Speed Model Challenge #9 - Wheel // Speed Model Challenge 1  2  |   Order by default Post by prodigy // Mar 17, 2007, 10:56am prodigy Total Posts: 3029 What ever........ its allways the same thing.... :( Post by Jack Edwards // Mar 18, 2007, 1:32pm Jack Edwards Total Posts: 4062 I think that all objects in the scene should be modelled from scratch within the 2 hour time limit. Loading pre-made objects defeats the whole purpose of the challenge. :( Also as far as policing the rules, we can do that with our votes. -Jack.

Loading pre-made objects defeats the whole purpose of the challenge. -Jack. I don't see why loading premade objects is any different to using premade textures. The artist in me is not happy with posting an incomplete picture and props have a very real purpose in my view - it's all about presentation Dahlinks! Basically if I can't display my work to it's best advantage - ie in a scene of some sort then I'm not interested in contributing any further to the speed model challenges. Additionally I thought the prime motive here was to have fun and learn, not to come up with more rules and regulations about what is and what isn't allowable. I second Prodigy's sentiments. It takes no time to load an object from a library and pose it. my $0.02 worth.

They are voting for the "object" and not it's surroundings. Post by W!ZARD // Mar 19, 2007, 12:28pm W!ZARD Total Posts: 2603 I agree, I just think people should remember that when they are voting.

I'm always going to be attracted to novel and interesting interpretations on the theme rather than the execution, presentation, lighting, modelling and so on. My vote is always based on what I see as the cleverest twist on the subject. Different strokes for different folks...
