I am looking for a very high quality render of the Opux.
Unfortunately, the existing model is a bit dated. While it's very good it's not quite good enough for the purpose I want to use it for (which is EVE related of course).
What I am looking for, is someone to re-make the model of the Opux to the quality of the new Vista models that will be released in a later patch, only I don't want to wait that long. IĈm not looking for just a re-skinned Opux but a full blown model with more details; of course it must look like the original Opux, just more badass.
What I require:
1. High quality model in whatever format (Maya, 3d Studio Max).
2. An export of the final render with several different angles with decent lighting.
The only restriction is that the model must be top notch quality, as in such high quality CCP steals it and uses it for the new model of the Opux in the later patch.  If youĈre not an experienced model or skinner you may feel free to try, but I am only interested in high quality work. Anyone that is good at modeling/skinning may enter.
What you get in return:
2.0 Billion ISK.

I think I know the question to this but thought it would be worth it to ask,
Do you actually want a "game compatible" model that constricts to the standard requirements of game engines? Or are other modeling techniques alright?
Also with CCP totally redoing many of the concepts especially skinning, would you prefer a higher grade but strict adherence to the current skin? Or allow a few artist embellishments?

What is this model going to be used for? Are you looking for an optimized version for game/animation use? A "detail at all costs" version appropriate for high-resolution still images? Any software limitations (any shaders specific to your prefered renderer, etc)?

No, the model does not have to be game compatible. It's not going to be used in the EVE Client.

It will not be used in any game, therefore it does not have to be compatible with anything specifically. Do whatever it takes to get the highest possible detail.

You always have the option to not work on it.
Anyways, if I was a modeler, for 2 billion ISK, I would do it.

Yea, true on the option not to do it. But respect to anyone who does that task for 2 bil.
Just wanted to let the OP know he is getting an awesome deal if someone makes a high quality 3d model including textures and render for him for this price.

"I find the 2 bil isk offer very low for such a task.
20 bil would be more realistic of you want a top notch model."
Would say it seriously depends on definition of "top notch" and one's regular earnings (which can wildly vary depending where you live)
e.g. if i recall right 2 bil isk translates into ~200+ USD worth of real money. This is quite matching the prices of mid-high range single models in places like turbosquid. A full-time professional with established job and portfolio can of course earn much more than that for their work, but then i don't think this offer is aimed at this kind of people.

I hate to ask this... But the Evol moviemakers had to ask permission from CCP.
The joint forces of EVE's creative community, could be artistic competition for CCP. Paying them 2bill, could be filed as 'corp spying'. Like the rescent Coca Cola case.
I've seen some Goons Modding their EVE client, seen a game with similar graphics like EVE been brought out and even seen how people make CGI movies without any permission from CCP. It may be flattering for a Dev, I can well imagine the stress it brings with it...
Couldn't resist but to ask this...
And didn't want to hijack this thread either.
I will not edit this post.

It will not be used in a CGI movie, I don't want to quite say what it's for just yet because it's a surprise , but of course it's EVE related and I am not going to make any real world profit on it in anyway. I am not going to use it in a "modified" client or use it in the EVE client in anyway (whats the point if I'm the only one that sees it like that anyway).
What it will be used in is another graphic, where the original Opux model is pixelating and doesnt look so great. Might as well go full blown and get a re-made model/skin that looks badass.

So it's a single image (where 48 hour render times from too much detail are acceptable), to be done by us? Or does it need to be compatible with your software? I ask because different programs/3rd party renderers have their own shaders/plugins/etc. For example, I would texture it for Vray and 3dsmax 8, but if you tried to render with Mental Ray and Maya, you'd need to redo all of the texture work. The custom map/material types for the 3rd-party renderer wouldn't convert correctly.
So before I spend any time on this, I want to make sure I'm not going to run into format problems.

There is no software I am using, you just have to make the model, skin it, and send a few renders of it at various angles (preferable one of the angles should be similar to this. I want whatever source files are used in case I need something done to it in the future.

Ok, got it, if there's no software issues, I can probably do something within your month or two deadline.

He said in his post it's the current model.
Also, possibly a dumb question but how do you go about extracting the eve models from the .stuff files for importing into 3ds Max? I don't have the patience to model an Opux from scratch but if you can get the original model it's just a matter of pimping it up a bit.

Yeah but I'd need a copy of the Opux model anywho. It'd help a lot to have a 3d reference to work off instead of a few screenshots.
Also, what's so hard about working off the original model?

You mean converting the model into an editable poly right? I just did a quick test and it appeared to work. I messed with a few polys and gave the Opux dumbo ears. Textures get screwed up obviously but apart from that... what am I missing?

You can extract the model out with a program someone made... do a search on stuff exporter on the EVE forums.

I'll be giving it a shot as well, going to remake the model from scratch and try and texture it (we'll see how that turns out. I assume you don't mind if the texture is different in parts? ("course it must look like the original Opux") My modeling skills aren't nearly up to robo's though :)

Have you been living under a rock? ;)
Just a start:
http://janvanderweg.com/pics/EVE/render1.jpg
To those using the eve model+texture:
You should chop up the model in 3 parts because the alpha map is used for self illumination, alpha, and reflection depending on the part of the model.

Hi, heres my effort, *** WIP ***
I do appologise to CCP for editing their model, but I just had to to have a little play around.
I havent touched the model too much, just exagerated & highlighted the texture shaded areas into physical polys.

The Texture need re-aligning & I've only got a simple light in atm, so nothing show stopping for the mo..

Sounds fun. With a few months to tinker I'm in. I do this for a living as well.
BTW for any out there looking for a cheap way to get started modeling check out Wings 3d- its a free program based around an older out of production program named Nendo. Its kind of like modeling in digital clay. Personally I like to model in Nendo and render in a higher end package (mostly lightwave)... As far as I can tell you can't get ahold of Nendo anywhere now so wings3d is your option for a very good cheap modeler.
Have fun!

Making a model and texturing it for 2billion.. sounds decent

IMO for printing purpose, its more important a good texture then a good model. In the detail printing you have 80% of texturing and 20% of edges (not saying that modeling isn't important, just saying that you will notice much faster a bad texture then you will a bad model).

Looking forwards to seeing the results. Don't have the time to do it myself, but a bit of advice... Its a damn sight easier to work from scratch than from a current model. Take captures of side, front and top and use them as temp. backgrounds to create a blueprint to work from. Working from scratch allows you to create the texture mapping etc without having to constantly tweak the old model map. Plus a new model has a less dampening affect on your imagination.
But thumbsup folks. Keep the work going

That is the program- but good luck buying it from there. check the dates on the site- 1999.... You can try to purchase it if you want, but every time I have sent someone there to buy a copy it doesn't work out. I had one friend even send a money order that was returned. lol. Anywho Wings 3d works the same way and is free.

Damnit,how did I miss this?
Will definately see what I can do on this one as it's right up my street in terms of specialisations...
but it will need a while to do, because:
1: my personal life that last few weeks has been so twisted that soap operas would dismiss it as implausible for a plot (when husbands discover you're ****ing their wife, is should;nt help fix their marriage, and the response really shouldn't be "thankyou".... damnit. it's great, but it's weirding me out...)
2: cos I've got a job app with rockstar north that really needs me to clean up my folio this week. because while making an Opux yacht is fun, it 'aint paying the rent  .
3: because you're going to be looking at something in the region of what, a 100K-250K poly master in the grey alone, with god alone knows how many texturemaps to give it justice, and that sort of texture work will take time... particularly given the Opux is the only model which requires internal detailing for much of the structure.
4: I'll need to know that, assuming that it is produced, I can then ask for permission off ccp that I can use a model of that degree of time and detail as a folio piece, ideally...

Any word on a deadline Voogru? And can we have some idea of what this is going to be used for? Renders for print will require larger texture maps than a render for screen or animation. The model might only be a few meg but the image maps will likely be quite large files. It's worth bearing in mind for when you want the winner to hand it all over.
How are all you other entrants getting on btw? Am I falling behind all you 3d modelling pros?

Sorry bout the image quality, Photobucket has started recompressing uploaded files and I'm too busy to go lookin for an alternative atm.
There's no texture yet, still working on the model. Think we're gonna be cutting it very fine on the deadline

Well i worked for game graphics(models textures etc) on the xbox(among others) for, well, 4.5years.
Reason i'm not doing this? The endless "But could you tune that, fix that, tweak that...oh it's not QUITE what i looked for" attitude that "civilians" have 
2 billion isk, meh, would ruin my game.

It's a little late for me to use now & implement (artist that was going to do the final image had a nasty hard drive crash and is having difficulty), but being as you were the only one to complete something within the timeframe, I will give you 500M.
I like the product but unfortantly can't really use it.

Um, I'm a little confused, the title of the thread is 2bill isk competition, did I win?
I met the terms of the competition that you layed out and now you make it sound like you had already commissioned someone else. I mean if I'm beaten by a better artist fair enough, no complaints but don't waste my time with 'competitions' when you have already picked the winner.

In case it's not already blatantly obvious, this is for an ad for EON, and the deadline was March 5th, meaning I had to have a completed ad by then.
That on top of the artists hard drives crashing kinda puts me at a loss, but I recognize that you put effort into it and I don't want to leave you empty handed with nothing. I'm not requesting the source files either.
I already had the ad completed, but the artist that made it had their hard drive crash (meaning the source file/PSD is no more, and the ad would have to be re-created from scratch), luckily I had the completed file in the proper format (PDF), but there isnt enough time to re-make the ad with the new yacht in time for the deadline.
