as of yet there is no prize other than respect , and who knows if enough people enter maybe conitec with throw something in.

you must agree the models that come with gs are way outdated amd we need some fresh meat! cbabe and warlock are great , dont get me wrong but old. so lets say this contest is aimed at charaters.
they can be any type of character , but must be skinned and animated with or without bones , must have at least ,stand ,walk , run ,jump ,swim , death animations but the more the merrier.

lets say 1000 poly min and 3000 max .

and you must be willing to let others use your model free of charge , hopefully all entries will end up on the download page.

all content must be created by the person who enters.

lets say july 4 will be deadline and we can have a poll to vote for best

Ok I will bite... Maybe you can convince Conitec to offer up some cash or free software? Make it worth the time it takes to create a character..

i sent jcl a pm asking just that , but never recieved a reply .
thats why i say that maybe if enough people want to do it , they might.

i am game! i finally tried my hand at a rock monster model. animated, its kinda cool.

awesome! blink , i cant wait to see it , i havent decided what im going to make , but im going to submit something. rock monster idea is cool.

hmm i might join, i stink at skinning tho =P

thats alright , i suck at animation.

i found this awesome animation frames pic that i use for the walk and run animations. it helped me a great deal with animating new models with bones. the other basic animations are easy to create.

Nice, I might have a bash at this. It'll give me a chance to try some new stuff out, Thinking of doing a barbarian/warrior guy.

barbarian guy sounds cool! im thinking of submiting a hockey mask murderer like jason
