Hello. This is my first time entering in a challenge and I just hope to finish this before the deadline.

I will try and model 1 vehicle and 1 character from the "Spiral Zone" series, specifically the Monoseed Rimfire and Colonel Dirk Courage.

Seems like i'm the only who is doing these cartoon series. I saw this when i was a kid along with visionaries and sky commanders and I thought it would be a good challenge as well. I'm doing the japanese version instead of the U.S version so I'm in for some treat since there is not that much references lying around online.

anyways here is my current progress:http://i227.photobucket.com/albums/dd8/rockgem3d/mar04_wires.jpg

nice :buttrock:. Can't wait to see a textured one. I wonder why there were so many great cartoons before and not much now, in my opinion ehe

I finally got to update this project.

This 2 references are the only image i could find on google about the Japanese ver. monoseed rimfire.

I started blocking out the details on the cannon and the "monster" tire.

Reference pic for my monster tire. This tire is quite huge so i just modeled the tire tread and placed it in scale.

The biped is around 6 feet tall so I think everything is in scale.
