SPEED MODELING CHALLENGE No. 26 (Useless Invention)

Hi everyone and Welcome to 3dm3 Speed Modelling Competition

New Speed Modelling Challenge is here!

Subject: Useless Invention

Description: Well, that's enough as to old stuff. And what about the future? Who make our future different?...of course INVENTORS! So let's try ourselves as genious inventors. But as we all are artists our inventions would hardly be usefull ;). So opposite task to create a useless invention seems to be much more interesting and challenging.

Modeling Time: 4 hours
Start: Tuesday, 3rd March at 12:00 am GMT
End: Monday, 9th April at 12:00 am GMT


PLEASE READ GENERAL RULES

(Sorry for starting later than promissed. It's caused by some technical reasons which would never appear in future)

Post your entries in this thread!

Here are some quick rules if you don't want to read much and are ready to model

IMPORTANT CHANGE IN RULES, click here

LOOK PREVIOUS CHALLENGES, click here


Stain your brain. Be an inventing artist! :)

Good luck and have fun!

Skate or DIE!!!

Here it is folks!!!!

Soon to be in Store all over the world. It's the brand new street craze that increases your 'Mad Skillz' to the next level.

Thats right!!! Its The FAKEY VISION (tm) from Stinger88 Skate Gear (tm), allows the user to see behind them as they perform some Narley trickz on the street or skate park. The FAKEY VISION (tm) is a valuable asset to any skaters performing trickz on ramps, it allows the user to see the ramps behind them (360 degrees) as they desend back down to land and also its great for doing reverse grinds or backflips. The unit is versatile and sturdy, withstanding the hard knocks from any wipeout. But wipeout's will be a thing of the past with The FAKEY VISION (tm). Comes in a variety of colours and can be fitted to most standard skate helmets. (Also fits most for bicycle,ice hockey and american football helmets).

So what does this amazing new innovation cost I hear you ask...

FAKEY VISION (tm) can be yours from ONLY!!! £149.99 (inc. VAT).

Call now on 0800 RIP OFF!!!

(subject to availability. FAKEY VISION (tm) and Stinger88 Skate Gear(tm) reserve the right to keep your payment even if you recieve nothing in the post)

Anyway......heres my entry to this challenge, Hope you like it.....

Hey, Stringer88! Your as fast as nobody.

And by the way your invention is not so useless as it seems to be. Maybe it's better to delete the post and think about a patent :)

If it's not too late, here's my post.... I had some problems with my connection to the internet ...

since i hadn't done much thinking about this theme it's not some idea, but still here it is....

These are the shoes that u can actually stand on without any movement !!!
Aren't they great?! You can get a version with batteries, to massage your feet, so you can enjoy more your standing... :)

(I tried the version without batteries, and it's great!!! Actually it's better than the another one, because it's less useful )

modeling: ~3h
materials: ~30mins (I had a problem with the main mat for the shoe,adn still it's not what I wanted)
scene: ~15mins
rendering: 1h&26mins
