speed modelling challenge - week 56 - FireArms

Black · 21-07-2005, 04:28 AM

The rules are simple

1, Each week 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 modelling 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 will 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 but it must include a clear and easy to see wire frame of the mesh before any smoothing/subdivision has been applied. Please use a screen grab. No other method is acceptable and any "wire renders" or wireframes we can't see properly will be removed and the poster disqualified

4, You must include the following details with each submission: software used and time spent creating the model. Any further information is voluntary but posts not containg the required information will be removed and the poster disqualified.

5, Post only one image submission per entry which must be no larger than 800x600 pixels in either landscape or portrait format with a file size of no more than 100k. These images must be uploaded to our servers using the "browse" button on the forum reply page. Do not link to external images Files. 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, time spent on rendering or texturing or building a scene in which to display your model is not included in the alocated 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 as long as it's recognizeable.

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

this weeks challenge:

Time limit - 60 minutes
Deadline - 22.00 G.M.T. Wednesday 27th July 2005
Subject - Fire-Arms

The concept is clear as it is I hope.
All projectile weapons would qualify to a point, but you shall be more credited through modeling a weapon that follows the invetion of BlackPowder/GunPowder... Thus the name

Good Luck

Andy & Black

Starter Model;
Modeled in MaYA in less than 60 minutes
Put together in Pshop in about 15 minutes

Hmmm, never made a firearm, gun or any kind of weapon before. This may be a real challenge for me. Really looking forward to it. Thanks

Brodix · 21-07-2005, 04:33 AM

Muhahahaha... This is what I have been doing for a mod instead of the SMC!!! Black accepted my bribe!!!!! I mean darn not guns...

Black · 21-07-2005, 04:33 AM

hmm Wednesday 28th July 2005

Black should that not be Thursday the 28th? Or Wednesday the 27th? by my calendar the date you put is wrong?

Black · 21-07-2005, 04:47 AM

I honestly hate doing them.. especially rifles and simiallar.. too many details in a long object... Makes it deifficult to browse around to model it.
But if you haven't modeled a weapon such.. it is about time you did.

Anima3D;
I have a few things in hand.. when I am done I will check for any blueprints I can supply. Ok?

FireFly;
Not going for any popularity contest here. I rarely turn my back on my responsabilities.
But thank you none the less.
(The bribe is going to remain between the both of us don't worry.. I won't tell anyone)

Well good luck everyone; lets see who goes first!
