Hi everyone,

it's been a fair while since i've participated in this comp... but this one looks like a doosey. Also i'm not sure what level i am so i'm going norm style, and see if i can match it with the big boys (and girls).

i haven't got much time to do this but i'm sure as hell gonna try.

my concept involves a robotic (and armed) snail... still trying to work out what it transforms back to. i'm thinking along the lines of a unicycle. it seems kinda out there so i hope i can pull this off.

i'll post concept art a bit later.

Josh

ha ha...some good ideas here, though I wonder how you will resolve the wheel / snail shell problem. This should be an interesting project!

Good luck in the challenge!

A pint of example is worth a gallon of advice!!

A snail... that's something truly original and unexpected. Can't wait to see how it turns out

hi guys,

i have fallen a bit behind.... my comp got a virus, and i had to format. soooooooo annoying.

anyway, hopefully i can get things back on track, cos i pretty much lost everything.

cheers
