THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE:

ARROGANT CLERK PLANT MALE
DEADLINE EXTENDED TO: OCTOBER 14, 2009 - 11:59pm

THE RULES

1. Each challenge is 1 week long. It will start every Thursday morning, and will end the next Wednesday night at 11:59pm. If no one does the week's challenge, it will continue into the following week(s), until someone submits something for that challenge.

2. You can use any software package(s) that you want to build your character, but it must be built in 3D. If you have done a drawing of your character, you can only submit it with you 3D image.

3. NO LATE ENTRIES will be allowed. So, if you're not completely finished by Wednesday night, just post whatever you have before the deadline. This is a timed challenge, so to make things fair, if you post a late entry, it will have to be removed.

4. Each character will be concocted from a list of descriptive words from the following 4 categories: Adjective, Profession, Character, and Gender. A word will be randomly and blindly picked from each category and put together to form the character that will be worked on that week.

5. For now, there will be no poly or texture limitations on any of the characters. Later on, there will be challenges with various limits and restrictions.

6. Final delivery can be an image or animation. If you’d like to post your model and textures for people to look at, there will be a way provided.

7. All art needs to be your own property and not infringe on protected material. You can also use any pre-existing models or textures that you have previously built - as long as you own the rights.

Fish Patrol

This challenge has been one of my favorites, so far. I actually had something to post last week, but when I saw that nobody else posted, I thought I would take the extra week to just tweak this thing like crazy and add some things that I've wanted to do for these challenges.

I decided to make this fish an officer/squad car hybrid. I gave her the colors of a police car (I tried to make the top fin look like red & blue police lights), and then gave her a classic bobby hat. With her starfish hat badge, she's ready for a night of sea patrol.

beginner - rip away

I am very new to 3D. I am not very good at it (yet?) but I am very interested in learning. Ryan let me know that this was a place where I could learn how to be better at it. Because I am very new at this, I only did the modeling and a little bit with materials (it's all I've learned so far). For future challenges, I would like to learn UVing, texturing, and animation.

Obviously this isn't near as good as anything anybody else on here has done but I would be very grateful for your feedback. Please don't worry about hurting my feelings - I have a very tough shell. :)
