Ok its like this from me....a dead heat dave BUT I think IMO you would have won if you had time to animate and texture.

Here I have it

Animation : starj

Textures : starj

Originality : dave

Effects : dave (based on stills)

Completion : starj

So starj gets my vote as it was completed to the specs

Quote :
The rules are,

deadline July 20th
Objective create a missile\torpedo to blow a car, spaceship, boat, sub, airplane, etc.. up with maya
Texturing outside maya is allowed
There will be a poll to determine the winner

I hope my impartial vote hasnt affected our relationship dave...LOL you would have pipped him at the post if you had animation!! and texture. starj was simple yet effective though you had a more complex model by the looks. Well done both of you...great efforts and comradery.

cheers bullet
