I had a quick go at a monkey concept:


Is that a monkey? : ) Maybe if we give him a banana? (I think it's a him).

Feel free to suggest changes if that's not what you had in mind. I haven't done anything in 3D yet.

Perfect!

Superb job!Too bad the tanks can't be made to jump around like fleas or can they ... ??? In any event, fleas aren't required on a monkey, now if it was a dog map ... well your dog maybe, not mine. He's sleeping peacefully at my feet, flea free.

Seems the fleas prefer me and leave him alone.

Outstanding work all of you.

the color of the background of that pic of the monkey a few posts abovhas brought forth some inspiration. Thus I have a question and an idea. The question is:

Can the color of the atever be changed so that it looks like milk?


if so, then the idea is:

---make the land look llike cereal pieces (aplha-bits, cocoa puffs, or maybe lucky charms with all its different marshmallows) and let the kids have their own little "islands style" map.

The color of the water can be changed to suit you. Good idea.The monkey has had me thinking the past day or so. Do they still teach children the story of the monkey and the crocodile. If so perhaps a big green one would work well with a monkey too. What I've gotten onto here is childrens stories. Hansel and Grettal, Jack and the Beanstalk, Humpty Dumpty, 3 Blind Mice ??? Anyway, maybe those aren't good examples, I just woke up. The point was giving children maps that relate to stories they already know. Not having a clue about what children are being taught, other than Seseame Steet, Blues Clues and Barney, I'm afraid I can't progress any further. Maybe you can. Oh, Dr. Suess would be good I guess. Horton, The Grinch, bla bla bla. What I want now is coffee.

Good luck and best wishes,

Great idea Rom the kids think it's wonderful they want Bratz Lips though we keep coming back to that all the time. Stubborn yungin must be related to her mother. Would be cool to have some of the characters you mentioned as tanks. And I love the cereal idea P.

Bratz Lips tank or map?

She says tank.

OK will work on it when I get back.

Anyone got a recommendation for a tank for this mod?

Been looking to get back into modeling. I need to brush up on the ol' model-making skills.

This post for an idea.

I was going to work on it when I got back from computer conference but feel free to give it a go.

tank concept

i was thinking maybe we could have whichever characters sat in the chair. maybe a penguin? : )

I like it. Does that make me a kid?

"beer cans or similar?"

How about foam NERF darts?

Which gives me an idea: How about making lots of different silly projectiles for the mod?

If there's interest, I'd like to make some. It'd be a perfect project to help me remember how milkshape worked.

Blender has a lot more potential if you have to relearn anyway.
