two.oh on CGTalk.
Toastie, you go to school in NYC? Where at?

i was thinking about doing that, ill do some more sketching and see if i can fit that in, but i would rather go with my original plan, although the statues wouldnt require any extensive texturing.
- mogwai0
well, you cant please everybody.
you could always show three statues.... made of marble, whatever, and all the people gather the celebrate around them...

yeah, that was my plan, the girl arabic looking, the scientist asian and the worker black, but that too can be offensive I guess. Someone could be like "Hey, so black people are the lowly workers?" or whatever.
- mogwai0
just leave caucasion out.
One black, one kinda asian, and one kinda brown. Surely white folks wont be offended.

haha, well, they're not representatives per se, just iconic representations of the idea. My problem is as I stated in the thread: I wanted to make them different nationalities, but im afraid if i pick 3 and leave the others off, people might get offended.
- mogwai0
cool idea, nice to see some kind of positive vision. too bad the three represntatives would have to be elected, which would cause a huge conflict in itself.....
jk

yeah, here's my concept
- mogwai0
so you're focusing on the legend/hero aspect of it? sounds cool, good luck!
(dude it would be killer to win a new system with softimage on it)

heh, yeah, i know how you feel. I'm sick of the whole sci-fi thing myself, but im trying to do something different with this, mainly doing character modelling and concentrating on facial expressions, hopefully it will be different enough to win.

Thinking about it. I killed about 250 hours on the veltillate contest; then about 75 on the alienware contest. Considering if I want to loose that much time again...especially considering its all done at home in the evenings.

I really dont think i'm gonna. i get tired of the cliche Sci-fi contests, machine-flesh, space opera, etc. plus i do so much damn CG at work, i dont feel like it when i get home, know what i mean?
