ive been workin on it for about 4 weeks...

I know very little bout textures...

Thx for the crit m8:cool:

I have an idea for this one, and I'm considering entering even after the disaster of the last one:
I caught the flu
wrenched my back
broke a bone in my hand
drew scads of overtime
had the hd crash with my models on it
had the power supply die on my monitor.

So I hesitate to enter again; that may be God's way of telling me I shouldn't be doing 3D (or entering contests, maybe...)

Anyway, I've a cute idea I may try out (though I'm still trying to reconstruct my game art models from backups...)

Mike, would OpenGL graphics books count as art books? :D
There's this book about character modelling with Maya I'd been hoping to get, if not...

it wouldnt be harmful if i have this whole scene with the robot in it rite?

I have a question for the admins. Does the winner choose a premade dvd or can the winner get a dvdr and add stuff to it?

one of our premade dvds.

Ok, I thought so. Just checking. Thanks.

Sound pretty cool
 

Well, at least "skinning" will be easy for this one. I usually waste a lot of days on failed weighing attempts.

Does it matter if we use PLE to model it? I'm a poor starving student and can't afford to buy the complete/ultimate versions.

PLE is fine.

after the final postings at april 30th, by what time do u think the results may come in by? please estimate, very curious

should be within a few days after.

ok thanks, jus curious

ok, another question, if u look at my thread, u will notice that, my robot is somewhat complex, in the final render postings for this competition, are we allowed to post more than one render?? cuz i may need to show the front and rear.... or will u be checking the threads also???

you can post multiple images in the final thread.

and one last question, what does the resolution have to be for the finals???
