Hey if someone's going to say that I'm not a moderator, I sent a PM to Theeth and he okayed it.Even though he said it might be hard. So the challenge is Lightsaber( Rotoscoped if wanted). You can do pics(simpler) or vids. RULE #1: You can use Blender only. I do not allow Photoshop. And let the rotoscoping begin!

I think... you should ask blackcougar before following up on Week Day challenges, seeing that he normally handles them and there are set rules for it already.

... or just change the name to something else and nothing will happen.

don't worry blenderman, just change the name of the post to something like "Lightsaber Rotoscoping Challenge"

You can do this by pressing edit on your post, then advanced edit and you'll be able to change the title

You can make a new topic for the voting and put everything there in a nice and neat outline. I think I will have to try this, sounds like fun. All I need to know is the rules, like starting and ending date you know.

NO. You can take any old rotoscoping and post it. But it has to be yours.

Can we submit multiple entries? I have a good video and a good picture I want to submit.

EDIT: I like the video best, so here it is.

This is where we post our entries right?

Now I call that coincidence.
I am right now experimenting and developing a robust and hopefully versatile lightsaber node setup and toolbox. And here there is a challenge for this .

So for the still I managed to corner a crab sith and took the follwoing photo from it.
