Ideas for Next Texturing Competition

[SuPa-]

How 'bout we brainstorm some ideas for the next texturing competition? A thread for this hadn't been made yet so I figure I'd make one myself. Not sure if I put this in the right forum. They seem to be mixed up in both this and the contest archive... thing.

 

[frostwhisper]

This is the right place. They move it to the archive when the compo begins.
Anyway, skinning units into machines?

 

[diosilva16]

what about turning a peasant model into a warrior? reskin a human peasant, an ork peon and a high elf peasant, you could chose one of them, make them look like something that could kill soomething. They look so dumb and weak that it would probably be a fun chalenge to make something "mighty" from them...

 

[frankie11]

With Halloween coming... Skinning a halloweenish thing.

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

I am with frankie11 on that one, having something Halloween themed might be fun?

 

[HeretoDLstuff]

Yeah, Halloween ftw! You could make a mighty peon thats halloween like too.

 

[Revolve]

Maybe some kind of turning >some kind of unit< into an Undead or Demon? Or a hybrid/fusion?

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Hallowen!Yes!I am in if something like this happens.Pumpkins for the wiN!

 

[SuPa-]

Halloween theme would be sweetness

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

So,we have decided?

 

[HeretoDLstuff]

We arnt really the people TO dicide, the people hosting it are.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

That's right.Come on someone host this competition!

 

[diosilva16]

aye, i wanna show off my new skilz

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

I suggest creating a vampire.

 

[Elenai]

Hmmmz...A halloween theme....sounds sexy.

Perhaps a Vampiric elf.....or some other fearful thing. Hmmmz.....Or what about a new kind of creature.

 

[HeretoDLstuff]

Or a pumpkin man! ( Im makeing a pumkin man for thehelper.net skinning contest)

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

You have to start your skin after the contest begins.It won't count.

Unless you werent talking to me, I said its not for THIS site. Its for THE HELPER.net.

 

[Elenai]

Hmmmmz......AH HA!!!! I have a secret idea....One of my favorite fearful specters.

EDIT: Curses! I just realized that I would have to make a model for it.....And I really wanted to make The Hessian Mercenary, The Bane Of Icabod, the HEADLESS HORSEMAN OF SLEEPY HOLLOW!!!!.

 

[frostwhisper]

Sleepy Hollow F T W. Anyway, you can alpha the head of a deathknight away. ^^

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Can you post a pic of that Sleepy Hollow?

 

[HeretoDLstuff]

Lol.....We have a childrens book about the headless knight from sleepy hollow.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

I don't quite remember it.So,a picture would be nice.

 

[HeretoDLstuff]

I don't quite remember it.So,a picture would be nice.

[Elenai]

But I would have to model a different horse...add a pumpkin to his hand....give him a cools sword...ect.

 

[diosilva16]

well, we're all getting exited with this halloween thing, but i've got a different idea, ever 'eard of self portraits? hehe, what about doing a reskin, could be completelly frehanded, or with a few cnps from a picture of you, trying to protray yourself? any model in the mpq would be valid

 

[HappyTauren]

Halloween FTW!

I'd go4it

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Yeah,Halloween!But i still think a pumpkin based on a villager is a great idea.

YEAH!!!1000 POSTS!!

CnPs of images work terrible....Ugh (At least when there pictures of people...

@Uchi: Congrats, same with me!

 

[Elenai]

Perhaps this should be a modeling compo as well?

 

[frostwhisper]

Yes, it should. Then the whole contest arena will have an All Hallows Eve feel to it.

 

[diosilva16]

nope, thats a bad cnp, bad is not the only way to cnp

anyway, start the contest already!

 

[Wolverabid]

A thread for this hadn't been made yet ...

Exactly.

No staff member has accepted the responsibility to oversee the next texturing competition. Until such time as that eventuality occurs, any discussion in this thread is pure speculation.

 

[HeretoDLstuff]

When ive tryed to CnP faces from images onto skins, the wrap allways seems to maul it.

Any other kind of CnP works fine.

 

[SuPa-]

CnP is not skinning. End of that particular discussion. Wolver, it is speculation But it lets people discuss and give the staff who host the competitions ideas, imo

 

[THE_END]

Ok so a Halloween/Hallow's Eve skinning contest is called for?

 

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

Halloween theme would be great.

 

[THE_END]

I'll start it up sometime tomorrow
