Texturing contest idea
I had an idea about a skinning contest where instead of getting a theme and choosing a model to skin after it, we get a model and try to make whatever we want with that model.
For example, one of my favorites (and a really good one to work with), the Faceless One.
And then people could make a skin for any theme based off that model, like a Lava Spawn or a Mutant Warrior etc.
Thoughts?

I personally dislike the one model texturing contests. I think it is too limiting. I always liked it when people had a cool idea for the theme and did something crazy with a model they picked out. You wouldn't be able to do that to the same extent if it were a one model contest.
What I would really like to see for a contest is a twin skin contest. Where you skin two models to fit together. Like a hero and a summoned unit or something.

Like the Crypt Lord and the Scarab? Pretending that they use different textures, ofc. I like that idea. ^_^

Any theme involving the use of two skins is good enough for me. The idea is to make two skins so that someone could easily recognize that the two units go together.

Or like the skin Dio made, the vampire and vampire conversion unit, using the DH, and DH alternate skins.

I think I got the point, something like: Mountain Giant uses texture ''textures\MountainGiant.blp'' and so is Pandaren Earth model, (for his weapon) and then we make one skin to fit for two models... right? But if one of those models doesn't include the whole texture, just a part for something, (Pandaren Earth) then make 2 skins... ?

No, two skins. Two Models. One style.

the theme is basically, picking 2 models, and making them seem synergetic somehow.
so you could skin your mountain giant, and then take your pandaren earth, and make them both into the same type of theme where as the pandaren would be like his side kick or summon or something.

lol! Well, that could also be cool. But does it have to be units that have morphing animations (Druid of the Talon, Druid of the Claw, Illidan, Demonhunter) or it can be anything, you just need to match it right?
