Still Trying to figure out what this thing is going to do...... Any suggestions out there?

I am thinking about an error checker. The side panel on the cammera with an Lead screen that would say Searching, until it found something.

looking good Karthogen :) i like the bumpmap ridges, works well... and the head box with the wires is also very good :)

there are many things a little critter like this can do... add some modular extensions and he can do any kind of modeling tools, welding, booleans, rendering... etc

I was going to start the finished entry thread tomorrow, I didn't realise I'd messed up with the dates when I extended it :oops:
the finished entries thread usually gives people time to enter, but if your struggling with time let me know and I'll juggle the dates a bit
With us trying to get the contests working again I think everyone is willing to cut some slack,and I hope Mr 3D and Theuns would rather it being more than a two horse race

Not really sure how to explain it, just started with a cube added some geometry that would let me Sweep faces the arm on one side and back, then used sweep to get the back higher. cut it in half and mirrored, and flattened. Two cubes with SDS for seat cussions, and 3 cubes with Some pulled vetices and sds for the back cushions.

Ill post the wire frame and tonight for some critique since there is probably a more efficient way to accomplish it.

This is my last test render.

I need more stuff but I am running out of time to add it in. WE are planing on going camping Friday and Saturday night, so I will only have Sunday, then submitting.

Guess I should add the details... since it's a little different than most.

You ever wonder where that itch comes from that keeps you coming back to model more things, start more projects. That is when behind the scenes comes forward, they reach out and search for you!

Thank you,

I am hoping for enough time to add base boards and crown molding. Maybe the PC under the desk and some papers, boxes on the shelves of the desk. but, it is all going to depend on how Sunday goes.
