3d Character Challenge: ITS ON!!!!

Ive always believed that sometimes in life, you've got to set a few challenges for yourself to liven things up a bit. Also, its necessary to aid the learning process, and hinder things like apathy,and lethargy. The modeling business can be a thrill, but only if you have s fixed agenda. I want all my readers to have a good experience when visiting my blogs, and not to go away empty handed.

You are the reason I blog today, and I was introduced to this blog sphere, by a fellow blogger. Because of these factors mentioned above, I have decided to set up a challenge for myself, and anyone I take on board my team, of modeling out 2d submissions from readers. You can get these submissions to me by placing a link on a comment you make about the posts.

The challenge outlines for this blog are as follows.

(1) You should submit a 2d drawing of a game character to be modeled.

(2) Characters should be:

(a) Alien , human, or humanoid (b) armoured, or none armoured, but clothed
(c) not copied from another persons work, all art work should be yours, and by submitting , you would be giving permission to freely use the work for the purposes for which this challenge are intended. (a quick 4 minuet sketch during your lunch break may do the trick)
(d) Accessories would not be modeled, only weapons fused to the game character
(e) Textured drawings may be modeled on preference to non textured ones. If you submit a black and white sketch try indicating with arrows, the colors of textures you want on the model.
(f) All modeled characters accepted and modeled will be available for free download by the readers of this blog ( for use in personal projects only).
(g) The modeling process would not be shown on the blog because of image storage space, just your 2d image, and a render of the final model, with a link to its download, or a provision to supply you, via e-mail the completed model. (how cool is that folks?)
More terms and conditions would be posted as the challenges progress. So what are you waiting for? The doors are open, and we are awaiting the first task.
