on a color scheme now, then off to modeling. Think I'll go high poly for this one. Make a nice scene render.

Wood dragon carving I hacked out today, amazing how low-poly models tend to look like rough carving?

Ok, so it's not wood yet...


Still have to pose it properly, find a decent wood texture and learn how to render in Maya.

Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace.

The models can be as simple or complex as you want. There is no minimum or maximum poly count for this contest.

Watch out: Van B just put up wood-turning lathe code over here in a thread you might not otherwise check:

If any of you are in need of a superb wood-grain texture generating free program, try this:

It's from the same outfit that makes Genetica, which TGC sells. I've used it for years.
