So it's easy : image A wins !

Seriously, image A reminds me somewhat of Yellow Submarine, except
for the color.  It's much more imaginative and promising than image
B.  To my eyes, of course.

well i think you both should take an extra week or so, and work only on
texturing. for the modelling i really like A. but B could be good with some
nice texturing.

nice work, both of you.

You are right, but I think we're both resting up for round 2.

Thank you.

Thank you to both of you. The mesh objects include the thing on top, the top
part of the hull, and some pieces of the engine.

Thank you for voting.

I didn't want that to be a factor, but I know you were just kidding.

Thank you for voting.

Unfortunately, both images lost a lot of detail. This is inexperience on the
part of myself and my friend.

I will take your comment as a challenge. My new goal is to make an image
about which the last three words will not be said.

Thank you for voting.

I hope I did not give the wrong impression. We did use weeks to create the
images. I spent almost 20 hours on mine, mostly writing macros. We started
on Jan 1.

Regarding envy, I am very envious of you for being able to sketch. I can
hardly draw a smiley face!


Thank you for voting.

?? I don't get it. When I said that is nice work for hand coding I didn't
mean there was an even more impressive way to go about it, I meant that was
really good work ESPECIALLY considering it is hand coded.

I understand what you meant. My comment was meant to be a little bit
houmorous. Guess I failed.
