For the fun of it, I uploaded a video of my anime mascot. Do check it out to see how it's done!

The character could have a huge range, as sampled in the pic....

what about a user customizable zappy?
(If you can do some more the single parts can be switched so everyone
can create it's own zappy like the spiff one
Finally your gfx talent is great.

Better yet, xbmc donators over $50 get a custom Zapy. (Not like that would be taking complete advantage of da-anda
)

Snailosaurus (made out of Plasticine). Makes a great 2d cartoon or 3d toy whatever. Feel free to use it for anything. Thanks.

x23piracy Wrote:Finally your gfx talent is great.Thanks, but I don't think I'm talented. I've once been interested in drawing, but didn't have the time for practicing, so I stopped with it some years ago. The contest actually inspired me to pic this hobby up again. It's a nice contrast to coding all day.
Sidenote: Everybody can draw - it's all about practicing and looking at things in your daily life more closely (shapes, reflections, lights, materials,...). At least I've been told so once and can for me say that's true. Drawing is not about talent - the only talent you can have is that you naturally have a better look at things and can visualize those better - drawing itself is mostly practice. So feel inspired, pic up a pencil and start drawing!

I'm pretty sure Stephen King said that same thing about writing. No one is a good author. Some people are just better at seeing the world.

I totally agree with that, and say that a lot whenever people tell me they wish they were as "talented" as I was.
It's so totally true, and has been scientifically proven that anyone can draw.

Lots of good entries. Zappy is still to date my favorite still. Nice work to all..

Good. Thank you.
I still have some time then (1 day-ish)...

The deadline is near, so here is my summary.

All entries are so awesome, it will be a hard decision for the jury...
Best luck to all.

I am jealous of your patience and dedication to learning the skill!
But you have to admit, it comes more naturally to some than others.

This is just a small version, It can be larger if necessary. Colors can change easily too.
