Hello everyone,

I've finally got my maya license transferred to my spangly new computer (5 days after my initial request!!!!!) so I can, at last, start this competition.

The words that were given to me are.........

poor supply

I'm not too sure what It's going to be yet but I'll have a think and post ideas shortly.

Good luck everyone,

Mat.

Nice one matt!

Poor Supply bit ironic that since it took 5 days for your licence request to come through!! LOL

ha ha - that's just what I was thinking.

good luck in the challenge mat!:beer:

I'm going to make a start on this today, hopefully you should see some progress very soon. I'd post my rough sketches but I'm too lazy to install my scanner software on my new computer!!

Cheers,

Mat.

Hello again,

as promised here's a screengrab of where I'm at. In the famous words of Rolf Harris 'Can you tell what it is yet?'

Cheers,

Mat.

oops, forgot the pic!!

Lets try again..........

I dont know what it supose to be, but it looks good :)

Thanks Angalid,

perhaps this will shed some light on the subject.

Take it easy,

Mat.

Here's an update.

Enjoy,

Mat.

Thanks folks,

Hopefully I won't mess it up when it comes to texturing!!

I've made a skeletal hand to put in the scene, all the bones are there even if they aren't exactly the right shape. It's very simply rigged so that I can pose it in the scene.

Cheers again,

Mat.

Hello again,

Cheers,

Mat.
