This week’s theme: Cooties

Pure Entries

Modron [list:fa2e2a8ef5]
Here is my cootie. The slimy surface is supposed to be a magnified tongue, and if the cootie were not in the way, you would see that behind it is a uvula.

It is a “cootie machine.” Very small, and lives on a person’s skin. Transferred by touch. Will cause a severse case of cooties! Do not kiss a girl unless you know she doesn’t have these!!!

Here is my cooties research results. I had to kiss 36 girls to get one good sample of cooties. Then I fired on my electronic microscope and got image of cooties in action injecting love feromones to my skin… uh, I feel strange… (passing out…) :slight_smile:

Cooties, never seen one, never been bitten by one, but I guess they look like this:-

Jogi’s is my favorite, so my vote goes to him! the rest are very nice, but jogi’s wierd lighting wins above all. i would really like it if you would go into more detail about how u did it!

I went with Fobos and his diabolical cootie of mayhem.

great topic this week, however I could not compete again due to time(spent the weekend trying to learn armature, and rvk set up). However this would have been right up my alley.
All great entries, but these are the three I liked best.
#3 sonix- I like the abstractness of the work, and the long claw design is great.
#2 fobos- Great character modeling, very life like.
#1 modron- I voted for modron, the first time I saw this in the “works in progress” section I loved it. Very fragile and dainty and pretty, exactly what a cute girl’s germs should look like. And the droplets of water are also a great effect.

So topic 100 is coming up soon, and I was wondering if anyone would be interested in putting money in towards a prize. Like if we all put in $10 and then made a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd prize available. Just a suggestion. But would have to work out things like currency differences, were to keep the money (someones paypal account)? I would put up some money, anyone else??

My vote goes to modron because he had a clever concept, good modeling, an environment, pretty nice texturing…and it was very “cootie-like” in my mind. The runner up for my vote was Sonix.

Sonix got my vote. Damn, if I only knew cooties were so cool, I wouldn’t have worried that much when I was young.
Good job everybody
-IS-

I voted for Modron. What a Cootie!
Jogi, congratulations for the mood of your pic. Great lighting.

Everyone had great cooties, but Fobos’ cootie’s smile won me over.

Coolness guys!!! When I came up with cooties this wasn’t what I expected… LOL.

Sonix you got my vote… mostly cause I would have never come up with a cootie like that. (and yer skill hehe).

But roger… damn close… I love that it’s hairy and between hair sorta…

I’m not sure but I think you have to have Tuhopuu 1 to do that. Oh, and…
vote for meeeee! You must give in to the overpowering cuteness!

argh… (zombie like) must give in… must give in to the cuteness…

modron, i think theres no special blender required, as long as it has negative lights… im not sure though… jogi?

I think that all blender versions have a negative light “button”, like I wrote in WIP forum, 4 directional lights make “side lights”, one negative light enhances areas that are facing camera and one spot makes shadow under main object. All lights but spot is attached to the camera. Simple as that :slight_smile:

Wow cool, I have not played with negative lighting much but I sure will.

Well, quailman got my vote. I like the simlicity and funny usage.
byyye . vosa

Although Sonix’s entry was very impressive, I cast my vote for jogi. His pic was very nicely done.

Thanks to those who voted for me. Much appreciated.

My vote went to Jogi, it’s just an interesting pic to look at.
I thought bluedemon’s was very impressive, nice graphic look.
sonix pic is nice too, and will probably win because it’s shiny.

Good work everyone. This was a great topic.

Winner: Sonix with 25% of the votes

Congrats!
