Something Fishy

Bit of a twist to this one: your model must include the attached fish model (apologies in advance!)


All the usual rules apply, and the fish must be recognisable in the submitted image.

Closing time for entries is 7th February 6:00 PM GMT.

Rules can be found here: viewtopic.php?f=291&t=16530

Have fun!

The fish is only watertight without it's fins, so will it drown or swim?

not an entry BTW

That's because the fins are 'flat'- so push pull them a little and they should stay as part of the main manifold... Like this

PS This is not an entry either... ;)

Another 'not an entry'.


SU crashed half way through and i though id lost the model, only to have it reappear next time i opened SU. Had forgotten how much time id spent on it by that point, though, so just kept going for the fun of it.

Hi Lee,

Here are the "Rules" (in the Gallery > Competition subforum - just the competition itself ws made a global announcement):
viewtopic.php?f=291&t=16530

@Remus - just for this reason, it would be good to post this link in the very first post of the "announcements".

Very good point gai (and thanks for reminding me leedeetee), didnt even cross my mind, as usually the thread is in the comp forum and only a thread or 2 away form the rules thread.

Many thanks.

So, just to clarify, for this particular competition, competitors can model ANYTHING they like in 30 minutes so long as they include the fish?

And also; are competitors trusted to keep their own timekeeping and only model within the time limit? (I am trustworthy, honest!) Or is there a function within SU that times the amount of minutes spent on a particular model?!

Thanks! :thumb:

Yep, you can model anything you like as long as it includes at least one fish.

Your trusted to keep your own time :) In the past people have screen captured the whole thing but its quite a lot of hassle so its in no way compulsory.

Thanks for the answers. And I presume it is just one entry per individual? :)

You can upload up to 3 entries if you want to (i think it says 'as many as you want, but be sensible' in the rules, but going by the number of entries we've had recently i think 3 is a sensible limit.)

I don't know whether to be Remus ' sensible' :ugeek:

Or.....

Go with the Gaieus 'crazy' suggestion :twisted:

Although when I think about , if I follow Remus' advice I'll be only 1.5hrs closer to death

yet......

If I follow Gaieus advice I'll be dead without ever gaining the 'Formerly known as Gold' Purple Challenge Winner Badge

if you ask me it all smells a little fishy!

After reading my previous post it might sound( or read ) like i was being an a$$hole, but it was meant in jest. Hopefully no offence was caused and if so i offer my apolgies.

Anyway here's my entry, it's a 'Fishtank'

Fish Tank Plain.jpg


Fish Tank Renderred.jpg


Fish Tank Textured.jpg


Fish Tank Wireframe.jpg


PS - I just noticed that i couldn't upload multiple files, is this an error on my end or is this normal? I browsed to each file after clicking '+' but when i selected 'Upload' only one file uploaded?

I'm using the latest Firefox with no script blocking addons enabled
