low poly contests

[Minos]

I think we should have them again

[hessi]

make a setting. lets make a "model the shoes you are wearing right now" contest! 512 polies for the pair and 128^2 texture (no normalmapping. only colormap!) that's my suggestion

[Buddy]

Cool Idea Hessi!

[Psy]

Colour mapping?

Please, do tell me what such magic is.

I wear socks indoor, and I have about 5 shoes that I wear every now and then.. Too hard.

How about low poly ships: 500 tris max - 256x256 diffuse + normal/spec/opacity

[st0lve]

Yea, sounds cool.

Looking forward to modeling a hyper rusty russian fishing boat

K just let me say that these low poly contest are awsome. What we need though is something that every one could do that have started with 3dsmax etc. Like for me i think i could pull of to make a shoe. But then the texture? I guess i could use 3dsmax own or maybe try to take some pic but i would fail in uw mapping anyway. So what about starting with making a model with least polys of something.

If the 'something' was a triangle I might be in with a fighting chance.

Seriously though, I miss these contests, they were good for me to ghost when I was bored. One day I'll hopefully get time to join in.

[Erratic]

The boats sounds like a cool idea.

[Minos]

Let's do it then ? Could you start the oficial thread peris ?

[Pericolos0]

how about i post a texture sheet and you guys make cool models with that

[Buddy]
