cool! I vote for it! I just think there are too many characters considering the time frame of this challanges, maybe only one or no characters at all would be preferable.

#583

@zrainish : That’s a nice model to light. I vote for that too.

Cheers…

#584

i agree, you can count my vote also

#585

Ok then
I’m not sure how it usually works but it seems like alot of time
without a challange, or a reply from one of the forum leaders…
what should be then next step here ?

#586

Sorry I haven’t been around, life’s been a little hectic the past few months. I’ll gladly use the scene provided if you would like to. I’ll take a look at the model and possibly get the challenge started this weekend.

For a future challenge I’d like to second the idea of an underwater scene!
(provided someone can donate such scene)
I also love the ‘4 scripts’ idea.
Should we ever dare to light a human head, I can donate one …

#591

My idea: Make this challenge a Real Challenge. I think this challenge haven’t any incentives if we compare it to the past challenges,in which there was Jeremy Birn as sort of Judge.
The best images were showed in his homepage,and I think it was a sort of incentive:“my image on the homepage on one of the great lighters in the world?”, is not true?
What about now? In think lighting challenge have become simple WIP Threads.
By the way, this is only my opinion…
Cheers,
Mirco

Hi Mirco,
For me the incentive of the challenge is to learn, get feedback and have fun…
That being said, I’m sure there are people who share your opinion…

Any idea on when a new challenge might be starting? As for suggestions, maybe something epicly large, scale is always a good lighting challenge. Examples, the giant ring around the planet in Halo, inside a moon sized spaceship, looking up out of the grand canyon etc. etc.

I like idea. I think we could also all benefit from lighting a 3D scene/objects within a live action footage.

#596

Hi All…

Me to have got some ideas for next challenge… see if you guys like it and someone could provide the 3d models for it… it could be a great challenge…

1- Tunnels

2-Subways


#597

Like the subway idea :slight_smile:

But as you pointed out it all depends on somewone making a model available. Crossing my fingers for a good new challenge, I think I might have time to join this one :bounce:

#598

Hey Guys,

Hoping to start one next weekend if all goes according to plan. It’s going to be a good one!

#599

A subway environment sounds like a great idea for a challenge. Let me know if someone would like to model it.

#600

We should get an arrangement with some modelers on the forum doing really amazing models in modelling challengues (Gusteau’s Kitchen!! Amazing) . As a ligher It’s really hard to me to find better challenge than that.

I guess it´s not that easy. Shame :slight_smile: . Anyway, I hope someone find time to model something nice.

Thanks for your plenty effort.
