Fun, I’m still wondering what the
is going to be all about.
Quandtum, see the first post… nothing to worry about, just the specifications for the banner.

I’m gonna try. But working this weekend, so we shall see. I do have a question though, regarding this and other challenges. Knowing I cannot do humans yet, is it ok to import an already made CC one? Maybe provided that its not the primary focal point?
filetype ?
oh yeah, and size in kilobytes?

Sure you can. If it is major piece of the shot, it would probably classify your entry as open, not pure. Read the rules on this here: http://blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1483
I would say png would be best. As to the size, keep it lossless, post it on an image host that doesn’t compress it.

So I decided to play with lights and shadow play…and this is what happened. I may have to change the middle one ( even though that one took me the longest) since you cant really see what it is.

It’s not an animation challenge.

No animated GIFs. Filetype doesn’t really matter as long as you don’t compress it a lot in a lossy format. Size doesn’t matter either.

Guess I’ll contribute something. What’s more spooky than a ghost?
Pure except external gamma correction, and the branches in the background are recycled from a previous blend to save time, so I guess still pure…

RobertT, that’s exceptional… challenge set aside, I think it’s one of my favorites from you. That is seriously cool!

Thanks so much, Quandtum.
It definitely felt like a really “spooky” piece to work on
Nice work on all the entries, everyone!
