Competition #13 - raymaniac

[raymaniac]

Here's are the ships I've been making, the modelling is basically done-I've got ~6700 tris already. The textures need some working on.






Yes that's a teapot ship, and a teacup ship to go with it.

Might I suggest looking at what other people have done?

They have put a lot of work into coming up with a concept in 2D first then slowly working the model.
This is clearly a Utah Teapot with some verts distorted and whatnot. Also see this:

I have to agree with Retro-Cow here...

You must understand that there is no way we can let that teapot pass. If the inspiration for a ship doesn't come right away, don't be afraid to sit on it for a while, maybe make some drawings of the stuff you have in your mind. Requiem posted this nice thread in the other forum that can help with finding good resources and ideas...

good luck
