Hey Jedi, he's about 6.3Inches, i worked in a scale where 1inch is one foot.... not sure if thats a 1:6 ratio or what but he's not that big... I had fun making MC but i did the Flood literally 4 hours before the deadline so thats why they look horrible...

Hey guys...wazzup!

Me and Jarrod had a lot of fun looking these over. We were really impressed as well. Hardward and armor are not easy things to pull off and frankly we try to avoid sculpting them like the plague.

The Phobos sculpt was really elegant and well done. Very clean and it had great, subltle movement.

The Zaahn Sculpt was without a doubt the most complete overall vision. Really nicely put together.

I loved the blood and the whole "wounded warrior" thing with the Canis Lupis. But then, I can never have enough blood on my sculpts.

My favorite bit on any of the sculptures was the question mark on the Darkwulfs piece. Classic!

Any of you guys feel free to email or PM me anytime with questions or just to talk shop.

Thanks to Teamonster for inviting us to participate.

Keep sculpting, my fellow freaks and geeks!

Hello guys, first of all thank you for the opportunity that give us with contests like these to show our talent.

Really all the works of the competition deserve great recognition, since each has its work and great detail.

Second, thanks to the Shifletts brothers for taking the time to evaluate the work.

I hope we are in communication and have me here for what is offered.

Att:

Oscar A. Camacho V.

Phobos.

brandonshiflett thanks for the kind words. I went out and bought the entire halo series to get a better idea who these characters were, and i really tried to stay true to the theme of the contest.

FYI, I had no idea the Flood existed until about a month ago, and i've played halo 1 since it came out in a multiplayer setting... just never single player...

Thanks again to TeaMonster!! I had a lot of fun this time around, PRC was AWESOME...

When's the next one? (i'd even be willing to help with the prizes

)

Oh god, not played Halo single player? Okay I'm a PS3 fanboy ('Darkwulf71' for any PSN invites) but I completed Halo in 5 sittings because the story is so well done and riveting it's worth it.

Find someone who's got an xbox and that game gathering dust, I promise you won't be dissapointed.

Zaahn, next years I hope will be a big challenge, everyone will design their own (something) around a themed brief. And I think there will be tea added as a prize this time

Come play Halo with me I love it, it'd be cool to chat sculpting while shooting each other mohhaha (pm me for me xbox gamer tag)

Oh and I've just updated halomission.com with all the winners

**RaptorArts** · October 14th, 2009, 12:43 PM

Oh man!!!! I would have entered had I known about this! Damn...
It wasn't advertised well... I hope to get into the next Sculpting jam.
