Unfortunately i didn't have as much time as i would like for it to consider it finished, but work deadlines are more important... I think my client wouldnt understand that i wanted to have more time to work on my snail... >:D
Idea for eyes from browsing John Schwegels site... check it, great illustartions there.

Good luck to all who entered!
Cheers.

[daveneale]

my top 3 are:

1.Fvallejo. Really dig the style-cool colour scheme and interesting take

2.28thwing. Again-very cool style, simple but ver effective-the colours really vibrate

3.Brian young. I love the translucent slimeyness of the body...I also wish id taken the time to give the ridging on the shell that you did:)

Congrats to the winners and also all competitors!

New news!!! Maybe some of you might not check 3DTotal frontpage today, 3DTotal now has just lunched a new desktop wallpaper section. The idea started from we asked all the winners from ''Stylized Animal competitions'' (Highland Cow, Eagle, Octopus, Ant Eater ect) to showed off their skills to create their pieces to a wallpaper.The resule comes out very amazing, check it out!

http://www.3dtotal.com/home2/galler...p?cat=wallpaper

So the easy saying is top 3 winners will get an amazing exposure from :

1) featuring in 3DCreative magazine, download statistic is over 15,000 per issue!

2) will be asking to make (it is an optional) their pieces as wallpaper, then there will be promoted as a 3DTotal Daily Highlight from the frontpage for 5 days, of course all credits will be given to the artist. They will be seen many thousands of time as our visitors are exceed 50,000 per day now!!!! great exposure huh?
