Good topic this Month Peter.
After a nice Brew I'll come up with something...

theuns · Post by **theuns** » 02 Feb 2010, 14:36

great topic Rayman, I'm definitely entering this one :)

Moondog · Post by **Moondog** » 02 Feb 2010, 15:08

Sounds like fun. So to clarify, create an underground scene, but does it have to be contained to a cube area? Maybe I miss read that.

I have some ideas already, will get started on this.

RAYMAN · Post by **RAYMAN** » 02 Feb 2010, 15:23

Steinie, Theuns, Moondog great to have you in !

To clarify it should be contained in a cube like shape not so important if the sides are equal in length just that you
show it in a regular containment. Plus if you got some tubes that stick out a little bit that doesnt matter either.....
its like Steinies plattform idea just going under ground
something like this.....
But most of your renders can come from inside no reason to show the cube in those renders...
Its just that all have the same level of difficulty.....

Cool, makes sense. I've started designing mine and I might put up a wip later today.

As much as I would love to join in on the fun this month it's just not possible. I am traveling again soon and I can't install any software on my work laptop so I can't do any modeling unless I bring my personal laptop and that's just crazy talk!

Best of luck to everyone this month. I will be following along as best I can.

HI dont know if i join in on
this one ,i seem to have a mental block
with what to do
good subject

RAYMAN · Post by **RAYMAN** » 06 Feb 2010, 12:21

Pugman i hope you will find your subject... there are lots of possibilities ..
think of what you always wanted to render asnd take that to under a surface.....
If its a car ..... put it into an underrground parking lot ..... if its a plane under the deck of an aircraftcarrier..
I will start on working on mine today so you will be able to see some from my side..

Although I freelanced my own version of "Underground", my favorite underground of all time was in Champagne, France.

Or I should say the caverns near Champagne France and they gave us free samples.

And you still remember that experience ?

How much is "free samples" i would have streched that ....

HI i think i will see if ts can
handle the terricotta army

Steinie · Post by **Steinie** » 10 Feb 2010, 18:13

Great idea Pugman 1 !
I'm looking forward to your progress.

I too have come up with an idea.

RAYMAN · Post by **RAYMAN** » 10 Feb 2010, 19:04

Great to have you both in !

theuns · Post by **theuns** » 19 Feb 2010, 10:24

Forgot to post my WIP thread for my "Cave Village" entry... vi ... f=5&t=1486"

Steinie · Post by **Steinie** » 20 Feb 2010, 18:30

Unless everyone is almost finished this might be reason for a two month MMC...?
I would like to see more entries/participation also. In my case I could easily finish
this one but would like more time to make it better. I have no problem whatever you
guys decide.
Comments?

RAYMAN · Post by **RAYMAN** » 20 Feb 2010, 19:45

Steinie I thought the same thing i didnt see any finished pieces yet so i thought it would be a good thing to give this an extention...
Any thoughts from you all ?
I have lots to do on my own entry still too !
Peter

LeonRegis · Post by **LeonRegis** » 20 Feb 2010, 19:50

For now I just did the cave, the pickaxe and some things into the mine. I'll not finish if it don't be extended...

RAYMAN · Post by **RAYMAN** » 20 Feb 2010, 19:54

Leon I´m with you and Steinie on this I want to extend this contest.... anyone against it ?
Peter

RAYMAN · Post by **RAYMAN** » 21 Feb 2010, 04:22

Ok so there is no objections I will follow Steinies idea and suggest the next deadline to be the same day only one month after the old deadline so you will all get one month more time to finish and some more people to join in. So this will be a 2 month contest as steinie suggested.
March 22 nd and end of voting poll will be end of the month.
Peter

Finis · Post by **Finis** » 21 Feb 2010, 16:28

Maybe 2 months should be the new standard for contest time (except SMC). A lot of people have less time to devote to these things now due to money/jobs/economy or the demise of TS (learning other software) or whatever. Especially the animation contest since animation takes more time.

RAYMAN · Post by **RAYMAN** » 21 Feb 2010, 20:02

Could be an idea to discuss.I´m open for it. Anyway with only one entry so far I couldnt go for a shorter period this month anyhow.....and Feb is very short

Peter

unklejman · Post by **unklejman** » 21 Feb 2010, 20:03

So is it settled then? I started mine last night, which was going to prevent me from doing a WIP until I was finished.

Steinie · Post by **Steinie** » 21 Feb 2010, 21:50

Yes keep going! We need more entries and I like watching how you will do yours with Max.
I wasn't sure what the outcome would be for extending the deadline so I worked late one
night to finish. Now everyone can spend the proper amount of time on theirs.
No reason for anyone to say "no time"
Now who else will join us?

Thanks Peter for extending. A two Month deadline makes more sense for the MMC and Animation
Challenges.

rjeff · Post by **rjeff** » 22 Feb 2010, 01:41

Whish I would have read this, before I rushed today. Oh well I will re do my final image, as there was more I wanted to add.

Steinie · Post by **Steinie** » 22 Feb 2010, 20:02

Well after rereading the rules...DUH, I still have two more renderings to do.
"One outside and two inside"
That is ok since I like this months Challenge and the other entries so far. Sets me back on the Animation project though. More Coffee!!!

RJeff needs two more too in case he too didn't notice.

Thuns, 800x600 is the max resolution allowed. One of yours is much larger. You might want to link to it. (People with smaller monitors would have to scroll to see it)

So we still have more work to do!

unklejman · Post by **unklejman** » 23 Feb 2010, 00:10

Why is 800x600 the smallest allowed anyway? That is like a post card on my monitor and it is an obsolete standard these days. I think there should at least be the option for higher res. renders as long as there is a smaller version.

Finis · Post by **Finis** » 23 Feb 2010, 01:34

You can link to a larger version.

Steinie · Post by **Steinie** » 23 Feb 2010, 02:31

Finis is correct in that you can link to a larger resolution. We need to think
about others with smaller monitors or dial-up. When everyone post their renderings
in one thread it can be a burden for some. I want everyone to be able to enjoy this site.
If you decide to start your own thread with your artwork, you can post any resolution you like.
If you decide to do an animation please post it at youtube with a link here.

jamesmc · Post by **jamesmc** » 23 Feb 2010, 13:14

Crap - extended?

I spent all my mojo in the first week - and I've put away the Xmas decorations for the year.

rjeff · Post by **rjeff** » 23 Feb 2010, 15:36

Hmm..not sure that I can come up with two more..hmmm maybe I can finish off the back walls and do a render from inside the door way...not sure what my other would be.

RAYMAN · Post by **RAYMAN** » 23 Feb 2010, 16:06

the idea is to put this into a cube with the entrance on top so my suggestion would be to make the rest of the room (other side) and make a staircase down
from a top level you then hve 2 more views.....
