NEW Forum Leader's 3D Challenge part 1

[Vizfizz]

I’m going to try my best to enter this. Not because I need another iPod, but just for the fun of the challenge.

I have one detail question, which refers to:

“05. Compositing multiple layers without additional enhancements is permitted.”

Does that imply that if you do render out to layers, you can’t actually do much with them (enhance them) once in Photoshop?

Yes… essentially what I mean is using 3rd party plugins in After Effects to achieve visuals you should be obtaining in EIAS.

I want as much of the image to be EIAS as possible.

Ok, read the details, and I have, what I feel… is the winning entry… so far, I havent seen any reference like it, so I feel it will be unique…

anyway, some great reference here: http://conceptships.blogspot.com/

[Vizfizz]

Fight! Fight! Fight!

Well, I was concerned about the timeline, but I feel I can have a rough done in time, and a final by the deadline…

CJ, if you actually take the 6000 hours you’ll need to re-make that thing just to win a contest, someone needs to come slap you upside the head.

Also, I’ll be offering you a job in a few weeks when one of our designers leaves.

I think I needed to split my post into 2 posts…

1. I am entering…

2. Some reference (unrelated to what I am doing)

Thankyou for the clarification on the Photoshop Layers question folks.

So I casually walked into this thread only to be slapped around the head by a guantlet!

Alas I won’t be rising to the challenge - like I alluded to earlier, I’m a novice here who just wants to see if he can actually complete the challenge of designing, building and texturing a model in the timeframe. If I actually finish and learn some stuff along the way that’ll be music enough to my ears (What about that for a torturous pun re: the iPod prize! )

Hi David,
I was only teasing about the gauntlet mate.

You’d best enter!
