New User's Contest - March 2013

Sponsored by DAZ 3D & IgnisSerpentus


Are you new to the 3D World? Are you at the beginning stages of learning 3D rendering? Have you been around for a little bit but feel you could benefit from some feedback or instruction? Have you been around awhile and would like to help other members start their creative journey? Well then come and join the fun as we host our newest contest...

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

"Holding Hands"

We all need a hand from time to time, to help, to lend to hold. This month’s contest is about hands, hands that hold things or hold onto things.

Intent: To create a scene where the holding hand is the important part, posing, shaping and lighting, but also put the hand into a context of the image.

This months sponsor is IgnisSerpentus her store is here http://www.daz3d.com/ignisserpentus

I will be checking in on the WIP THREAD as will the rest of the Community Volunteers to try and help with anything you all may need.

For a list of the current contest rules, please see this thread: Contest Rules

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

When working on your submissions, if you would like to get feedback as you work or before posting your final image, please post your image to the WIP THREAD . People will be popping in to the WIP THREAD to give you some critique and advice on your entry and help along the way. Please keep all comments on entries etc to the WIP THREAD as well because comments or requests for help/feedback/advice will be removed from the contest thread and merged into the WIP THREAD . This thread is only for posting final contest submissions.

For those veterans of the forums that would like to help, because this contest is designed for the beginner to learn from, we will be randomly selecting posts offering helpful tips and/or critiques to receive a special voucher as well so whether you are a seasoned artist or an aspiring one, there is fun for everyone!


Closing Date: March 31th 2013

    Older sisters can be wonderful during your first day in 'big skewl'. I have very vivid memories of that day ..... a while ago.

    Not really a new user, but new to posting in this part of the forum!

    I don't usually get involved in these challenges, but the theme this month inspired a render, so there's no point in not posting it!

    I call it "Holding Hands" - after the theme of this challenge.

    Glad to have participated in the contest and looking forward to next months because I am wanting to learn more about materials shaders and such, I do ok but mostly by trial and guess. And BTW thanks to the sponsor I really enjoyed browsing your store and will be back to get several items.

    I sent a PM as instructed but it does not show in my "sent" folder that it went through....not sure if it did and the forum is buggy or what...

    You have to check the box to save a copy to your sent folder, it is not automatic.
