Game Art Challenge #11

#101

McFarlane recently released the McFarlane’s Monsters Series 3: Six Faces of Madness toyline. Can be found here (somewhat explicit content though).

Could be an interesting source for inspiration for some. :slight_smile:

#102

way ahead of you :wink: My design for Rasputin is heavily inspired by the face of madness :slight_smile:

#103

Some more ideas for those who haven’t started yet:

Captain Ahab
Quasimodo
Baron Wilhelm Von Leibniz
William of Orange
Musashi
Admiral Yamamoto
FDR

#104

15000K. I be in heaven:scream: . I can imagine the amount of detail I can pump on my character.
If I took part in the contest, I probably be doing Captain Kidd. A good fighting game could benefit from a badass pirate character.

Oh, well…:D.

I have seen some very good designs for this contest thus far. I expect to have a hard time deciding the top 3 when the time comes…:thumbsup:

#105

Hmm, I’m pondering doing a fighting game character based on Ghandi - but right now Im not sure if this might be seen as a bit too absurd och offensive… :shrug:

#106

sysop: no worries, I think there’s 2 Hitler being done :deal:…

wouldn’t be a problem doing Ghandi :slight_smile:

#107

Oh, well… I do find the idea (ghandi as a fighting game character) amuzing, him being a non-violence activist and all. :smiley:

#108

Can’t remember whether it was Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat but it reminds my of that guy with the stretchy arms and legs :slight_smile:

#109

:scream: yeah that character was from Street Fighter… pretty wicked character too, I mean with the stretchy arms and all, the getup was origional too.

sysop hehe have fun. :thumbsup:

#110

That was the hindu, Dhalsim.

#111

non-violence? you could have him fight in a made up style similar to Aikido…using the attackers momentum, anger and attacks against them…

on a side note, go rent Gahndi with Ben Kingsley…one of the best movies ever made…

#112

ok thought of one more possible entry after seeing the Aquatic Life commercials: Jacques Cousteau!

#113

this is really cool, and i would do it if i was good enough, but im still just learning the trade. but i sure would do something in the future.

#114

Argh, that subject seems so interesting… I think I won’t be able to resist entering it, but I’m not sure I’ll be able to finish my entry either (realised how time consuming a challenge could be with the Space Opera thing, frst challenge I tried and first I failed to finish too). So, was wondering, even if I do my best, if I can’t finish in time, am I still allowed to enter the competition ?
And the character I would like to do is Toshin Homura Taishi, a God of War, from Saiyuki, story inspired by a chinese legend. Is that ok for the challenge ?

#115

Chug - in this competition isn’t important to finish(of course is good to finish:) ) but learn and train Your abilities. You will see Your wrongs. For me the chracter is good:thumbsup: , and time … it always depends from your good will and skills. By the way if You start with idea to learn not to finish or even win everything will be great. Nobody will puinish You that you shall not finish :D.
So I think You should try, like everything if You want be the best.
Try It.:slight_smile: and You will hang it on.

#116

Hanzo…you still lurking around pal?

I hope everyone had a good holiday. Mine was only slightly devestating. It seems things have slowed down considerably compared to the excitement we all had at the beginning. There is just over a month left it seems, maybe things can pick up a bit. I’ll do my best, but I’d like some motivation from other entries. Meaning, don’t let me be the only one working. The high polycount may scare some people…but you don’t have to use that many.

Good luck everyone. Let try to make it to GAC #12 safely.

#117

Hi Everyone I have a character That I’m currently working on call Frankie That I would love to submit for this comp I have a drawn concept and have completed the pre model but with 15k man thats a modelers dream atleast for me. I will post the origin once I get the okay from u guys. Till then good luck guys and let that imagination soar.

Regards
VIGA

i have some free time and I know it’s already late, but I might still enter.
Main problem is i’m hitting a brainstorm wall. I wanna do a female character (have too many males in my portfolio) and I wanted her to be sexy (but not in the means of big boobs…etc)
And that where I’m like…uh… who in history is famous and hot? Amelie Earhart? nah. I don’t wanna do Egyptian stuff either… :confused:
Ideas?

If not, I would probably end up doing the total opposite and some fat, gross looking guy. (don’t have anything like that either) But again, who fits that billing?

#119

You and I are thinking along the same lines. A quick google search should turn up something.

I think a month is plenty of time for people to finish up. Unless they are swamped with other things. Still, I hope to see many of theses entries finished eventually.
