CTF flags.

Okay, I've reupped most of my images at imageshack.us, for I don't trust freeimagehosting.net anymore Look at my old posts, all the stuff is online again.
I want a voting already!
Is it actually possible to do multiple votes in one thread? Like flag carrier shield/weakened laser/melee? Flag: morphed/Harry/sev etc.?

This will (probably) be my last concept I post in this thread.

It sums up the concepts and ideas from this thread from my point of view. It also is more "realistic", meaning this could actually be turned into a usable model (my previous blue compound bow concept has to much curves and complicated forms for that).

I would like a semi-transparent plastic foil or a hologram being used instead of the cloth, but that is not really important for now.

I also thought about a way it is put on (in) the ground. This was not really investigated yet. At the lower part of the shaft I put 4 lasers, enabling it to stand without a "base", activated if put on the ground, and deactivated when carried.

yeah. I like this one the best...

Not sure about the lasers at the bottom though, might have to go a little further with that thought.

I like your other one better, mostly because of the curves. This one, although good too, is too simple, symmetric and boring, so to say. I also loved the handles that hold the flag a lot better in the blue version. But I like the stand you made in this one.
The laser idea is good, but if people don't like that you could just create a stand/base that are at the base all the time.

I do like the way you stabilize the cloth portion so it doesn't have to animate in the wind. Yet, it still looks like cloth because it looks like it is being stretched. No matter what happens with the base/staff portion, I think the flag portion should use that style.

I agree. I also like that it's stretched that way as you wouldn't need to animate it and could choose if the flag should have rips and being torn a bit or clean.

That last concept drawing looks a little excessive if you know what I mean.

I've made my mind, imho this is the best concept yet:

Due to some problem to my PC I can't finish the models I made some months ago (objects and player models).
I've seen the latest very good works and, if needed, here is other material ready made.
If someone would like to continue or modify my work I can send the .blend files.
I posted the images of both flags and characters (still undressed and unarmoured) on:

For player models you can find in this forum a dedicated topic titled "[Characters]Materials
for player models sharing" where I published mines. Feel free to upload yours.
