Re: The CGI Challenge: Creating a Bomb

I love the lettering on the side. I agree with DBSarazen about the tip, but that is one of the more difficult parts. At the very least, I'd try to get it so it at least looks like the tip is part of the pencil, which it doesn't in this render.

Re: The CGI Challenge: Creating a Bomb

Yeah.
I'll redo the tip today.
I actually modeled that one, but I think I'll make a material for the new one.

Alright!

The deadline for the entries has now passed, and I'm afraid only one person has entered mini/sad . But anyways, the winner is...

ZP!

Give us a good theme, ZP!

Re: The CGI Challenge: Creating a Bomb

Well, hopefully something more complex than a pencil (sorry JP), but not too hard, either. Something along the lines of a bench or a lamppost would work for me.

Re: The CGI Challenge: Creating a Bomb

A picture frame, a soap container, a computer, a lamp, a basket, a pulley, a river, a plane, a sofa, a traffic light...

And the list goes on.

Alright, I suppose that was uncalled for. To be fair, it was challenging to create the tip of the pencil. I suppose my problem with your theme was that, after doing UFOs, pencils were very limiting as far as how much you could do creatively, since most pencils are just an eraser, long, thin cylinder and a tip.

Anyway, I might try to enter this challenge, as I have yet to try modeling anything organic.

Re: The CGI Challenge: Creating a Bomb

Why not create robots?

That has endless creative possibilities.

Re: The CGI Challenge: Creating a Bomb

Don't worry Littlebrick, we knew what you meant mini/wink . Anyway, this theme could be carried out in various ways. Nice choice ZP!

Re: The CGI Challenge: Creating a Bomb

I've only just started fooling around with Blender again and it's going to be a while before I get to texturing so I'm just going to post a clay render.

Re: The CGI Challenge: Creating a Bomb

Looks great!
What color will it be when it's done?

Re: The CGI Challenge: Creating a Bomb

In an ideal world, a red cap with white spots and a door and a chimney. I doubt I'll get that far before the deadline though. Still doing the Noob To Pro tutorials.
