2008 Artist Series Contest (3rd Theme): M3 vs GTR
Whether it is basketball shoes or sports cars, the aspiration to be the best lies in more than a badge. The BMW M3 and Skyline GTR are two of the hottest sports car launch of the year. As they go head to head in luxury and performance, take inspiration from either car and build a luxury/performance shoe worthy of their legacies.

the heel hasn't got any extra function. I try to do something unusual that look like the M3 tail. But it's all made of EVA for normal cushioning....

Garvin- Good start on the design, I can see the start of something here. I think before you worry too much about the Photoshop rendering you should finalise the concept a little more. I feel it’s better to work on pencil sketches more first so you can work out how all the aspects of the shoe will work and nail your proportions. Often working on a silhouette of the outline first and getting it spot on will take a while but it’s worth it. Also good to try and think about the details of the design. and once you have it all straight in your mind, or on paper, then the rendering should be the final thing you do.
Keep it up though! (hope the comments help, Don’t want to seem like a hater! Just trying to encourage.)

yeah, explore the form more. PS work is only half the task. define lines, shapes and elements of the shoe before throwing it into PS. a good sketch should convey what you were implying and PS only enhances it.

Johnny,

In my opinion you have improved quiet well, your shapes are getting better. But your drawing here looks kind of messy, should this be your final sketch? Make a cleaner sketch and you´re good to go. cheers c.

Barbu, if you go to my submissions and try to update your description, would it let you? Stephen, if you go to my submissions and go to this month's theme, is it there? if it is there, is the description complete? Once again, what you see in my submissions is what we see as well... there should never be a need for you ask if we've received anything.

Yes, there is no submit button on the first page. After you update your description, you click on preview, then you should see your change in the description. Then when you click on submit, it should update the description. Please try again.

Hi ~ Admin
I have question as a keep failing candidate,
if I am not making to the every finalist ,
is this because my work isn't good enough?
or is there some fact that I have not realize
but basic knowledge.
because I have been keep trying since start of this year and I even created new account, thought of It might be a problem on account, cause I saw people having trouble with it.
please give me a tip. I am so passionate about this competition. I put this even before school work.
P.S. is there any one who made Nike internship?

Hi Dragon Min,

first thing I wonder which is your real name, since we use our real names here, Dragon is really cool anyway.

Beside that, if you don't make it to the finals you can show your designs here on the forum and you will receive plenty of feedback from site Mods and other designers.

If your designs are already good it is possible that something went bad in the submit phase, only Admin knows if your stuff has been submitted correctly, and I think he will let you know soon.

Ciaooo
Pietro
