The Challenge Rules

1). Each challenge we'll post a subject for you to model along with a time limit on how long you should spend on it. Spend no longer than the allocated time then post a render of your model. No cheating, we are relying on your honesty here and the idea of speed modeling is to simulate a "real world" environment. If you are working on a project and asked to show a concept model you'll need to be able to get somewhere near the target in the allocated time. Your submission should be a model created especially for this challenge and not one you have stored on your hard drive. How you interpret the brief is up to you as long as the final model conforms to what we have asked for. Any images of models that do not match the brief can be removed and the poster disqualified.

2). You may enter as many times as you like as long as each model is completely new and uses no components from other entries. Entries using models which are not original will be removed and the poster disqualified.

3). Your entry may contain as many views of your model as you like and must include a clear and easy to see wireframe of the mesh before any smoothing/subdivision has been applied. Wire renders/ Cell Shaded or Screengrab wireframes are acceptable. Any wireframes we cannot see correctly will be disqualified. The key is for us to be able to see the wireframes clearly to ascertain how you modelled the subject matter.

4). You MUST include the following details with each submission:

A). Software used
B). Time spent creating the model.
C). A Clay Render of your models.

Any further information is voluntary but posts not containing the required information can be removed and the poster disqualified.

5). Post TWO images per entry which must be no larger than 1280x1024 pixels in either landscape or portrait format with a file size of no more than 195k.
1 image for your wireframes and 1 for your clay combined with a optional beauty render.
These images must be uploaded to our servers using the "browse" button on the forum reply page.
Do not link to external images files. Images larger than the maximum size or posts containing links to external images (other than for reference materials)
will be removed and the poster disqualified.

6). The creation of displacement maps, normal maps and any splines drawn out in an external program other than your modeling software are to be included in your modeling time.

7). Time spent on rendering or texturing or building a scene in which to display your model is not included in the allocated period to allow those with slower machines to participate on an even playing field. What we are looking for is the quality of the models you can produce "under pressure". If your model is not complete, you can still post it as long as it's recognizable.

8). Posting the same entry twice in a challenge is considered to be double posting and will result in a disqualification. When asked to fix a previous post due to DQ or any other reason, you must fix the first post, or delete it altogether and create a new one.

9). The Winner must email jo@3dtotal.com to claim their prize.

10). Only 1st place & 2nd place (i.e. the runner up) can claim a prize.

These rules apply to everybody taking part there will be NO exceptions!

Here is my entry: a cycling bidon. I know that my wireframes aren't "real" but since Inventor is an engineering program i does not seem to do Maya style ones, hope it's ok :halo:.

Awesome entries! Floorman, did you do that all with a displacement map or is it a bump map?

I was determined to get mine in this week. Nothing pretty from me... I am tired now. I was trying to model pretty fast to get it all done how I wanted to.

*Stand is not included in modeling time*

This is a first aid 'whiskey keg' that St. Bernard's would bring to trapped people on the mountains, the whiskey raising their body temperature until help arrived. At least, that's what I thought! Turns out the whiskey barrel was a myth that was created by a painter, who apparently invented the story and put it in his painting to create more interest. St. Bernard's were used often as rescue dogs but they never had a whiskey barrel around their necks :haha:

I really had fun with this one, turned out exactly how I wanted it even though I took way too long getting that strap right. Hopefully I can texture this, maybe tomorrow, but now it's time to sleep.

*EDIT* Updated shot to include beauty render & clay render. Did not change the model at all

Thanks sarN, yea it is just a hi-rez bump map, I was thinking of doing it as a displacement, but I was happy with the results from the bump. You have some nice modeling going on with the barrel, and I am truly disappointed to find out that there really wasn't a whiskey barrel with the St. Bernard :(
