Cool The 'High' Rollers Contest

If you love your cars' ride height exceeding most pedestrian bridges, pr your inner-redneck gets hot flushes every time you see some Saturn or Oldsmobile being rolled over by some ridiculous sized tyres, then this Official SMC Contest is for you...

It's Monster Trucks people, and we want to see how you got making 'em!!

As any American would tell you, bigger is best, and that's just the sort of attitude we need you all to have for this Contest.

Monster Truck: An automobile, typically styled after pickup trucks, modified or purposely built with extremely large wheels and suspension.

It's simple; take a vehicle, any vehicle, jack it up 6+ feet into the air and add tyres the size of VW Beetles and presto!! You've got yourself a ride that any hillbilly would happily trade in his wife/sister for!!

-------------------------

Contest Specifics:

- The modeling, texturing and rendering of one Monster Truck.

- Your ride can be any make/model of a 4-or-more wheeled vehicle.

- It can be low, mid or high-poly, however technical execution and creativity will be taken on-board when it comes to judging.

- Model is to be shown in the 'High' Rollers section, with the heading "High Rollers Contest: *car make/model*", and kept up-to-date as much as possible.

- Final renders must include a Front and Rear shot. Other renders are welcome, however aren't compulsory.

- No teaming up. This must be solely your own project.

- Models can be customised versions of your olds works.

-------------------------

Derby Day:

Derby Day, the day of which all Contest entires must be submitted by, will be 2 months from today, on September the 28th, 10am GMT.

Once this has been done, 1 week will be given for voting, and then the winners will be announced and award an Official SMCars.net Gold, Silver or Bronze Medal.

Good luck to all!!

Giant cars driving over Saturns and Oldsmobiles? What about a Saturn crushing some of those monstertrucks?

Sounds like an excellent start for that excellent idea !

I won't be in, but I hope there will be dozens of finished vehicles, and that every contender will enjoy working on his entry. Good luck to everyone !

Rsenal, there's a few 3D Monster Trucks that people have modeled on here. You could use them

You can find a lot of useful reference on the rc modelling websites
eg - Main Index - RCNitroTalk Gallery

BUT - I have no idea how accurate they are compared to the full size trucks.
