Comments:
I've always been somewhat facinated by asian culture so I had to pick the Grand Buddha at Ling Shan. Originally I wanted to take this piece a little bit further but I am happy with the end product. I wanted to bring it to life but with a somewhat stylized look. I didnt really strive for edgeflow on this piece as it being a statue would probably not have to move much, plus sometimes its way more fun to sculpt

The timing could have been better (Holidays, New Years and the Start of School)

Oh well, the next few challenges will be really cool.

The thing I find a little weird is the smile on Lord Shivas Face. He is the God of destruction, why would be smile? Maybe a smirk would be appropriate.

[heman-3d]

Nice work all of u. here is my vote

Most Faithful to original - Cory Cosper ( Good work)

overall Shiva's model is good but only problem in face (something missing in face) & hair area.
Best of luck all of U

awesome stuff.
Hey Robert, just a suggestion on the voting thing. It'd be great if there was a easier way to vote. Like maybe a poll or something. I think it might be easier on the users to take a look at the models and just click on them to vote.
=) Great stuff everyone! And congratz to the winner!

[koolnits]

Congratulations Cory Cosper! :deal:
amazing modeling and nice topology :thumbsup:
