SMC 52: Praxinoscope

What the hell is a Praxinoscope? well its probably the nearest thing to a television in Victorian times! there is a few different styles and you will get brownie points if you can successfully animate it (BUT NOT REQUIRED AND JUST VIRTUAL EXTRA POINTS :p)

DEADLINE : January 15, 2010

I didnt know I was the one to start the new SMC (But it will leave some room for you to make a special end year image)

RULES:
1) Use any 3D software you choose.
2) Create the model(s) within a 2 hour time limit. It will take you little time so... Participate!
3) You may enter as many times as you wish.
4) Your entry will also include a wireframe screen grab before SDS (subdivision) has been applied. This is included to help others learn modeling techniques.

As you can see your great work will count! How could we block beautiful works just because they don't use a specific software? :mrgreen:

Yeah, Carrara 7 Pro and modeled in Hexagon, some painting in 3D - although didn't take much care with it.

Had the blurry eye today, so not sure what I messed up. heh
