My Favorite Toy Challenge - s2-speedy
 

Okay im going to enter.

Funnily enough, i was clearing my loft / Attic out the other day and came accorss aload of old toys so have recently seen them and had a blast from the past.

So im just saving my space and tempted to go with the ninja turtles...although not 100% sure yet. May change the toy yet...my sega mega drive was a favourite of mine, so was He-man, ghostbusters, mask, Manta Force...and aload more. But I think ill go with the turtles for now and maybe even the turtle van. :)

Should be fun. Good Luck to all who enter. :D

Good luck lets hope we can get a few people to join in this one :)

good luck mate

Thanks Guys. Im just gathering reference off the net....as just the other week i cleared my attic out and got rid of the actual turtle toys i used to play with. All those years in the attic doing nothing and when I actually need them....I throw them out lol...Oh well, Least we have the internet! :)

Bahahahah dont you bloody hate that!

Its typical aint it bullet >_<

So will begin modelling at the weeekend. Ive just been collecting reference and doing a technical drawing just so I get everything in place for when coming to Model. Heres the drawing below with different viewports.

Cheers,

Nice Work

Did you Draw them yourself?

Thanks arma. Yeh i drew them myself but had to look @ the model to get it all right. Then touched it up in photoshop. :)

Cool, Looking forward to the competition, just like the old days.

Although I was around for the turtle toys, I was a bit too old for them myself. Although I preferred the Eastman & Laird comic version over the cartoon.:D

cheers bullet

Sweet

That is nice work

makes me want to draw :)

Just not enuff time in my life at mo.. wish days were like 30-40 hours

Thanks Bullet, But I should be okay now. I collected a fair bit of reference in the week so might have enough. Ill let you know if I do later on though.

I've started the modelling now... began with the head. Pretty basic at the moe.

Sandman - I aim to model the newer versions of the toys which were based more on the look of the comic turtles. I like the look of these alot better than the cartoon versions. :)

Looks like a great start and that drawing is top notch.

Thanks Johnny :D

I will try and get more modelling done tonight. Hopefully I can finish the head if I have enough time.
