Blender LIVE Hour of Power Challenge #18

Blender LIVE Hour of Power Challenge!

Hello Blendermaniacs! We just had a VERY successful Hour of Power Challenge! So here’s to more!

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BUY OR PURCHASE OR SIGNUP FOR ZOOM

Read the guidelines HERE: https://www.blendermania3d.com/groups/blender-live-hour-of-power-challenge/forum/topic/hour-of-power-guidelines-rules-explanations/

Go ahead and comment if you want to be a part of it! The ones who just participated can comment as well however if there are people who didn’t do it last week, they will take the spot of the people who did do it last week. But go ahead and anyone comment! Even if you did it already as people may drop out etc.

What is it? 10 participants will be Blending for an hour to create the best piece of work within that hour…all on LIVE screen sharing!

How does it work? 10 participants will sign up during the week to take part in this. Then on a designated day (for now we will do saturday 8/1/20 at 12 PST) the 10 participants will join the meeting (we will be using Zoom) and there all 8 participants will share their screen (you can also share your video and audio so you can talk but it’s not required. You COULD JUST share the screen and that’s fine so no one sees or hears you) I will then give the theme RIGHT there on the spot. You will then have 10 minutes to think of what you want to make, gather reference images etc. AFTER the 10 minutes, the challenge will start and you have 1 hour to create a render based on the given theme! Once the hour is up, I will tell everyone to hit the render image button and everyone will render out their image. We will then vote for the best render and winner will get points, Certificate and Badge. This is for ANY level! It’s for fun, non judgemental environment! So even if you are bran new, enter! ?

Can I still watch even if I don’t participate? Absolutely! If you don’t want to be one of the 10 participating in this, you can join the livestream and just watch these awesome Blendermaniacs do Blender and chat! I encourage anyone and everyone to join even if you are not participating! This will create an awesome group dynamic for an hour of us all getting together and having fun in Blender! Bring some popcorn and watch others do some awesome Blender, maybe you’ll learn a thing or two!

The first 10 people to comment below “I want do participate” or something of the like will be picked for this coming Blender Hour of Power Challenge.

**THIS IS FOR FUN! DON’T BE SCARED IF YOU THINK YOU ARE A BEGINNER OR NOT THAT GOOD. THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS IS TO HAVE FUN AND PRACTICE IN AN INTERACTIVE WAY. SIGNUP EVEN IF YOU ARE BRAND NEW! ? **

Boxing cockroach :slight_smile: Theme was fear. I was going for hands but I haven’t modeled hands before so they turned out like gloves lol.

Lightening is Scary.

Fear. Was trying to create the “Face Hugger” from Aliens. Hit a few issues. Tried to sculpt it but things went wrong. Didn’t end up looking like I imagined but was still fun trying.

Fear of Heights

Can’t wait to see all the participants projects on this HOP. This was hard for a topic.

This clown is crawling out of the shadows under the bed.

A true fear of mine, one that happens constantly at that. At work, family gatherings, chats… Often even when I’m present, I’m looked over like I’m not even there. I speak and people speak over me. I manage to catch someone’s attention, someone else steals it by cutting in. Announcements get made and no one thinks to inform me. Socializing is hard for me. I’m an introvert by nature and further burned by experience. I look around and all have their pairs and groups, but I’m never part of them…

This is both figuratively and literally what it looks like rolled into one. A fear that I’m simply not important enough to anyone… My heartbreak with the one who was my world only worsened this. Not only do I have most of the outside world as a place of feeling alone, but my refuge is gone, too. This leaves me with the display. This picture is very personal and I hope it conveys the right feelings.

Couldn’t remember where it was to make hair denser. Found it now and made this render. Slight improvement but not by much.

I understand that feeling very well. Constant pushes to be social and accepted are met with rejection, or being overlooked. It’s hard to be in the loop, when no one cares enough to notice you’re trying to get in. I’m glad you feel you can share that here, and I only hope the best for you
