ok, here is my idea btw:

i am working on an anim because i cant do it all on my own … here is the story:
a guy on a bike drives super fast, he sees 2 snail on the road but doesn’t care. he drive over the first on and kills it. the 2nd snail is really anoyed and he realizes that the bike has a leak in its fuel tank. the snail crack a match and set fire to the fuel on the ground, the fire catches up with the bike and BOOOM no more bike…
then you see the snail smiling when suddenly a bit from the bike falls on him and kills him…
i need a max user, preferably 3dsmax 8 who could do some rendering/lighting, texturing and rigging (it doesn’t have to be the same person; the more we are the better)… if your also good at making cartoon things, modeling cartoonish environments or if you just wanna help, email me or pm me (i’d rather having you emailing me at riri284@hotmail.com)
here is the guy:

here is the WIP bike:

here is the WIP Snail:

I think your idea is fine, as long as the guy is driving really fast because he’s in a race.

#30

First post, first question …

well i’m not quite sure, but …
do i break the rules if using a racecar i already animated before (no crash scene so far)?

#31

No. It just makes you lucky!

#32

I love that you even had to ask. It’s like we’re SO serious about who wins b/c they win an award image by their work! I heard they’ve striped the award from ANYONE who breaks even the slightest of rules or bi-laws. I think all we care about is seeing the coolest fx, and useing competition to help us actually finish something.

#33

I want to add to what destruct007 said.
The point of this contest ot to learn, showoff and have fun.
