Lol thats true anita, but its not wrong to try to recreate really cool things from Sci Fi! i mean check out )v('s gun model from the Fifth Element. I'm using Independence Day as a ref for my movie also.

BTW what did you intend those things to be? I like them too, they are just a little abstract!

Hey anita.. basically the hell challenge is this months challenge (april).. you join it and then decide something with the theme of hell to model user added image. Once you do this you have until the end of the month, and you have to supply your progress images along the way on SM for people to see. The rules are that you cannot post a premade model, you have until midnight of the last day, you need to be within the "hell" theme. Also, you need to specify if you are joining as a noobie or normal. The rest of the rules are in the monthly challenge thread. I think this was your question user added image. If i misunderstood you can you rephrase? Thanks.
