Well entering a competition that is new to you, and starting off with sarcasm from the start isn’t smooth.

I forgive you for having an opinion, but your opinions hold greater merit when represented in an adult manner. If you working on today’s hardware, then that means you’ve probably worked on the ‘past’ hardware, in whichcase, just go back and find those ‘past’ skills and reapply them again.

Is there any way we can get all the non #8 posts archived? it would make it easier to concentrate on the actual participants of our little game.

Also wouldn’t it be cool if going forward entering required a post to this thread with a link to your entry? That way any of us who are subscribed to the main contest thread would be notified every time a new contestant joined the fray…

just a thought.

#64

I’d like to join if I may. I think I’ll do Anubus, the Egyptian god of death. I figure he’s probably been in a dozen movies / games but I’ll try to do my own interpretation of the character.

#65

Alright, so in the rules it mentions from movie or comic book, however someone mentioned Akuma… so does that imply that we can do game characters as well?

I’m thinking more along the lines of something from SNES games, not something that has been poly modeled from current games, if thats any help to the matter.

#66

Akuma would be great to model, also Evil Ryu. The question is, would it be allowed?

EDIT: Akuma has been in a movie before; Street Fighter 2 the movie(animated one, not the chessy live action film). So i guess he is fair game :wink: I think im gonna work on Akuma than! need to find some reference pic first.

#67

hehe, good job Bartek|3D, that’s the link :beer:

To settle the poly argument, 3k is a good number, not too high, that is good for combining with normal maps. While Super-high poly models are probably coming in the next-gen consoles, there’s a certain skill required for lower count models. If you want LOTS of characters, like with an RTS, you have to shoot even lower (Warcraft 3 character counts are in the hundreds…)

On top of all that, by some skewing of fate, I get to run this comp, so I got to choose. If you win, you can make the next count as high as you want. There’s been alot of discussion on this topic in every game art comp, but keep in mind, this count is twice as high as the last competition’s!

#72

I’m leaving tomorrow morning for Austin - the MassiveBlack.com/ConceptArt.org CON. It’s gonna be awesome. Everything seems to be running pretty smooth, here, but I’ll try to check in, if I can find an open WiFi. I should be back Monday or Tuesday. Keep crankin’, guys and gals…

#73

soo i was wondering.
Is it okay to do anime movie characters?
Or anime series…

Its almost like comics soo… ?

Manga would be okay too right?

Hope someone can answer my question.
Tnx

#74

If movies are ok, then yeah of course…and manga is(are?) comics…

Tho i have nothing to do with this contest thats my thoughts at least.

#75

Yeah, sure. No prob.

~Austin is hot. We are all cooking.

#76

Oh yeah, forgot to ask this earlier Lekku - what images do we have to submit for the comp? How many of each?

#77

Hi, Im new to the unofficial game art challange and i had a question.I was going to do venom but someone snagged it before i could , can i still do venom or should i change to something else?

    -thank you Chad Fraser
#78

sorry but ya gotta change, try carnage, the leaner, meaner version of venom
edit: never mind, i see carnage was already taken how about the giant plant in “little shop of horrors”, or better yet Dr. Frankenfurter from “rocky horror picture show”

#79

I’ts not that hard to model under 3000 man.

#80

I created a thread for my entry, but it was deleted. Did I do something wrong?

[edit]
Scratch that…it’s there now.
