We are going back to the "2D Creature" forum for the design of the next challenge.

Due to the great success of the most recent Pokemon re-design challenge we think it would be a good idea for you to bring them to 3D.

Heres a link to the finals and voting page so you can choose which one you want to sculpt, and remember to let the 2D artist know that you would like to use their design in this challenge.

We are also only giving you 2 weeks to finish this one!!
perhaps an entire month to do the work is too long and difficult to keep the interest going.

~Also with Xmas holidays coming up, best to keep it short~

Challenge Starts Dec 1st and Ends Dec 15th.

Minimum requirements for final entry:
• Beauty (posed shot), Front, Profile, and 3/4 render of the final piece
• No poly limit, use any 3D modeling package!!!
• If you make a low poly model, be sure to get some shots of your wireframe. Texture maps/color and turntables are a plus.
• Have Fun!


Also Please post updates every 5 days just to keep things going....


The deadline for this contest is Wednesday, December 15th at 11:59 pm Eastern Time [GMT-5].

if you can finish in time go for it, comes down to time management... can you do a concept and model it in 2 weeks?

[karmajf]

I really like Elekid :P and no one re-designed it hehe. But my concept will be just something real rough. I have to watch all the creature 2d planets concepts ^^ to see if someone pulls me hehe

[xireon]

Hmm wasn't the 2D contest that they had to make a pokemon from the first serie's?

So if we are going to do the same that would mean the same rules, so just the pokemon from 1 to 151 right?

or are we going to do all the pokemon that are there at the moment

[karmajf]

ohhhh i didn't read that part I guess haha :P

Edit: I think im going to use this concept as base. It was made by RarroX (found it on google)

[arttorney]

I couldn't resist. I got Maxim Verehin's approval to make his Pokemon. It's classic. I learned from my prior mistake and will approach this model in the manner that has worked for me in 3D jams. I saw some texturing info in my manual that leaves me reasonably confident I can manage the hair.

Still a WIP, obviously.

i like the shorter turn around. definitely motivates me to go faster and lets me skip one without wasting too much time.

I'm just gonna make a more realistic version of Kangaskhan. I'll wing the design as i go. Kangaskhan always seemed really bad ass, even tho it was cartoonish (and was carrying a baby )

also, there is some pretty sick stuff that comes up when you google image search different pokemon....

[karmajf]

I'm not happy with the base yet, and dont know how ill make the face yet, but here is an update, tried a pose ^^.
c&c are welcome

I never really followed this stuff but I'm guessing Pikachu has no butt crack or anything like that.

I have figured out how to subdivide into smaller facets, so this gemstone look is merely preliminary.

i'm going with pinsir..

i choose this because it would be a great sculpting chalange, and in fact i think it is the best redesign at all

i saw the other works of the author (scorge) and OMG, he is very talented

Hey karmajf, nice start.
If you look at the concept you can see the twist in the abdominal section(looking at the page the top left to lower right). what that shows is that the left hip(think your left hip) is farther back then right and the right shoulder will be farther back than the left. Its a bit tricky to see in the concept but once you get those adjustments done you will see it come together better.

thanks for the tips kryssmen as soon as i have the model finished ill give him a proper pose

here is an update:
