Thanks.. I really hope its worth it..

Anyway, regarding the image, I do think the pacifier have a really interesting shape and at first the shape looked spooky to model. But when analyzing the object I found a way to make it.

I just love those impossible shapes. A couple of years ago I was fencing a lot - and I Was deeply faschinated by the shape of the handle on an epee.. you should try to take a look at that, its seems impossible to model at first.

It could be fun to make a little challenge called "impossible shapes", where we select an everyday object with an interesting shape, and see what people could make of it.

What do you guys think ?

and this is a wire shaded/shot .. I have disconnected the CPS base models and they are grouped under null1 as you can see in the screenshot of the outliner.

As I clarified earlier, I made the model in about 4 hours yesterday because I wanted to participate and since I only used that little time I did not do incremental saves - I actually only saved 2 or 3 times.

I can understand that, but still you could have an incremental save in your 1 year old project lying around.. user added image

But I totally agree that its a challenge and everybody have the same amount of time. I just happened to be a slow poke and started yesterday user added image
