Artwork > Anim8or Challenges

[ COMPLETE ] Challenge #24: Halls of Fury!

<< < (16/18) > >>

Janro:
I'm afraid I might not be able to finish this. I have to go to class and I might not have enough time when I return.

To at least show what I've got already, here's a wip. All that's missing are the character's really, which I've just boiled down to two.

Now that I look at it though I think it's really stretching it...

EDIT: Managed to finish it (at the expense of my painting XD)

The image needed a tad bit of photoshop color correction to fix up some lighting issue I couldn't handle within Anim8or due to using flat surfaces for leaves. You can't get a good highlight easily on the upper part of the group of leaves. (HoF contact ps.jpg)

But if photomanipulation isn't allowed on the entries then I attached an unedited one just in case. (HoF contact.jpg)

EDIT 2: Crud I rendered the wrong size. I wondered why it was so small. XD

Additional notes: Render time approx: 20 mins

This has a ton of flat surfaces for particles whatnot. I lost count how many copy pastes I did to get a clutter. And due to lack of time I couldn't fill the area with bodies. Ah well.

I found a few faults already while I stare at my screen during render. Lighting is something I should really get practicing with... well basically that here and there and I over darkened some textures for fear the characters won't stand out.

Any feedback is appreciated :D

Final Ver: HoF contact ps

Raxx:
Hm, you certainly stretched the boundaries, Janro, but I guess it's close enough...you did preserve the corners afterall :P Nice scene though, I think if you had more warriors in there to fill the scene, it'd have looked even better! As for the lighting, certainly has a lot of saturation. But it'd also have been hard to make the darks subtle enough to work against a tropic sunny day as well. Overall for the time you put in it, you've done really well.

Ok, the topic is now (finally) open for voting! I put the images together in the first post so that you don't have to rummage through the entire topic, so feel free to vote on your favorites! I wish Indian8or didn't drop out though, but I think there's enough entries there to make a good poster or T-shirt or something ;)

Arik_the_Red:
I liked all the entries. I always enjoy seeing every entrant's ideas and efforts. Cast my vote and going to hide in the event someone throws something at me ;-)

headwax:
Yibbeedee Doodah some of those works are sparkling!

Thanks for hosting the challenge Raxx - and carrying it through to the end.
I know why you don't put your own work in. You just don't want to show us up eh :)

Cheers from this part of Oz!

Raxx:
Hah, the secret's out :P

So, voting's over and we know who the winners are! ENSONIQ5 at first place, Headwax in second, and Janro third!

Congrats goes to everyone who participated in this challenge. It was a long one ;) As for the prize winners, give me a few days and I'll set up your options based on if the artists here give me permission to plaster their work on something tangible :P
