Thread Naming: Your Name – The Circus
Keep all questions in this thread


Come one, come all, to the greatest show on Earth. The Threedy 3 Ring Circus has it all. Watch as the ring master man-handles authority of all these vicious beasts, Lions, Tigers, Bears, oh my. Tight rope walkers, sword swallowers, clowns. Everyone is here. We even have a balloon animal guy. Tickets are selling fast, so get yours before it's too late.

DUE DATE: July 29th, 11:59 pm GMT - SUNDAY

Idea:

Create something you would see while at a circus. This ranges from animals, all the way to performers. If you're in the mood to create an environment, this would be a great time to do so.

Poly limit:

20,000 Tris Total. You can do whatever you want with these, just don’t get carried away and don’t exceed the 20,000 Tri Limit. Remember, the limit tells you where to stop, there is no minimum, so use as much of the limit as you see fit. If 20,000 tris is too much for you, use 15,000, or 10,000. It’s ok, I wont mind.

Textures:

-1 x 2048 Color Map
-1 x 2048Reflection Map
-1 x 2048Specular Map
-1 x 2048Specular Color Map
-1 x 2048Normal Map
-1 x 2048Bump Map
-1 x 2048Opacity (transparency) Map
-1 x 2048Glow map
-1 x 2048Glossiness map.

You can not chop it up into multiple smaller textures.

Textures can be hand-painted or you can use photographic sources. Do what you do.


Pedestals/Stands:

You do not have to create one, but if you do, understand that there is no texture or tri limit. You can go as crazy as you want, or keep it basic.


Restrictions:

-Joint entries are OK for this challenge. You can work with a concept artist, that’s it. You must do all modeling yourself, that includes any and all sculpting.

-Your entry must be specifically created for this challenge. Do not use any pieces from previous personal works.

-There are no lighting restrictions.

-All Game/Render Engines are allowed.

-You must create a W.I.P Thread to show off your work in progress.

Final Pictures:

Required In The Final Post (1 post per entry):

-1 A link to your W.I.P. thread.

- 1 x Beauty shot of your subject. Feel free to put multiple angles of your subject or just one big version or your subject on this page. You are free to do whatever post effects you like on this image. Be careful how you do this though, simple is often better. It’s up to you.

- 1 x Construction shot of your subject. Feel free to put multiple wire frame shots or just one big wire frame shot on this page. It is up to you.

- 1 x Texture sheet that includes all your used sheets squeezed into "one" sheet.

whatever "race" it is, the viewer needs to be able to know it's apart of a circus.
