    Awesome. I’ll get started on that straight away.
    Shame that you didn’t get to do anything for the Solarian competition, I’d’ve like to see what you would come up with.

    Anyone else? You’ve still got half a day.

    My face is on HM3 in the Winners tab. It’s this one…

    And I think Blue Blazer is actually a pretty good name for a fire-based character…

    Cool. I’m not actually doing hero names for these guys, I’m thinking along the lines of Heroes, normal people with powers. I’ve just finished yours and Vampyrists’ off and I’ll post them up when I’ve got all of them done.
    Is anyone else going to follow Blue Blazers lead and volunteer? I’ll give you another 24 hours to volunteer, then I’m just going to go ahead and finish off the designs I’ve already got.

    I suggested this to Jeff just before he decided to call it a day (I don’t think it was the cause), but what about doing a Create a Comic Book cover contest. I’ve done a few and I’ve seen a few others knocking about so it is doable.

    Ok. I’ve run out of ideas for what characters to give you guys to redesign now, so I’m not going to run this thread as a redesign contest until I figure out what the next contest should be. But instead of neglecting it, I thought I’d try something different.
    Now that I’ve finished doing redesigns of my more recent characters, I thought I should go back to some of my very earliest creations, The Elements, a team of normal people who are given ten legendary orbs each containing a great elemental spirit. Thing is though, I want to shake this up a bit, so what I’m going to do is ask you guys to serve as my inspiration. What I want is for you guys to get involved, become part of the team. So, if you want me to do a portrait of you as a member of my new elements team, or if you want to create a character specifically to be a part of it, then post a head-shot and text file below or PM me with them (head-shots only please, I’ll figure out the rest later) with a name for the character, which elemental orb they would have and a short description of their personality (I’ll also flesh that out later). I’ll be operating on first come first served. I’ll update the list below when an element becomes unavailable.

    The elements are: Fire (TAKEN), Earth (TAKEN), Water, Electricity (TAKEN), Air (TAKEN), Ice, Metal, Light, Darkness (TAKEN), Time (TAKEN)

    Vampyrist has already got involved, via my deviantart page, so I hope some other people will follow his example. I’ll post them up on my thread when I’ve got at least two more people interested and their designs done. Also, I will be reserving at least three spaces for female members, incase any of the girls don’t get involved here, I don’t really want to have an all male team.

    Hope to hear from you guys.

    Ok people, contest closed.

    I’m glad I had this one open for 2 weeks, there were some very good entries in both weeks. Before we get to the over all winners, lets have a look at those runners up, who will be the Legendary Solarians in issue 3.

    Red: Stax (headlessgeneral)- There were more entries for this colour than any of the others, but this one was one of two that made me think ‘that’s actually better than my own design’, so many kudos to you for that one.

    Orange: ? (Luc)- I’m calling this guy Orguilo (latin for Pride) as you didn’t name any of yours. I liked the look of this one very much, the idea of using the space man helmet gave him a look of anonymity that gave the impression when combined with his pose that he is too good for everyone else to even look at. It also helped that he’s tying himself to the Earth’s most iconic ever moment.

    Yellow: K’Link D’Lack (Livewyre1014)- Out of all of the runners up, this entry encapsulated what I had in mind when I put this contest up. Simple costume, the expression which shows perfectly which emotion he represents, the glow effect (did you merge the fingers underneath? Cause that’s extra neat if you did.) He came very close to being a winner here.

    Green: Kringlack (NHA247)- Energy Effect. That’s all that needs to be said for this one. And I like the fact you looked at the example design and said “Lets make the black the main colour of the costume, just so the green s more eye catching’ (Or at least that’s what you said in my head).

    Blue: Kraa (Trekkie)- There are many things that are neat about this one. The alien-ness of the character, he seems to be all stretched out and I can’t see a mouth anywhere. I also love the simplicity of the costume, and the shading on it is excellent. I’m a big fan of simple but effective costumes, and this is a prime example.

    Purple: ? (Luc)- Yep, no name given for this one, but I’ve called him Amhef, cause the file sot of read that way. Great story behind this one. Having the actual character peaking out of the suit is awesome. I also like the fact that the suit has the Solaria costume instead of the character.

    Pink: Darouk (Vampyrist)- I liked the story behind both of Vampyrists ‘Masked’ entries, but I like this one more. It strikes me that he could go either way, he could be consumed by hatred of those he persecuted because of the love he has for those he doesn’t, so if I did investigate the stories of some of these legendary Solarians, I would definitely focus on this guy, he has a good story.

    Black: ? (Luc)- If I’m not mistaken, this was the only entry for black. Nice look for this one, though I’m not sure how useful a skirt would be in combat.

    Silver: Gerar- Kon (Vampyrist)- You do seem to like giving backstories involving religion don’t you. This one was alway getting into the ten, just for his face. Alien but there’s still that humanity that makes the backstory believable.

    White: Wraith (NHA247)- This was tough one to decide, I liked Luc’s version, but it was slightly too close to my original design for the white Solarian (pretty much the only difference was mine was male), so I have to give this one to Wraith. He looks awesomely spooky, and the glowing eyes just add another layer of awesome altogether.

    So well done to everyone there. But there can only be one winner. Except for my indecisiveness, which means there two winners.
    And they are:

    Blue BlazerVovu Vevu & NHA247RAM

    Blue Blazers was the design I was comparing everyones to, as his was the first entry. Two things that attracted me to this character from the start where the alien-ness of the design (the head especially) and the backstory that BB gave, definately helps to think up the motivation and personality of the character.

    All of NHA247’s entries ended up being finalists, but this was my favourite. As with Kringlack, the effects are amazing. The pose is really emotive, you can just see the rage. But what really sold this one to me, is the backstory (as with Blue Blazer), I know where to go with this character already.

    Thank you for all your entries and special thanks to the two winners.

    I won’t be running a redesign contest competition this week, but I will have something up on this thread later.

    Also, since quite a few people have done redesigns of JR19759’s Demon Girl, I decided to take a crack at it as well. Also used the sitting pose Harlequin posted here earlier.

    Awesome, but you’ve already given me a gift, so you didn’t need to do that.

    Awesome, those are some of the best tattoos I’ve seen done on HM. What part is the stomach tattoo, because I don’t recognise it?

    Much like Harlequin and Vampyrist, I’m a Lupus, so I’m in good company.

    Try putting the code in a spoiler, it shortens the post. Also click the code button (next to the spoiler) to make the text show up in a way that people can use it.

    Ok guys, as I probably won’t be able to give you the usual 24 hour call on Sunday as I’ll be busy over the weekend, consider this your last call. The contest closes on Monday so you still have two days left in which to enter. Go for it, lets see if you can beat the brilliant entries we’ve already got. Blue and Silver are still unaccounted for, so if you definitely want a nod you know what to do.
    If it ends up being the case that one colour is missing from the final group, I’ll use one of the entries that didn’t quite make it for their colour.
