The contest is closed by the way just in case anyone was unsure of that :) I have taken all submissions that meet the criteria and placed them in this journal for the judges to easily see which go into which category! 

Again thank you to everyone who partook! Without you, their wouldn't have been a contest :la:

Offical rules for judges to read over:

Category 1 - Fanart - 3 Dimensional category: 
The 3D piece must fall under the parameters of what classifies art as "fan -art". There are no poly restrictions/etc on these 3D pieces, but you must model someone else's pre existing work. It can be anything: my little pony, avatar, borderlands, harry potter, whatever! As long as the content you are modeling is copyrighted by someone else. You must give credit to them in your artist description of your entry.  It can also be artists work on DA but that artist must be given credit and must be asked permission first. 

Category 2 - Digital art - 3 Dimensional category: 
This must be 100% original work. (This can include pre-paid models, free models, etc as long as credit is given if needed and the scene/image is still done by you. 100% original that you're not stealing someone else's work, or using models you don't have permission to use, etc) You cannot 3D model someone else's work (ie: seeing a 2d character on deviant art and modeling it, you need proper permission first!), and majority of the content must be made by you (can include composition, lighting, pose, scene, etc if models are bought/free). No poly restrictions/etc apply. Digital 3D work applies, not Traditional 3D work like sculptures, figurines, etc. 

 Category 3 - Designs and Interfaces - Game Development art - 3d game art 

This 3D piece must be designed with game development in mind. This 3D art must be able to go into a game engine, or ready and able too and polycounts/texture restrictions/engine restrictions/etc should be considered. Some game development parameters include, a poly count limit, texture size limits of 4098x4098 max, etc. Consider the limits you would see for games on console, handheld, mobile or PC and apply them to your model. Please state what limitations you gave yourself in your artist comments.  You can make up your own restrictions but please keep them "believable". I will have some articles up this week which will help explain some restrictions/etc you can use for your piece. When in doubt ask, :) (Smile)
(you may team up with a 2D artist/concept artist provided that they give you permission. )
The work you are modeling though has to be 100% original or using non copyrighted work. Like i stated above team work does happen in game development, so you can team up with a 2d artist/concept artist provided the rights to their work isn't bought by someone else/company and they give you 100% permission to do so.

Each piece you create must be able too, if there was no category to submit them too for the contest, easily fall into one of the above 3 categories. 

So we are down to the nitty gritty now folks!! Less then one week left until contest ends :D We already have some fantastic entries but if you want a shot at some stellar prizes be sure to get your entries in by no later then December 21st at 11:59pm EST!

Your theme 3D artists: the contest has to do with what the differences of the 3 digital 3D categories are and you must create a piece of 3D art, can be anything at all, as long as it fits within the 3 categories "restrictions". These categories reflect the DA categories here and I will outline them below.
