Digital Sculpting Mini: FINAL TRIBUTE

A fan based competition presented by GA.ORG

Theme: FINAL TRIBUTE

It's here, FINAL FANTASY XIII, So lets celebrate this epic gem with a tribute to the series.

The goal of this mini is to create a bust (head and shoulders) of any PRE Final Fantasy XIII Character of your choice. While you are only required to create the head and shoulders of the character, you may create a full body sculpt as well.

And for the first time EVER, Polypainting and Texturing IS ALLOWED. So go crazy and make something awesome!

The Details:

-For this mini you may create your own base mesh in 3d or in Zspheres, etc.

-All polypainting/texturing MUST be displayed directly on your highpoly, NO lowpoly/normal maps.

-You are NOT restricted to only using sculpting tools (you can use 3d max/maya's tools if need be for pieces--just keep it high res).

-Base, background are optional



It's strongly strongly STRONGLY encouraged that you post progress images as replies this thread. We're not forcing everyone to yet, but half of the point of these minis are to help build up the community. If you're posting last minute without at least saying hello, then you're missing all the fun! Stop lurking!

Please do not make a new thread for your entry. Keep all w.i.p shots in this specific thread.


Final Submission:


Submit one image, 1000x1000 pixels or less. This image should include your final product, and any preliminary work (sketches) you wish to show (optional).


You can submit your finals here:
http://www.gameartisans.org/contests...sculpting.html


Prizes:
1st place:
- 1 new forum and gallery award icon for mini challenges
- 1 point towards raising your overall game, elite, and/or master rating
on gameartisans

2nd place:
- 1 new forum and gallery award icon for mini challenges
- 1/2 point towards raising your overall game, elite, and/or master
rating on gameartisans

3rd place:
- 1 new forum and gallery award icon for mini challenges
- .25 points towards raising your overall game, elite, and/or master rating on gameartisans

Public Voting:
All Winners are chosen through a public voting system. Only GA.org
members may vote.


Soft Deadline: Voting starts Monday March 29th, 2010, around 11:59pm! (PST).


Go for it, troops

Behemoth King

I have all ready chosen my Character the Behemoth/Behemoth King from Final Fantasy XII and all the other Final Fantasys that have a Behemoth in it to.

The Behemoth has been the cause of many "game over" screens. This monstrosity with purple fur and big black horns can attack physically and magically with equal ferocity. If that wasn't enough, if there's a Behemoth, there's often a more powerful version near the end of the game called the King Behemoth.

Being a giant lord of darkness, fashioned by the gods during the creation of heaven and earth. Its muscles are hard as steel, and its bones are made of bronze. Originally appearing as a great ox, the souls of the many warriors it killed in battle have altered its form forever. This diet of death has added to it skill in combat withal, as it draws strength and knowledge from the warrior-souls imprisoned within its veins.

Will it be the usual 'our own spin' on the characters or standard sculpt.

I guess this is a decent excuse to do a 4 or 6 character. The other games where bleh compared to those two. So here is a list of character I need to ween down.

Ultimos the octopus
Edgar Figarro
Cid of Final Fantasy 4
Kain Highwind
Cyan
Ultima Weapon monster
Golbez or Dark Cecil with helmut removed.

You can do a redesign if you like, the goal here is to just have fun and get better at art.
