Since there isn’t an official Weekend Challenge this weekend, in a rum punch stupor last night it was agreed there should be an unofficial one, sssh don’t tell Teeth!
Because I know you’ll all be busy plying your creative skills on wrapping special presents for loved ones and probably doing the getting fat thing, it will start right now and continue until Tuesday 28th 11am GMT. (I know i’ll need something to do after dinner whilst all are dozing it off and trying to entertain the kids)
The topic is “Festive Fun”, (any and all festivities welcome!), however there is an added style theme of “stopmotion / claymation / paper cut out”, so pull those crackers, put your party hats on and get creative.
If there was to be a prize, i’ll send Helix some spondoolies and get him to send you a “whatdoyoumacallit” chocolate bar, he can send me one too because I don’t believe they exist, it’s just too Willy Wonka to be true!
As usual with my competitions there is only one rule and that is:
Yikes, it’s the 23rd today, I’ll be on a family thing for four days between now and the 28th, it’s 11:13 pm local time, that leaves, umm, around 1 day. Sounds good to me…
Funny, I pondered this myself, good call rarebit, can never turn down having fun! I too have family obligations but, I’m quite sure I can find even a few hours to work on something (even if it ends up a clay render… be alright anyways for claymation)… because I’m going all out fun, I don’t even care how it comes out in the end.
Sound like fun. Maybe this contest will create enough items for next years Blender Artists Animated Holiday Special.
Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas.
I was thinking about this one then I saw the CGcookie contest and I’m sry guys but I gatta go for that one. I might be able to pull something out when I’m done.
Yea, I think I’m in, just hope I’m back home in time to get my entry in… I’ll be spending christmas where dial up internet is the only thing available. :no:
Alright Charlie! You know you aren’t suppose to give away all the Umpa Lumpa secrets. Turn in your everlasting gobstopper now! (also real BTW) And I’m sending over my reindeer to drop a deuce on your lawn for calling him a moose! (I won’t animate out of respect for the BA community)
hi guys,

thanks
derek
thanks guys, i dont want them to change the blender internal.
i like it as a “bunch of tricks,” you can accomplish things in this that you cannot in luxrender or something else, in the glitchy unrealistic way. after all, if i wanted an extremely photo-realsitic picture, i do have a camera…
