THE CHALLENGE:___________________________
Sculpt, in a period of 1 month and two weeks, one or more 3D representations of one or more vehicles based on extensive research… For this challenge, attention to detail an imagination are essential.
The idea of this “mini-challenge” is to simulate an impossible deadline for a project. The artists will have at their discretion how detailed the models they will be working on, what program they will be using, the amount of models, and if the models will be shaded/ rigged. But the model will have to be original creation based on EXTENSIVE research.
At the end of the challenge the final model will have to look like a scene that we might see in a cg movie or a commercial.
EVALUATION CRITERIA:
Detailed RESEARCH, and attention to detail are key for ALL entries. Please before doing an entry do your homework.
The best model will be selected by an open vote
for these categories:
◦BEST ORIGINAL INTERPRETATION OF ESTABLISHED VEHICLE
◦BEST WIP
◦BEST CAR DETAIL
◦BEST DIORAMA

and the big one of course:◦BEST MODEL
The winner will get bragging rights and a small banner
designed by me.
