SPEEDPAINTING CHALLENGE nr. 21

[Michael]

This one I think will be really interesting.


"The Kelngh - the most exciting game ever!" - The Star

"Whatever planet you come from - you need to see The Show! The Klengh will take you on the another level of excitement!" - Klingonian Day

"Athskhn, Klengh DOOOSPTH!" - Ashark's News


"Two teams. Ten players. Ten boost-boards, similiar to the ones used in alike ancient sport called "surfing" - two engines attached on the back of the board, gravity module on the bottom of it... we won't give the technical specifications here, you can buy the holo-book in every control station with the Empire's logo and learn all that you desire to know. The players are hovering inside the 30 per 30 meter sphere, made of "italic material" - transparent only for the observers from the outside - with two holes on the opposite sides. The teams need to put the metal ball inside it. Yes, they play with metal ball, that can be used for knocking out the opponents. No worries, our players are 100% trained professionals, dressed in power suits - they almost feel no pain. The suits absorb the hit energy, generating eletrical charge, that paralyses hit area. The teams collaborate to "shoot" 20 "goals" - when they do, the game is over. Whoever shoots them first - wins. But that's not as easy as it sounds - the hole is 4 inches bigger than the ball itself. And the opposite team will do EVERYTHING to stop the opponents from winning."

"Thank you, Andy. Let's now go to the Sphere, where we'll watch live transmission of the Galaxy Cup Finals! But first ... a minute to our sponsors. Don't go away."

This weeks challenge will be to paint a scene from the finals, whether it's shooting a goal, knocking out the opponent or two team line up before the match starts. Think of the action, dynamism of the shot, perspective...

Remember - the prize for winning the Challenge is 3D Total Texture CD of your choice.

Deadline - Wednesday the next week - 1,5 week of time. Post your WIPs for constructive critique, give your opinions and... have fun.

GO!!

[RBL]

Post your WIPs???

Is this a speedpainting comp or a painting one comp? What´s the maximum time we should take to do an speedpaint?

[Xtreme™]

michael - 3dt, give us some example for it, ermmm... i'm having trouble with english hehe...

RBL, hmm...i guess what michael trying to say is, to get people not being cheated...so we should post our progress until it finish *we can see how we works (just guessing, dont know for sure )...and the rules are in Speedpainting Challenge Rules section in first page of speedpainting challenges forum ...

wokey everyone good luck with the challenge

--- cheers ---

[Michael]

Post your WIPs if you want to, that should be. If your timeframe allows that. You can also post the finished ones as we did till now, too.

The time - that all depends on the complexity of the scene. Ryan Church is making a speedy sketch in two hours. But generally three, maximum four hours per sketch.

[RBL]

Hmmm... OK. I thought that with wips you meant, skeches, designs or ideas before the final one.

I think that it would be necessary in this comp. The brief is too big to keep in mind and draw it in one time.

Good luck, anyway.

[ROB]

So Michael the "italic material" can that Bold or Regular? lol, I guess you meant Metallic.
These guys must need balls of steel to play, Ha Ha!
Ok enough puns for now, The description reminds me of the Blitzball game in Final Fantasy X.
Anyhow, I will try to get something in this week, I've been so lazy lately with doing the speed challenges! All the best Guys and Gals!

[Michael]

RBL - Yeah, I meant the same WIPs you meant That is more complex scene, so we can make the timeframe a bit larger. You can post WIPs.

The maximum time - I think more than enough for a sketch, colouring and touching up - six hours.

ROB - itallic - like those itallic or italian mirrors, that are in the interrogation rooms - you see your reflection, but it's transparent from the other side. You don't need to visualise this or put onto your paintings - it's just an info, how the spectators are capable of watching the Show.


Too complicated?

[Drakala]

I demand a recount!! My drawing was the latest one!... I won! ...Haven't I?...

Ok but this time I'll think of something really fantastic!!!

Your forevermore pal

Drakala

[ROB]

Ahhh itallic.
I dont think it will be that hard :S
Well here's a bit of a reference of what the sphere may look like.

[CHK]

Aaarrr, ...Me first!!!

[Michael]

There you go! Really cool! Nice design, I looove the boards.

You don't need to make the sphere transparent from the inside, guys. It was just an idea. If it complicates things for you - drop it! Althought CHK did it pretty well

[retard]
