Submissions only.
Deadline is February 15th so make sure you’ll enter in time!
Only Judges will post their comments along with their scores.
Please make all images no larger than 800x600
You’re NOT allowed to post more than 5 pictures per post and one post per user. I recommend you to compile everything to a big collage (any collage can be at a higher resolution than 800x600).
Post the following info along with your entry:
1.) Describe the model. Which game it comes from and what’s your vision of that character is.
Give the proper specifications aswell:
Polycount (triangels, not quads)
Texture resolution
Number of maps used
2.) Reference Images used. If you used more than one and would to share those, too, then give us a URL link so the thread doesn’t get clogged.
3.) 3 Orthogonal views of the flat-shaded (non-smooth) model with wireframe. A screenshot from any 3 of the following views will work front/back/side/perspective. They should be compiled in to one image(like a collage), this image can be at a higher resolution than 800x600 but not larger than 1024x768.
NOTE: Make sure you hide anything in the scene that might obscure the view of your model. And make sure that only the default viewport light is lighting the scene. No fancy pants colored lights!
4.) 1 Perspective shot of your smooth shaded model with textures applied or a collage of different views.
5.) Show us the texture(s) for the character.
6.) Beauty Render. Show us what you’ve got and make it as pretty as you can. Posing, fancy lights, etc, etc.
Judges:
Judging will be based on the following:
Polygon density/topology - How well are the polies used? Are certain areas higher/lower poly than others?
UVW Mapping - Good use of texture space? And is the texture resolution justified? Any strange stretchin/warping visible on the model?
Texturing - How much of the work does the texture do? Is it painted well?
Appeal - How does the end result look? Was it executed well? Both technically and aesthetically.
If any of the judges want to add more comments, feel freeeeee.

Good luck!
