Contest goal:

The goal in this contest is to find a 3D model of a human/animal/alien and take it into your 3D software, and create a CUSTOM (not a default set like those in MAX and MAYA) set of bones/rigging for either the whole character/the face/or the hand(s). Not the feet on their own or the torso. We want the most complex parts here.

Once you have rigged your character pose them in a realistic pose and create a scene around them. This doesn't count if you choose to do the face, for the face create a believable expression. If you choose to do the hand(s) then the hand(s) MUST be holding something in realistic way.

Have fun with this and take your time, rigging and skinning is a difficult skill but very necessary if you want to advance. NO POSER MODELS ALLOWED we all know their bones import into Maya/MAX and VUE. So definitely NO POSER models.
