Poll is up, results/voters are public, and it closes in 30 days. I just went in and choose one from you guys who posted a list because there can only be 18 choices, sorry. You don't have to post in the thread if you vote, I will be able to see everyone who votes and those names will go into the hat. The winner will choose a few of the car's final details and I'll post progress shots as it comes together.
To avoid pointless reading if you're just reading this for the first time. You have until April 1st to put in your choice for the car I'm going to be rendering. After April 1st, you have to vote (in a poll) from the list of cars that everyone else picked, but you'll also get to vote on how the car is going to look in the same poll. I did notice that there can only be 18 choices in a poll - we'll burn that bridge when we get there. So SHOUT OUT! Send me an e-mail, PM, use this thread, whatever you wanna do. Everyone who gets involved goes into the hat to win a print of the final drawing PLUS choose the last couple custom touches. And there is no need to feel disappointed if you don't win, cause I'm gonna be selling prints on the cheap after it's all said and done. Everyone can get a piece of the project the whole community had a hand in sculpting.
Pointless reading below.
OK so here's what I wanna do: keep it simple, you vote for any car you like, I draw votes out of a hat and whoever I pick gets a print of the resulting car rendering signed and shipped to your house. Prints of the rendering then go on sale and the first handful get it dirt cheap and after that it gets a "regular" price.
Take a look here http://odellstudios.blogspot.com/ for some of my more current work.
This is just for fun so feel free to post suggestions to make it even more juicy and I'll settle on something more official in the next week or so. My initial thought is to simply take e-mails and PMs for a month or so, post progress of the rendering so you guys can see how it's coming along and go from there. Just make sure to put something like "vote 69 Camaro" (or whatever) in the subject and I'll put em into a pot. Whoever gets drawn picks wheels and color, maybe a few custom mods and I put something together. Or it could be like a community thing where you guys shout out suggestions to narrow the car down to a group of say 5 or 6 models, then ya vote from the list (this is where the winner is picked I suppose) and everyone steers the direction of the design through a poll - like vote for color, wheels etc. That could be cool. Actually that sounds pretty cool, but I'm tired so it could be crazy. Let me hear some thoughts.
