One of my main reasons is the decision to remove rendering restrictions, but generally I'm not feeling the war this time round.
After a week or so off I got bored and decided to pick up my mech again.

Yeah, so I quit dominance war.

War party
It's that time of year again.
A time when relationships become strained, eyesockets become dark, cheeks become hollow and hard drives become full.
By this I mean Dom war 4 started (roughly on time) and the world of the 3d nerd is alight.
Here's my effort so far - I can't remember the details of the brief but I'm confident I'll be able to shoehorn this into the "abomination" category without too much effort.

Abandoned
The missus is on holiday...
I got bored so I made a body to attach this head I'd been doodling to. I'm trying to do it quick. Theres a bunch of details to add and the only textures that have any work in them so far are the head ones.
anyway...

Something a bit clever
I won with the witch !!
and..
My colleague Ian Wilson has posted these example videos on Vimeo to demonstrate how clever his Emotion AI engine is - I won't go into details here since you can find out more at http://www.emotionai.com/ but he's written a little brain that you can plug into a character to give him actual, genuine feelings and reactions to stimulus.
The reason I've posted this here is that I built the head and the 50 odd morphs required to support all the emotions. I also ran the custom head through Facegen which allowed us to generate a (theoretically) vast range of different faces without having to redo the facial morphs.
Anyway, here we go

Wee! She's finished
The witch is done.
This is a happy time for me since it was 80% zbrush work and I now feel like I've learned to use it well enough for it to be a commercially viable skill.
I don't want to jynx it but I'm pretty confident this is another low-poly comp win ;)
Here's some of the submitted images...
