3D + Photoshop challenge!

Hey Everyone!
I’m a noob to this forum but this sounds interesting :smiley: i want to challenge anyone in 3d and photoshop! Perhaps like an object (like the desk) or maybe wallpaper? I dont really mind :slight_smile: Is anybody interersted? I dont mind if this is individual or like a team challenge…

Count me in. My skillz are terrible, but there’s only one way to improve: practice.

I’m in, I started work on something today! I’ll set a theme after we get more contestors!

A chance to go up against Dan? Oh man, I’m in! :stuck_out_tongue:

hehehe awsome :smiley:
i was thinking of product packages?
like you have to model some sort of product in 3d… it can be anything simple such as a can, bottle or box of some sort… and u need to create some original packaging in photoshop or paintshop or watever :)?

what do u guys think?

Sounds good to me, lets see what everyone thinks.

That sounds like a good idea. My only concern is that people will just plop down a cube, squish it a bit, call it a box, and put all the rest of their time on the texture. How about something that poses a challenge on the modelling, and texturing side?

I was thinking more of something abstract than a box…you guys can do that, but I think I will drop out of this battle if so.

abstract? like a abstract wallpaper? and why are you gonna drop dan!?!?!? :frowning: The more the merrier! =) Well whatever you decide then thats cool, what do you guys think about the abstract thing? Dan could you be more specific?

I personally would prefer not to do a box. Abstract is not really my thing, but I’ll give it a shot. Maybe Lost should set a theme and everything. Or perhaps Kei, the originator of this thread, should have the last word?

i really dont mind! i’ve never done abstract before but this could be a good opportunity to do one… i guess its up to everyone… anything will do for me :slight_smile:

if we do the packaging one it doesnt really matter what you concentrate on… you may do some really cool modelling but not so good texture or vise versa… it would be the end piece that would be judged… :slight_smile:

thats fine, we’ll just wait for the rest to come up with something.

how long are the challenges meant to go for? :stuck_out_tongue:

doesnt matter to me ethier, but lets wait for a mod to decide and set up the specs.

hehe ok ok thats cool :slight_smile:

This is something ‘abstact 3D’ that I did for a battle in another forum:

I can’t exactly explain abstract in words, just art…so what do you think? Abstract or the box thing?

the box thing sounds boring, abstract sounds fun, but either way is fine, what do you say guys?

it doesnt have to be a box… you could model otehr things like a glass bottle or something if you wanted to…
but abstract is fine with me :slight_smile:

Dan, would you decide for us and get this thing on the road. =)

box = null;
abstract = null;

if(box) {
     danNoEnter();
} elseif(abstract) {
     danEnter();
}

Which function do you prefer?
