Anyone got any ideas for a project?
« on: December 29, 2007, 09:47:25 am »
Its the Christmas holidays and I have plenty of time on my hands.... I am thinking of doing something Anim8or, but I cant think what.

Anyone got any ideas for a project?

I don't like using humans or things, rigging and all that just doesnt gel with me so I would prefer to do something that doesnt involve humans or animals or animate beings. I do like doing buildings, structures and a few easy vehicles.

Im not a noob at anima8or or 3D work, I just havent really gotten into a project that Ive wanted to go all the way with.


So any ideas? Just shoot them at me


Cheers

Thanks Kreator, but I do prefer to do my own projects... Ive seen all too many other peoples' projects starting to fail and then just die out... And I like to do it at my speed anyway.

Mak, Hmm, could do.


I think I need to get my anim8or sorted out first anyway. Whenever I draw selection boxes it shows them as if it is every frame... annoying.

 but the Christmas tree was completed and all contributors got their credit where applicible.
