Okay, here's a question that may or may not be important, but does the bosse's environtment polys count toward the 2500 poly limit, or does the environment get its own 2500 polys,too?
P.S. I like the model of the week idea.

Archdemon Gadeon.
Yeah, I know I'm just bursting with creativity by making a big dragon a boss( yeah im being sarcastic), but i still think it looks cool.
Still gotta add teeth and other little tweaks(like a texture, haha) but i'm just about done really.

And be package specific if you want help...

@ Keemo1000

Glad you like it And yeah, as greenlig said, i was using Googles SketchUp, and it jus happens to be a few of the textures i used on him, to give him that effect. Tho its a REALLY basic program. But not to shabby for low pol designs.. and i havnt figured out how to texture map it yet.

Oh, and Higgins . .Ur Ent rocks!

Quote: "Sounds like an awesome idea, just for the record its jimmy urine not jonny :p.
Also above you said model of the week and then you said model of the month, personally I think a model of the week would be better, theres almost always a WIP or two on the forum, and it would provide a sort of smaller 'contest' type thing for people who don't want a theme, and just want to be recogized for their work on a personal project."

My mistake about the urine thing. Weekly, is fair, glad you like the idea.

Quote: "dont go down there! its not safe!

I think model of the week would be excellent!

Except you cant pay the judges to pick you every time"


Lol, yeah, but you would be suprised, there are quite a few decent people on the FPSC forums, its just they prefer to go onto one of the member's forums elsewhere (where my tutorials are now stored, but I'll get to that once I've got plenty of new ones ) As for bribary, I'm like chief Wiggum on the Simpson's 'What does my badge say? Cash bribes only.' But seriously, it is something that is near impossible to cheat with
Thanks.



Nice WIP's from everyone. Higgins, I think Zone Alarm is blocking your image site, however my trial ends in two days (As my code no longer works...expired April supposedly )

Seems the contest has been paused while I was away, please start creating some entries and well once I've got up to date with everything back here, I'll come and end it.

There are, the stickied thread right at the top of 3D chat is always updated with the current contest, which is why I always link to that as the 'rules and regulations' on the very first post I make in the WIP thread, also, the first post in the WIP thread contains other information that you should read when starting if you need to know stuff.

The deadline should have been away, I did further up ask for the people I had reply to the thread when I was asking for extra's, but its obvious no one caught wind of that, but don't worry, at least now you've got more time to work on it. I'll see whats going down as to parties to results day (I know I was invited to a part last week, but I was on holiday, shame really, I missed out on getting drunk and looking like an idiot ) and the status of all me friends before I recreate the next day and sort all out.

Quote: "Current contest:
***Favourite Game Character Contest****:
Contest Rules:

Recreate your favourite game character into a low poly game engine ready format. It can be any game character, 2D or 3D, so if you would rather do a representation of A like to the past Link rather than a Wind Waker link, by all means do so.

Only manditory rule is the poly count;
Max poly count - 1500 (it may seem small, but its good for games, which is the idea)

Check out the WIP thread for more details on some of the more preferred requirements (but are not maditory)
"


It doesnt tell you about the current contest.

I just noticed the dead line date, seems like every one missed out on entering it this time then, no one wins.

Thats odd...I did update it, it must have been something with my connection to the internet and it didn't actually post the data. That is strange, I'll sort that out tomorrow, when I have more time. Sorry about that.

No they're not, it appears that the only mistake is that the contest description hasn't been updated, when I look at it I can see why, I sort of set the contest in sections, first I insert the details, before deciding on the date, I just apply the given requirements (obviously where the mistake happened) then I create the threads and provide the links between them, then add the thread links to the main thread and then I decide the date, I obviously didn't notice that mistake when doing so, however I did put the same requirements I did in the post that didn't edit into the WIP thread requirements. What you. What you need to know is there, apologies for the mix up, all of the info is availible, just not all of it in all of the places needed.

But its past the submitting stage, it says to post the image on the 17th, its the 20th now and no one has submitted an image. So does this mean every one missed out on entering?

No, while I was away I asked for this to be maintained, but looks like no one did take off for me, to end it etc. so it is still running, I'm going to let people to have a chance to enter.

@all, anyone who has started, you may continue, once I start seeing getting back to it, I'll reschedule the dates.

Well I was hoping for more people to come back to work on their work in progresses, there was a deadline, but literally everyone missed it as nobody took over while I was away, once I do have enough promise of people entering, I'll reset the due in date. If nobody does, I'll sadly have to call this a dud and start a new contest.

I dont know what to model for the scene and because its not a paid job, just some fun, I dont have any drive to do it. I might just enter him next to a crate and that will be that.

from the looks of things, there is a start to a scene, a bit of terrian, a basic cave entrance, all stuff that is relative quick and easy enough to do, or just a bench by him with some other simple accessories.

hey mucky muck, how did you get the renderer not to mess up with the transparent colors on the jets of that mech of yours? Right now i'm trying to get teeth and some hair on my dragon, but dark basic always messes it up. observe
