Hi Mike,

Just a quick question to make sure .....

I have entered this competition with the idea of the Alice in Wonderland white rabbit playing golf.

I'm assuming a rabbit falls in the category "character" - agree ?

I haven't been here in months, but now I'm back (for those that even might have the smallest idea who I am). I think I'll try something out for this... this is my first challenge, and I have needed a project to do for a while now. I'm thinking I'll do something like underwater archery (though that is subject to change), with some sort of special targets. I'd still consider myself somewhat of a beginner, but I'll give this a try (though I might be busy over the next 3-4 weeks).

Open your eyes... Someone or something powerful created these creatures, these draconians... This is a war of conquest... This is the portent of the fallen stars... We face a foe who seeks, at the very least, to enslave us, or perhaps destroy us completely.

OK this is going to seem really stupid... but i thought i might ask anyway :blush:

Could my entry possible be based on a Board Game???

I'm not going to model the actual board, but rather bring the Concept of the Board game to life in a "Real" sport.

Such as the board game 'Battle Ships'...... user added image

Let me know!

Hmmm, thinking about it. It's not going to be such a great idea, and plus it would barely fit within the guide lines.

I'll try and think of something.

What about Futuristic Fooseball?

Two guys duking it out, with a futuristic Fooseball table.

Would you except Fooseball as a sport?

Thanks for the reply. user added image

Hello Mike

I am sorry I am a bit late on asking advice. I wanted to create a egg beating contest theme. I know it does not exist but where I use to work in some hotel some years a go in the kitchen we use to play and kind of compete with each-other who would beat them the faster so they stay still and don't fall when You flip the pan upside down. Do You think that is a good idea I have allready started making some character and the enviroment for it and now I am working on the textures and some lightning. Do You think That can qualify for the challange? I hope it does. I am puting my heart on this one and spend to many hours allready.

Thanks
