ugh im scrambling to have mine done by friday. i hope i can make it... The hardest thing will be the surroundings and i am just starting them, and i am just realising how hard it really is to put ok looking surroundings on somthing so big :!:

hahaha, sweet jesus i'm cutting this fine for time, but here we go. Textures are all placeholder, lighting is fubar'd and none of my surround is even started, but never mind! Here's a wip....

oooh, very futuristic.
Well, I'll be done by Friday no problem (though I had to turn the 'grand scale' knob down a bit for a few reasons). Geometry and lighting are pretty well done, now it's time for textures. I'm churning them out myself mostly, but I'm starting to run out of source material.

I haven't been able to even start on mine. Looks like I won't be entering this one.

Oh well, next battle I suppose.

I dont like the little wire thingys down the bottom that are 'holding it up' They look really weak and kinda ugly.

Looks good Jest@

Hopefully i will have time to finish the surrounding at least untill the battle ends.

ahhh!!! plagued with so many problems, yes its supposed to be kinda dark out but not screwy dark where somthings are extremely bright like models and certain textures, and i still dont have much for scenery so i dont know if i am gonna be able to complete this battle.

Edit: wrong pic

heres correct

If everyone is falling behind we can extend the deadline? No point in wasting everyone's work but previosly two weeks was enough for several entries.

by **Dude But if ...** on Thu Jan 26, 2006 1:39 am

not to complain or be a poor sport, but to be able to work saterday and have it due saterday at midnight would be really cool

but only if the majority of other contestants want that cuz then it wouldent be fair or somthing.

Well, I have long college classes (2-4 hours) Monday through Thursday, so Friday and the weekends are the only time I really get to do a lot of mapping. It would be nice to get the bugs out around Friday and finish for the weekend.

That would be helpful, not sure if I'll be able to finish this at the moment. Like Jest@'s beauty, I've almost finished my Skyscraper but I've barely started the surroundings.

Alright deadline extended to Sunday midnight 12am GMT. Probably early evening for US.

Front page updated.
