I like it alot. Action everywhere. Would be great if animated.
There is alot of details in this picture. Like the blue dude in the upper right corner shooting at the chickens or the green guy in the lower left side of the pic arrowing the head of the blue guy.
I like pictures like this one.
4 starz from me to.
You should call it stick wars.

Yeah i wasnt too happy with the explosion either but it is sposed to be cartoonish looking so I left it as is.
I ran out of time to continue tweaking things, i would have liked to added a few other things like bullet trails.

Now that rocks! :buttrock:
I love all the action!
This would make a wicked animation.
A friend of mine did something similar a while back. Same type of thing, simple figures fighting.
Just proves you don't need to make super fantastic models and such to make a great scene. :)

ahah i love it - great job
some of my favorites:
-the medic that is confused as to what he can possibly do for the blown apart soldier
-the other medic lifting the rock off his comrade
-the scared soldier hiding
fun stuff!
Awesome!! so many details !

Wow you put soo much detail into this! I had to stare at it for 20 mins and still don't think I got it all in. Very well done, the only crit I can give you is that you should make your stick figures joints a little more realistic for their range of movement. For great examples of stick figures with full range of motion, check out the stickfas toys, they are perfect for what you are trying to do. Still easy to model also.

Other than that, I really love this image. I'm not sure animating it is such a good idea as others have stated though. For one, it would simply be too time consuming, and second, it would take away from the level of complexity you have achieved. That being said, I do think you should frame this and enter it into an art show if you don't win this contest. You could probably sell it as art piece and be fairly succesfull. I would like to hang something like this in my living room, would make a great conversation piece for parties and I would probably walk by it every once in awhile and notice something new.

Thanks for all the comments guys :)
yeah the guy with the crow bar is freeman, i used to love bashing all the crates in HL :wip:
Dont think ill animate it, it would be alot of work. I am thinking about doing another one somtime in the future. Maybe a jungle theme or a medievil theme with guys pouring boiling oil over the side and stuff like that. But that wont happen for a while I want to do some more complex modeling first, I have never made a car so Im going to try making one (actually i have already started)
Deathcricket, you want to hang this on your wall :cool: I checked out that site but i think i will leave them as is for the moment.

This is brilliant, wouldn't it make a great CG Challenge. I want to do one.
My favorite, the guy shooting the other guys head off with a crossbow.

:applause: and :buttrock:
Really nice piece of work, nice style and really funny. I like this kind of stuff where you have tons of details hidden everywhere!
What a great idea to have oponents with a Bazooka and a crossbow or a sword!! (like on the top left!)
I don't understand what the guy near the L is doing! :eek:
Congrats mate!
Hi Slay3r,
Seen this develop on the 3D Buzz Website, although never said anything before, but this is really nice, it's come on leaps and bounds.
Excellent and good luck with the competition.

Again thanks all for comments, and also thanks to the guys over at 3d buzz that helped out along the way.
Omniscient yeah that guy was a max payne/matrix type guy.
McFly, the guy on the l is dead and hanging off the ladder by his leg wich is kinda stuck in the ladder.
