Blender Challange, Wu vs. Rore, (finished!!!!)

Last two days, link to “blender battels” voting thread will be posted here tomorrow afternoon! Get ready to vote, it will be a battle to the death, may the best man/woman win!!! (me :smiley: )

well after a few weeks of Rore non-stop private messages and emails, begging me to challange her i finally gave in. i mean she kept telling me how attractive i was and how handsome i am so i had to. :smiley:

we decided to have a week long challange using the amazing artwork of Samwise who can be seen here SonsOfTheStorm.com
we both started work yesterday, and will finish on Saturday. then head down to BlenderBattles and post our work to be voted on!!

we both plan to update our pictures on this thread and get valuable commens and crits! i think we both have a great start!(but in reality we are just doing this so one day we can be as cool as ecks and Alltaken, but now all we can do is copy :smiley: ).

Rore’s Work So Far
she chose to go with an orc similar to my body type :wink:

Looks awesome

and

I will gladly follow you into battle once again, Wu!

well after a few weeks of Rore non-stop private messages and emails, begging me to challange her i finally gave in. i mean she kept telling me how attractive i was and how handsome i am so i had to.

Oh sure, you have so nice teeth http://simplecartoons.com/me.jpg :smiley:
Tss, that all lies of course! Guess who was sending me lots of emails… but I won’t repeat what he asked, there are people under 18 here :< :smiley:

Hmm… I have to go back to drawing the body of my orc now :slight_smile: (face and side view, that much easier than using the original artwork)

Rore, you should model a really thin and unathletic orc…I’d laugh

but that was only if you lose :< :smiley:

thanks for the comments guys, also please follow this idea
if you post on this thread please also include a comment about the work, or a focused crit, because we (me and Rore) have already invested hours of time into these models and i dont want this thread locked!!

update from me tomorrow, or tuesday, going to work on the big guns next, thats arms for all the people who dont speak 8) cool 8)

Maybe if I have time left at the end, or after the end, just for fun :wink:

Not much progress, but it’s in case someone wanted to see a wire. There something wrong with the nostrils I think, I must try to correct that. (but I don’t want to add to many vertices at the moment)

btw, I had some problem with the Loop Cut tool. It suddently decided to cut things in the middle, not where I wanted too. And it seemed to affect only the orc mesh. Strangely enough, I have that problem only if some vertices are hidden, and then I must use edge slide to move the cut where I want. Anyone got that problem before?
or is it just Wu doing some black magic on my orc? :wink:

Combine “Wu” with “Rore”, combine implausible truncheons with implausible dentistry, and you get GWAR!!! http://www.gwar.net/

Wow I feel dumber for watching that movie Wu.

Eh… my loss of brain cellz was… what was i going to say?
Good work both of you. Cant wait to see em compleated

I think WU will lose…he has this record of losses that I simply cannot ignore. So Rore you dont even have to try hard, Wu is a born loser…

OK, here we go again!

WU’s team:
[Kothe]

Rore’s team:
Enriq766

Both of you “guys” work look realy nice, but my balls (hehe) is in WU’s hand’s :smiley:

put me on Rore’s side :wink:

awesome work to both of you. Can’t wait to see more!

Count me in on Rore’s team.
Nice work from both of you!

:< if i was going to do black magic i can think of much better things, muhahhahahah!! :<
your model is looking great by the way, i can see you are serious now, and that i need to work harder…

so looks like we are picking sides again, haha, someone else will have to keep track, i’m going to focus on beating rore, shouldnt be too hard :smiley: just kidding she is a great artist…for me to poop on :smiley:

thanks for the nice comments, hopfully i can make more progress with out messing things up too bad, haha. i went back and added in the arms, a little more tweaking and the think they are done, then i’m going to move onto the hands/glove. luckly i only need the one reference photo, because if i want to see how the muscels look all i have to do is take off my shirt and flex in front of a mirror, because i’m a real beast, and dont you loosers forget it!!

big thanks to Rore for starting the challange. i really am enjoying it, i have not made a coplex model in about a year, so it feels great to be back modeling, thanks!

i’m with wu !!1

My vote is for Rore. :smiley: :wink:
Rock, Rock on!

I’ll keep the record!

Wu: Maybe it’s your camera perspective, I think your guy’s head looks too small.

Rore: I’ve had the same problem in 2.41, where in some cases Loop Cut immediately places the vertices without letting me adjust. Still investigating where and when it happens.

Kothe: Please put me down for Rore’s team. I think Wu sucks. I want to choke his face.

Wu seems to be stronger here so count me in on Rore’s team [Kothe]. 8)
