Anyone want to do an Exquisite corpse?

For those who don't know what it is, basically you divide a canvas into 3 equal parts, you draw the head in the top part, draw a few lines in the middle section and cover up the your work, the second artist does that same thing, and once the 3rd artist is done you recombine the work.

(1, 2, and 4 are the best examples of what I'm going for)



If people are interested I'll give people a week to email me their head (only heads this week), and I'll email them back with a next piece with a few lines to help place the torso (I will delete the head/torso so there will be no cheating. I'll combine them once I get them all in).

Don't post anything here before it gets combined.

Here's a psd to get you started http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2184180/Corpse.psd

I've played this game, but wouldn't it be interesting to do it in 3D? You could leave the lowest verts/edges for the next person.

That might be interesting, I'd be up for it, thoughts?
I like it better than my idea.

Never seen a 3D exquisite corpse before. Quick google search brings up nothin'. You should totally go for it.

And give Belias the middle tile.

kp did one, it was a bathroom. Thread's still in P&P, I think. He also started the 2D one here that was the stall graffiti.

you would leave the lowest row of faces though to avoid smoothing group errors (with verts you could basically go in every direction, right?)

OH FUN!

Someone start a 3D one!

this is why polycount fucking beats DA :P ppl come up with such awesome ideas!!!!

count me in ill try and do a 2d one durring lunch today whooop whoop

ZacD

Okay I'll do both and just see how many people I get and try to make it work.

The 3D, this week model to the arm pits (including the arm pits) I'll email everyone with their next part next week, try to limit it to around 200-5k tri's per part. I figure for people that want to sculpt or do low poly to leave a range that will work for everyone. You can texture your part if you like, too.

Just like to add that this is an outstanding idea, ZacD. Good stuff.

This is really awesome. I did it once in school only we used 2 of the same size canvas and 2 person teams. So one person wasn't stuck waiting for the other to finish, we stuck the two together drew some guides then broke off. Leaving 4 inches for blending when it was all finished.

One guy lamented about being stuck doing the feet (wanted to be a rockstar and do the head). So he created an upside down head. It came out looking like a bazaar playing card. If it wasn't for his massive ego's stumbling into it, I would have thought it was cool.

Sounds amazing to me, I think you could potentially get good press from the 3D version if it turns out ok. Might ask some class mates if they want in.
