Here... we chat.

I'll start by saying that the reason I picked 'a box' is to help the artist. If you keep it in a box, then one need only create part of a model, the part we can see. Hopefully that will entice more to join the fun.

Hmm.. This could be fun. I'm back at my computers with a very large screen, SO MANY PIXELS!
So.. I can do things now. =)

I remember starting with MS PAint. I dreaded creating a pic more than 500 pixels wide since to coax any detail I was coloring pixel by pixel. Times have changed.

PS: welcome back... tourist.

I don't know if this is ok, but I'm reusing some items I created a few years ago. Had to start over as I lost my file I was working
on a few days ago. Oh well.

Trying to render in YafARay.

I decided to make a slightly different model, so a progress update.
All done in TS workspace side. Rendered in yafaRay.

Worked on making body of airplane more realistic in 3d by changing shape from a flat form to a more rounded and modeled shape.

That is very very cool.

Cool work!
No problem; if ya finished it new it's fine by me.
I loved making these types of models when I was a kid. I remember doing WW2 planes and ships mostly and grunts in dioramas.
Tanks for the memories FH!

Thanks, I learned some new things that applying textures in workspace side works pretty good. I think I need to increase height of rudder as
it looks too low. May also add the horiz. stabilizer part.

May experiment with some more aircraft models if I can find some high resolution images of the sides and top views by modeling directly
over the images

So FH is gonna win by default?

...

Anything in, or coming out of a box.
I can't participate but my idea was originally something like 'the Blob' from old Horror Movie.
Like I said... anything

How about the new voices here giving it a try also?

PS: Please post any finals in the original thread TY

Alrighty then...
Hope it wasn't something I said...

How to call this one? No one has posted any entries. The only work i see for the contest is FHembree.
There's no point in creating a vote is there? If i missed something please tell me.
I'll be back in an hour or two to finalize this.
(I'm not on the net by default so sorry for any delays)

I think people are just busy and have Spring fever to do other things. I'm busy with the chaos of my work season starting and real world things. I spend too much time on a CG project if I start one when I have real world things to do. Not enough self discipline. I'll bet FHembree just hasn't paid attention to the due date.

Dragneye · Post by **Dragneye** » 28 Mar 2016, 22:41

... and I thought you all are shunning me all of a sudden cuz I'm running against Trump. My bad.

Ok wait... some seriousness. Sooo, what to do with the contest?

Draise · Post by **Draise** » 28 Mar 2016, 22:55

I have my box shop I did. I just need a good render of it... can I enter that? Does it fit the rules?

Dragneye · Post by **Dragneye** » 28 Mar 2016, 23:07

Hey Draise. Sorry; I didn't see your post in time.
I closed the contest. No sweat, we all can concentrate on next month's. Hopefully old and newcomers will be ready to tackle the next one.

But hey... as Grand Visier (lol) I can reopen it if you want. At least they'll be something to vote on.
Give me a reply as I'm disconnecting soon.

Draise · Post by **Draise** » 29 Mar 2016, 03:58

Oh it's ok Fhembree to win! I would have totally voted for him anyway, what an awesome item!

Dragneye · Post by **Dragneye** » 29 Mar 2016, 05:31

(aww... it was cool Fin. You didn't have to delete)

Yuuup, FHembree (can I just call ya FH once in a while?) had a strong entry.
You had a great idea and from the looks of it the presentation would have looked darn good too. You get the prize. The prize being participation and acknowledgement once in a while. A sharing.
Anyway, Congrats guy aaaannnnd......
Take it away FHembree!
