Since Im new to the forum and Ive barely scratched the surface with Zbrush, I thought I would put out some news I thought everyone should care about.
I recently learned that Gamerecruiter.com is having a huge contest called Battle of the Supermodelers. Heres(some of) the article:
Here’s your chance to create an original real-time character model of a monster, creature, robot or alien that might be found in a fantasy, sci-fi or horror game and win fantastic prizes! Our winners will include a Grand Prize Winner and three finalists.
Our Grand Prize package features the Area-51® m15x high performance notebook from Alienware®, accompanied by a Cintiq 12WX pressure-sensitive tablet from Wacom. Our three finalist winners will each win a Wacom Intuos 3 (6 x 8”) pressure-sensitive tablet.
All four prize packages include a selection of two copies of the following software: Autodesk® 3ds Max®, Autodesk® Maya®, Autodesk® MotionBuilder™ and Autodesk® Mudbox™. Each of our four winners will also receive a variety of 3D art instructional DVD’s from the acclaimed Gnomon Workshop.
All art contest entries are to be sent by e-mail. The final four winners will be judged on their final real-time model by a panel of industry judges. Fifty art entries will make it to the finals and be displayed on the GameRecruiter contest gallery page. Deadline to enter is Friday, August 15, 2008. Winners will be announced by September 15, 2008. Learn more about our contest prizes on our prizes page.
Hurray for wonderful contests! I dont have time to prepare anything though. So Im sad.
