Me and Arshlevon had a great idea in the car on Sunday for a new comp: Redesign a board game character.
Any reinterpretation would work. You could do a chess piece, a playing card character, etc. I always love reinventing things.
2,500 triangles, one 512x512 color, and one 256x256 color

i had an idea of a Metal Gear character challenge(after playing a game or two lately).
something like (weapon/skill) (animal name) or an emotion/idea. examples Revolver Ocelot, Vulcan Raven, The Fear, The Boss.. and make a character that exemplifies that attribute.
and then i'll be able to model my kick-ass 2,500 triangle domino character
-edit- hmm... I was just looking at that wink emoticon, and it actually looks like he has some kind of spastic eye problem
Snemmy, that's not so much an idea, but an idea for names. People could do pretty much anything. And if I remember, those challenges don't get as much participation.

well that's what these posts are for right? breaking down ideas and getting to better workable ones
say 2,000 polys, and a 128x and a 64x
I like poop's suggestion.
I vote for putting a "current challenge" box on the frontpage.

I second this. Would be a great idea. A news post atleast everytime a new challenge starts and when one ends and enters the "voting" stage.
Keep upping that post count KDR

I second the "doesn't have to be cute" and "chess pieces" ideas.
That's what I was thinking anyway. Also, like was already posted, I never said cute. You could reinterpret a Rock-a-doodle monopoly guy, hahaha.
Not remake.
Obviously everyone should have input, as some people might not have entered yet because nothing has interested them, but maybe weight should be given to the people's votes who are most likely going to enter/finish.
Just a thought.
edit: I mean I think it might have got more response if it had been 'model a room of a haunted house' or something else that included floor, sky, walls.. environment stuff
The "environment" challenge became something that no one had specifically mentioned. Then again, those people weren't mentioning any specifics. SO YOU ALL FAILED!!! hahaha..j/k, but could you imagine?
Moving on, when's this battle of the board going to begin, bitches?
You sir, are my hero.
The body of the last contest isn't even cold yet, and you want to move on to her sister?

He's well rested because he didn't exert himself on the last one. OH SNAP.
There are definitely a few board games you could go realistic with such as Clue and Operation. hmmm Operation haha.

lol I was thinking the exact same thing!
still, strike while the irons hot! as they say.
Just to add my two cents about challenges; we always go with public opinion. Sometimes my judgement is a little off and I make it too challenging, other times we strike gold and the challenge is just right (polycount town, halloween PSP, SDdemon).
And yes, this is the official thread to talk about what should the next challenge! (although it was like the chest burster scene from alien)
Hopefully we'll see a lot of variety; you'd be surprised what ends up as a game...
My original thought is that it would need to be constrained to classic board games, Monopoly, Checkers, Mousetrap, etc. No DnD or Hellgate London, or Starwars monopoly. Also it should be vaguely recognizeable as a reinterpretation. Meaning that making a modern day Aston Martin and saying it's the monopoly car, would be out.
