Charrette #8 - Bridge Challenge

Time for another challenge, this one was sparked by the great bridge images neil posted in the following thread:

FEW GREAT BRIDGES

You may use these or any other bridges, real or fictional to create your own, or you may use either of the two bridge models 'rpadc2002' has graciously offered to the community for their use (images of the actual bridges, Golden Gate Bridge and Harbour Bridge/Sydney, attached below), don't forget to thank him for his generosity.



Rules and criteria:
1. The bridge can be real or imaginary using the supplied models or your own creation.
2. The challenge is to create the most visually interesting image focusing on a bridge, celebrating a wonder of engineering, the setting is up to the artist.
3. POV/camera angle - This is upto the artist to choose.
4. Artists are free to choose color schemes as per their choice.
5. Deadline for the challenge would be disscussed latter, but it should be within the 2 months.
6. There are no prizes lined up for this challenge, to date we have come up with something for the winner of the previous challenges, but the emphasis of this design excercise is to have fun and improve in your craft.

Admin Notes:

1.) All credit for the models provided should go to 'rpadc2002' when posting images using the models off site.

2.) The models remains the property of the original artist and credit to the original artist must be included with any rendered output posted outside the site. In addition the original artist and 3DAllusions for the purpose of the challenge are the only parties authorized to distribute said material without the consent of the original artist. If you do not agree to these terms do not download the afore mentioned material.

3) You are free to post the renders other sites and forums , we expect that you to put a link to this site/challenge thread. Thanks

I am uploading four different fornats. I would also request other artist to put up some more formats if we have not provided them, if possible. The models are as is, both models are in each ZIP file, we can not guarantee the integrety of the meshes, normals may be flipped, etc.....

We hope this new challenge will be another sucess and we are looking forward inseeing some exciting renders. So get started now...
