I can't wait to start this competition. I just want to find a really interesting object to model...

and a $400 prize, thats awesome.

I think i have finally decided on what I will create. I will make one of my sneakers. It is sort of falling apart and is dirty so I think it should be a good project. I will post images later when i get a chance to take digital photos of it.

It is a white Nike shoe with a plastic air pocket underneath the heal, which may prove difficult to duplicate in 3D.

I have been looking at other entries, and they are fantastic. Nice job everyone.

good choice pal.

Photos
 

I took some pictures of the shoe/shoes I am planning on doing. I was thinking about a cool toy that I would like to model, but it's at my house and I would have to find it.

Multiple shots of the shoe

good choice ..suitably grunged ...hehe
should be good :)

Woah, should be a good project, good ref pics 2.
Good luck Bro.;)

good choice :)

here's hoping you mange to get it looking worn. Better not clean then for two months either ;)

starting finally
 

Hopefully I can actually start modeling on Friday, as I have yet had time to accomplish anything other than homework lately. I don't really wear these shoes anymore, so they will stay dirty and all grimey. I wil need to work on texturing for this project because I still have not actually done UV mapping for any models I have made yet. I think I will get the hang of it because I like to use Photoshop.

beginning modeling

finally started huh, good start :D

The warming up period is over ....now get to it Joe..:)

C&C.. the trainer is much more detailed than that and it's a different colour ....hehe

hahha

Umm... you're progressing very nicely, I like the accuracy with which you are representing this shoe ;) :p :)

Yeah I think I'm almost done. :attn:

I have no doubt this will win.

Haha. Thanks for the laughs guys.
