Fast modeling competition. Edition 9 : Modern lamp

Long time since last speed modeling competition...so lets make one :).
The idea of it is to do model in less than 2 h. Every 2 weeks we will choose one the best model and person who done it will win one of our CD's (can choose which, only Archexteriors,Archinteriors, Archmodels or Textures4ever)

Subject for this weeks is: modern lamp.

There are two things that you must to do to start in this contest:

1. Post in this thread screen shot from viewport of your model (wire and shaded).
2. Eventually you can post some render, but we wouldn't entertain it in final judgment.
3. Write how long it take to model it.


Lets the competition begin.

COMPETITION END - 11 VIII 2008

competition end on 11 VIII 2008, correct?;)

ups :)..yes on 11 VIII 2008 :)...thx simonhc

hi folks :)

Time modeling: 15min

How many Models I can post here?

cheers :]

modellign really is not my speicality so thought i'd join in

anyway here is wire and shaded

well.. a simple question:
the focus of this competition is the modeling skills or the lamp design ?
so, the piece can be a reproduction ?
thanks ;)

modeling skills, so it can be reproduction

Here's a model which I started by drawing the cross-section of the folding shape of the pendant, using just basic splines. I then copied this section, mirrored it, and rotated it 36*. I then joined these two splines at their vertices, and added a surface modifier to that shape. I continued by adding a symmetry modifier, and then I adjusted the edges of the mesh until all of the seams between the symmetrical pieces were round and smooth. After this point, all I had to do to finish the model was add a couple more rotated symmetry modifiers, and smooth out the remaining edges. The metal hardware was added using basic 3d primitives.

Total Time: ~1 hr. 50 min.

i will enter this comp. isa

Hi!

It'll be my first speed modelling here, so here we go!

Time: 1h 50min

Hello,

I'm in, and this is my modern lamp.

I took half an hour, from modelling, materials and lighting, and over fifteen minutes to post-production and viewport grabing :)

Hi there! Here is my modern lamp. Modeling and shading took about a half an hour.

well, how do u know if the times are actualy real time modeling, what if someone cheats saying that the modeling took him less than it actualy did?

Because we are all honest cg artist :) and there is no cheating here :P

Hello!

This is my modern lamp.

Took me 1 hour and 5 minutes to model and shading it. 8 minutes to render.

hehe nice one j0haan :)

Hi, here's my first post here in this forum.

I'm a newbie in 3D modelling and I wanted to start with this competition. Well, my modern lamp is a low compsumption light that levitates thanks to magnetic fields, and works without wires or bateries. Also, it can be regulate and set up with the computer bia "wi-fi" because of its antennas.

Here are the pictures and good luck for all!!

Brainstorming: 10 min
Modelling: 40 min
Texturing: 15 min
Rendeing: 20-30 min

nice design and rendering i like it

Hello to all. Here is my post for the fast modeling of a lamp. Here i want to mention that when i took step for post after modeling i saw that it required a modern Lamp, but my model is like a classical lamp. So i want to give some excuses. 1) here the design of the lamp is not so important, the modeling procedure is the important thing. 2) not only the shape but also material defines the classical and modernity. I think by these excuses my model can be accepted for this competition.

I have given the procedure of the modeling. It will not take from me again to model it more than 2 hours with shading. First time it took from me much time to decide the procedure to make it. I have used here nurbs modeling, loft end editable poly.

Thank you everybody. I wish the very best for all.

Hi,

My model is a reproduction of a beautiful Magna lamp designed by Lievore Altherr Molina Studio

The model itself isn't complicated, but I wanted to focus on resolving topology for problematic shapes that may not be visible at first sight. Check the timelapse.

Wires and shaded attached

Modeling time: 1 hour 5 minutes

Hi all ... this will be my first speed modelling challenge ever :)

Here's my model :) ... time: about 1 hour

My two cents.
A personal rendition of Kartell's Bourgie lamp.
Done in Blender and rendered in Vray. About 1h30m modeling time.
10,000 polys, 16,000 vertices.
EDIT: added a shaded viewport screen grab.

I like this design is very beautiful (kartell´s bourgie lamp). Can you send me your model on matchmac@centrum.sk , I´am an architekt and will use it on my renderings. Thats would help me. Thanks Bertrandb

Hi all,here is my speed model.i made this in exact 54 minutes.
i m very busy,so i dont have time,but i want take part in this competition.
Since it was written that the model can be regenarated,so i downlaod the PDF representation of Archmodels50,and make my own model....
good luck to all.
Love u evermotion team..

hi how can i add my images to this forum

time: 2h (idea and modeled)

Hello there. This is 3d representation of moooi rabbit lamp.
It took me about 2h to do it.
Best regards.

Nice......i'm wondered... but where is the light source? is those the cat's eyes? Can u give us the procedure so that we can also make such models by 2 hours also..

First you need to model a rabbit. this took me about 1,5 h
Next you must do some peltMapping and unwarp a rabbit about 15 minutes.
At the end you add a displacement mod with some fur texture and.

I wonder of Tolas's and 3dspel's , may be they will fall over ....

hello everybody,
i did this model a while ago and i lost the 3d file....so 10x for this competition
because i modeled it again (that's how much i like it :) )...hope u like it too.

modeling software : hexagon2
modeling time : about 1h

It's mine.
I know it's rather simple but i like its effect.
hmmm........ (?)
i'm going to try it again.
2h01' ( lessen, pls :p )

Nice...................

here is another lamp i did special for this contest...hope u like it :)

modeled in roughly 1h

Hi All,

Here is the 3D lamp. I've designed it in 10 mins.

looking forward to your reply. :cool:

Hi, my first post here, i hope you like it.
Took me around 30minutes, i used Vray for shading and render.

Modeling time: about 1h
Style: Poly modeling and spline
Note: If you known what to do it takes less time , I think 35-45min.
Below I present wire and shaded or very simple render which is only approximation of my idea.

Good luck

here's another entry...tribute to Calatrava : turning torso lamp :)
hope u like it

modeling time : about 1h

Hello! Here's my modern light, which I made in 1 hours and 17 minutes.
The default idea is from Max Viewport, I hope you will be enjoy! ;)

hi ) this my two lamp. time: 2h
taoklai: cool works
