Texturing Contest #16 - Theme DIscussion

[-Berz-]

Sounds interesting

 

[Pyritie]

You guys think 1 month is enough?

 

[-Berz-]

It should be, I think.

Anyway I'm not sure I'll join it.

Last time I finished my Mad Scientist just before the futuristic-themed skinning contest started, now I just made a puppet monster just before the toy-themed contest. :/

Oh well... Do the toys have to be christmas-themed, or can they just be any kind of toy?

 

[X-OMG-X]

Oh well... Do the toys have to be christmas-themed, or can they just be any kind of toy?

They have to be christmas related.

 

[Stanakin]

So what are christmas-related toys? I can't think of any... Don't you think that's a bit too restricted? I believe the original idea in the submission thread was just general toys, along with christmas stuff.

Nutcracker Toy, Santa, Reindeer.... Many moar is available.

 

[Dentothor]

No the idea was any kind of toy. or plaything. or a christmas character.

i think i might do Buzz Lightyear

 

[THE_END]

One month is always enough time..hrm to join or not 2...

 

[zadelim]

Count me in this Contest!
I will show some skill here!

 

[communist_orc]

Hum... Christmas spirit is gone. Holliday theme might work for me... not sure if ill join.

 

[Dionesiist]

Does Krampus count?

 

[Dentothor]

well he relates to christmas so i guess so.
plus i wont be competing. i will help judge. (if anyone else wants to, let me know)
i might do one just for fun tho.

 

[communist_orc]

might just go with rudolph...

 

[67chrome]

Cool. I'll help judge if I don't make anything for this contest

 

[NiRVaNa_87]

I might join this one. I already have a few ideas for the contest

 

[GnoobSauce]

might join if i have time

 

[Just_Spectating]

theme is sort of blah

i guess i could try it though.

 

[GnoobSauce]

WiP of the Ancient of Winterveil.
( will have more christmas stuff... such as red cloak etc... xD)

 

[Dentothor]

GnoobSauce. you do realize it has to be a christmas character/toy or a childrens toy. not a random thing with christmas clothes. that will not count.

 

[GnoobSauce]

yeah its not gonna be a random thing with christmas clothes. does it have to be a christmas CHARACTER or can it be a christmas themed type of thing? i'm going to add holly berries to his beard and his horns will be candy canes

 

[Dentothor]

Welcome and Seasons Greetings to the Texturing Contest #16! Your Goal in this Contest is to Choose any Warcraft 3 Model and transform it into a Toy or Christmas Character! Remember. Be creative! Good Luck!

Does that answer your question?

 

[FrIkY]

And how can you judge creativity if it must be an already existing Christmas character? Yeah, makes sense. Also, I wonder if anyone's is going to make Jesus.

 

[GnoobSauce]

Yes, but that's very vague... technically if i gave him a christmas cloak or anything he'd be a christmas character.... try "Traditional Christmas Character" if you're trying to specify that. >.>
guess im out of the competition then. not gonna texture something else especially if the rules aren't very clear :/

edit: ^agree with friky

 

[Deolrin]

It's very damn clear. You can make a TOY related to Christmas or a CHARACTER related to Christmas.

You can make Santa, you can make Rudolph, you can make a Nutcracker Toy, you can make a toy train, I suppose even that would count. You CAN'T make a random tree dressed in red and white clothes, you CAN'T make a footman with Christmas related armor, you CAN'T make an Archmage with a candy cane.

 

[Crazed_seal2]

Ima join this!

 

[darkdeathknight]

I'll try and make something

 

[Dionesiist]

Meet Krampus

He made a habit of stealing a certain someone's hairstyle.

 

[Deolrin]

What's up with his eyes?

 

[Dionesiist]

"

"
EDIT:

and yes, that is drool.

 

[darkdeathknight]

I can't think of a stupid Christmas character I knew I should have listened in RE class.
I wonder if people are even going to use a toy/Chirstmas char in their map

EDIT- I think I should do one of the three wise men with the acolyte. I don't know how the look like though so I better do some research!

 

[X-OMG-X]

Bingo.

Haha

 

[tee.dubs]

I would love to judge, though i'm not sure if i'm qualified to as i have never submitted a skin to the hive before. Still, it'd be nice and i personally think i have a good and realistic eye for critique...

 

[Stanakin]

First WIP pic:

 

[Dionesiist]

Give him a fat reindeer body.

 

[Dentothor]

omg stanikin that is hialrious. xD
dio. omg freaking epic
nice work so far you guys

 

[Stanakin]

Give him a fat reindeer body.

Exactly what I was planning.

 

[D a w n]

someone should make "Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come" :>

 

[Dionesiist]

Hurr~

 

[Pyritie]

lol @ tattoo

 

[Dentothor]

I <3 Mom

 

[Dionesiist]

And it's symmetrical X'P

 

[GnoobSauce]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yule_log
I present the Yule Log Treant!

cape is still a wip.

 

[Dentothor]

i still dont belive it is at all that christmasy. its simply just a tree with red clothing and canycane horns. once again. it must be a CHARACTER OR TOY not something with christmas clothes.

 

[GnoobSauce]

its the second day of the contest and its a wip. im not done >.>
im going to add more details etc... later on

 

[Dentothor]

im not judging the skin atm. im judging the IDEA. and right now, the IDEA does not match the theme

 

[GnoobSauce]

well then i guess i'll have to withdraw from the contest since apparently you get to decide which elements of christmas are "christmasy" enough
if i had done a christmas tree it would have been fine, correct?
so why not a yule log?

 

[Just_Spectating]

just put red and green on whatever skin you are going to make

 

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

You could always dress him up as a christmas tree.
