Character modelling competition

800 polys is a bit old hat at this stage don't you think. Should be 1200 i reckon at this stage.

Ah sure I'll give it a go.

Here you mention a 2d art thingie on the site too.....do you have a link to that as well at all?

800 Polies is pretty generous, the original spec was 300!

Yes, only one map is allowed, 256x256 - it can have an alpha channel though.
No you can't submit a .3ds - however we may soon be changing to metastream 3, which is very easy to create from either Max or Lightwave.
Yes it does have to be yourself. However, you could just do a skin for yourself, on someone else's model (but you can't win the modelling prize, only the skinning one)
