__________________________
It almost summertime and the weather is high, dust of your BBQ's and fry those porkchops! Everyone likes a good old fashioned barbecue! Design your own barbecue or grill, that will completely change the world of barbecues, or design a retro barbeque with some charbroiled hamburgers, it really doesn't matter. As long as it is somehow a device to prepare a great steak. Have fun!

3D Challenge tag: "3D Challenge 125"

__________________________
The winner of previous 3D Challenge #124 - Dream Worlds is:


Bob Mayonnaise with his dream Polychromie des Rêves (a dream within a dream)! It has something of an air to it of the movie 'Inception' (maybe a source of inspiration, Bob?), but still it is absolutely the ultimate model of strangeness. And thank god for components, because drawing all of those 432,000 edges by hand would take a century! Congrats!

  3. I think we may be confusing BBQ with grilling. Barbeque is a slow cooking at low heat technique whereas grilling is fast cooking at high heat. You grill hamburgers and steak, never barbeque. If I were to, by definition, barbeque hamburgers or steak, I would be serving charcoal figuratively. Inversely if I were to grill meats intended for barbeque, such as ribs and beef brisket, I would might as well be serving shoe leather. So, can the challenge be extended to include both barbeques and outdoor grills?

  4. @Jedi for most of people i think BBQ and grills are the same *out door cooking device* it just depend of the temperature and you can do what ever you want on it (for me its all the same)

  5. I did something quick, because presumably I don't see any spare time in my calendar to make one better. The participation counts. :)

  6. O_o, my suggestion is grinder. It could be a hand or electric. As kind: meat, coffee, spice, walnut, tomato or any kind you find in kitchen.

  7. Hi all,

    Thank you for the information Jedi Charles! I'll add Grill to the Challenge subject. Great idea by the way!

    I'm currently making a list of all suggestions, so I can have a look at previous ones too. Next subject won't be suggested by GoldenSim, don't be afraid!

    Have fun!

  13. 1) "Luxury BBQ (Classic car inspired)"-GoldenSim
    Beautiful curves, amazing detail, clever accents

    2) "Modern Propane Grill" -JediCharles
    I could see that scene actually being built on a skyscraper in Dubai or some posh neighborhood in NY

    3) "BBQ Stealth" -HenkieTenk
    Love the concept, great shapes and texturing!


    My vote for the next 3D challenge is anything organic like plants, trees, animals..etc or (on the other extreme) space..like a space-mine or a colony on Mars.

  14. Well, three points for "Luxury BBQ (Classic car inspired)" by GoldenSim ; pour rester fidèle à mon commentaire! Because I'm rating on the skills and modelling and this model is fefinitely a very good one.. I'm still not a huge fan of by-products around cars :)

    two points for "Scenic BBQ" by falconview for the good modelling & details (+textues).

    And finally a point for "BBQ Stealth by HenkieTenk" of HenkieTenk for originality and shape!

    I had been hesitating with DALEXD's but I eventually found it was a bit too classical and I was afraid by the whole metal & modern look of the "Modern Propane Grill" then perhaps I wan sound a bit buttoned-down here (but I'm usually not)

    ReplyDelete
  15. the choice was a bit hard but there are my votes:

    1st -Modern Propane Grill by JediCharles
    >Excellent realisation and animation

    2nd -Scenic BBQ by falconview
    >Very well modeled and realistic

    3rd -BBQ setup by DALEXD
    >Very good i wish i add this one at home

    again everyone did a excellent job and i almost wish i did not have to classify those nice models
    looking forward for a new and unexpected challenge :)

    Suggestion: Power Wheelchair. Make it practical and look cool/futuristic/attractive. I am a power wheelchair user and I would like to see what others can come up with.

  19. Love that idea Jedi :) Milo give us a challenge in the meantime :P before,we haved a new challenge while we were voting no?

    ReplyDelete
  20. First: Fusion Master Grill 3000
    Second: Luxury BBQ (Classic Car)
    Third: BBQ Setup

    All the models were great ideas and fun to look at, but these three were what I most would like in my own backyard. Good job, all!

  21. Ok so It was really hard this time. All of us have great use of details and skills to show off this time around. and since it wouldn't be ethical to vote for myself lol I had to go with these

    1st) Modern Propane Grill by Jedi Charles

    2nd) Golden Sim's "Luxury BBQ"

    3rd) Scenic BBQ by falconview

    Great job everyone :-)

    ReplyDelete
  22. I still have got the same idea : memorial. Each one would be free to choose something that touches him personally then decide how he wants to pay tribute to this. Perhaps WWII or more lately something for Fukushima...

    ReplyDelete
  23. Nice BBQ's all of you!

    My voting:
    3 for Modern Propane Grill by JediCharles
    2 for Scenic BBQ by falconview (with the black sausages)
    1 for Precious Barbecue by moboille

  24. Next subject:

    - doghouse/kennel
    - pc monitor
    - hoist/crane
    - garden (one size like 10m x 20m)
    - beaver dam

    ReplyDelete
  25. Dam was challenge 057 and Crane was 073 :)
    I recall 'cause I did both.

    ReplyDelete
  26. some sort of appliance would be fun

    ReplyDelete
  27. i like that falcon. That could end up being just as competitive as this grill. Maybe something like a blender, and if u use physics you get bonus bragging right lol ;-)

    ReplyDelete
  28. Physics Plugins for sketchup like sketchy physics allow you to "play" around with your model using "real world" forces so for instance u can make a sphere roll down terrain and bounce off things. or model a crane and use a xbox 360 control to make it move inside Sketchup. the skies the limit. And the true reason for my post if anyone is interested I had sometime to do a couple renders of my grill in differnt light settings and threw them up in my web album if you wanna take a peek :-) hugs
