Late Entry at planning stage.....

Ok I have started on the model -- more on that later I probably won't get it finished in time... Mean while here is the concept art.

Hey kayosIII, you're right! What a weird coincidence! Yours is starting to look great! :thumbsup:

You'd better hurry though, only a few days left!:scream:

Ok this looks like it might be my final post before the deadline and I am only just starting to get bits of the model looking the way I want them too.

I had a massive problem today with motif.... I compiled another motif app today andit ate my Realsoft in a big way... (Don't ever use Lesstif)

...Added detail to the head. there is still more I want to do with the mouth. and started on the toes.

An admirable job!

It's a pity you didn't start sooner, this may have turned out to be a really cool scene! The details were just starting to come out.

If this this is your last post, I hope you enter early for the next one and really get into it!:D

Good job kayosIII!:thumbsup:

Just figured out I got a whole bunch of extra hours duy to timezone differences...

Time to make a burden.....

My Bamboo modelling skills could be better... I don't really like it but it shows process.

If I had time there are a lot more things I would do....... The tortoise needs more work around the mouth and on the legs. The curtains look bodgey.....

Here it is....
