Speed Modeling Competition 2: 014: Children's Art

Polygoblin · 13-10-2012, 12:54 PM

This edition of SMC is an interesting one! We will be pushing your creative limit by using children's art as a topic. We wanted to simultaneously prepare you for working with a challenging concept, and also encourage young eager artists to create art in an interesting way.

This past week, we have been gathering children's drawings from anyone who was interested in drawing monsters. We even had a few submitted by the children of Polycounters! For anyone who noticed, yes, this idea was taken from a recent episode of Face Off with a little influence from Child's Own Studio.

We hope you enjoy the unique format and have some fun!

You can submit your ideas for future comps HERE.

NOTICE: New Comp Deadline is
Sunday, October 28th 23:59 GMT

*More Details

Use any drawing in the album linked below as a primary source of inspiration for a model
You may decide how much or little of the drawing to incorporate into the design
You are allowed multiple entries
Each individual entry must be based on an individual drawing
You may choose to model any type of asset you like (character, bust, body part, vehicle, etc)
No teams
No diffuse or spec maps (we will have a texturing portion to follow)

*Note - To download an image from the album, use the gear symbol in the top-right corner.

Everyone feel free to post your WIPs here in this thread.

These comps are not just about fame and glory,
but also about progressing as an artist while networking in a friendly competitive setting.
Have fun and try something new!

and...

GO!

I have a little brother ..can I use his drawings ?

Polygoblin · 13-10-2012, 01:55 PM

Sure, we don't see why not!

Just make sure you either upload a pic of the drawing here or send me a copy so I may add it to the official photo album.

Oh man this is a pretty darn cool comp. I may enter. There's so many possibilities!

Piflik · 15-10-2012, 11:30 AM

That's a fun idea...I have yet to choose which one I exactly want to do, i narrowed it down to three...I think I will let you guess which one I chose when/if I complete the model...

I know what you mean. I would actually do them all if I could. Kid art is pretty amazing.

Leyto · 17-10-2012, 06:06 AM

It's a great idea, I'll take part in it too

Edit:

I'm working on the low poly, it should be under 3000 tris

Polygoblin · 19-10-2012, 09:18 AM

Haha, YES! That is an awesome start, Leyto.

Looking forward to seeing some more WIPs! Good luck, everyone
