Sorry it's a little late, something came up yesterday.
This Speed Challenge is to model Gadgets - by 'gadgets' I really mean consumer electronics, things like video game consoles, mobile phones, stereos, these kind of things. The catch is, it can't be anything that's currently in production, or still quite recent - rather, an old classic, or a future vision. Show us what the Playstation IV is gonna look like, or give us your take on the future of mobile phones, or remind us of the graceful curves of the Master System II, or, remind us of the existence of the NeoGeo, or show off your from-memory recreations of your beloved BBC Micro
The time limit for this one is 2 hours. Remember, its just meshwork, no unwrapping or texturing is required. The deadline has been revised - see above.
When posting your entry, remember to give us:
- A render
- A wireframe
- Tri count
- Time spent creating the model
We recommend that you post your final images using a clay render. Check out this excellent tutorial from game-artist.net to learn how to do it with maya and 3ds max.
The full rules for the Speed Challenges can be found here
Remember, the time limit is for you to challenge yourself - show us the best you can do in that time. You can take a tiny bit longer, but it's in your interest to play fair & level. The whole point of this is to improve your skillz0rz.
As always, if you've got a question, lemme know
