3rd place here I come.

 

I blew it on the last one, but I had a lot of fun watching everyone else's character develop. I hope some more WIP threads turn up, I loved watching all the Unity folks compete and encourage each other, it was awesome.

 

I am so excited about this contest. I wish there were more responses with WIP posts.

Here is a link to poly count of a lot of your competition.

Congrats to the Winner and runner-up's!

Some really nice characters.

 

Hrmmm, would have bumped Nightshade to 2nd, put Maw in 3rd, and dropped Vampy to RU status.

But yeah, definitely congrats to them... some overall awesome characters there.
