It’s a just for fun contest.

No entries yet, so I dicided to change the deadline from Febuary 15th to March 20th so they can get the chance to enter the contest.

Hi dewy60 ! Okay ! I will try my best to make a bird :slight_smile: ; Challenge accepted ! so this basically leaves me less than a month to do this…

Although we could need a few more contestants ?!

It is a just for fun contest, so no prizes in this one.

Yes, i will need more people to enter my contest.
Oh, and I want to say to you, Good luck for making a bird, solarforge and don’t forget to make it rigged too!
Also Question: Did you read the rules?

Thanks :slight_smile: ; Yes, I have read the rules for the contest, I already have a few blends on the blendswap.com website …

i think i might take part in this one for fun already have an idea:evilgrin::p:cool:

Yeah lol. Are you entering the contest?

Oh, just finished riging… Probably, they need some kinf of wings.


Daaaaawww, they look cute!

The Blenswap requires a “finished, production-ready” mode, and I’m a pure beginner. May someone check the model? I’ve put it on pasteall: http://www.pasteall.org/blend/34725

It’s a reference image:

Your rubber duck is the first that I have seen so far ! great ! but add for example a bath with it, and even a few bubbles, it is those little details that count a lot…
Nice rubber ducky by the way :wink:

I have a composition with them in “finished works” section. Thank you for warm words.

By the way, I hope, everyone would accept this entry with enough irony :slight_smile:

If you mind, i updated the rules, You can now Upload your Model and/or Rig to Blend to PasteAll if you Want.
But you must have a link for your entry.
