With thanks to Hammerknight for the suggestion, your Character Design Challenge this week is to create an awesome face. That's right, all entries this time around must be a portrait only of someone who looks interesting, cool, and/or awesome. When I say portrait view, I mean a close-up of the character's head, roughly from the shoulders up to just above the top of the head.
I'm particularly interested in cool-looking faces, though that's not a strict requirement. In other words, if you're doing an image of a knight, it's probably a good idea to put his or her visor in the up position, but you won't be disqualified if it's down instead.
For me, I'm going to be most impressed by faces that look distinctive, as if it could be a picture of an actual human being versus a sort of generic comic book person.
That's not to say you have to make a human face, of course. I'm sure we'll see our fair share of aliens, robots, and "other", all of which I look forward to very much as well!
In addition to the above constraints, the usual rules apply as well:
- Use only a HeroMachine applet (no PhotoShopping except for basic cropping) to create a PNG or JPG of your entry, named as [your name]-[character name].[file extension]. So DiCicatriz, for instance, would save his "Bayou Belle" character image as DiCicatriz-BayouBelle.png.
- Post the image to a publicly accessible website (ImageShack, PhotoBucket, the UGO Forums, etc.).
- Enter the name of your entry and a link directly to the image in a comment to this post. The image cannot have been used in any previous HeroMachine character design contest.
- The link to your image should go directly to the image (like this) and not to a hosting jump page (like this). If you see "preview" or "rotate" somewhere in the link you're probably doing it wrong.
- I'll choose a winner next Monday, who will receive his or her choice of any item or a portrait to be included in the final HeroMachine 3 program, or a "Sketch of the Week" style black and white illustration (you pick the subject and I draw it up however I like).
No limit on entries this week, so knock yourselves out. Good luck everyone!

This feels like cheating; I used the “3/4s face guide” to make this when the original could use some improvement: http://i295.photobucket.com/albums/mm156/Tuldabar/Heros/Agentface2.png.
But now I can’t decide which one looks better; this one or the original. ‘Grrrrrrrrrrr…’
This is a really cool idea!
First entry is a take on my username. Cicatriz, reformed gang member operating as a covert government agent.

DiCicatriz (26): I love the cataract on the injured eye. Very nice touch. And I really, really love the goofy puppy expression juxtaposed with the scar and prison tattoos and general hoodlum look.
@DiCicatriz: Nice image. Mind if I ask where you’re from? I ask because I’ve been meaning to say to you that “Cicatriz” is scar in portuguese.
Cicatriz is scar in Spanish too š
I don’t mind at all. I was born in Mexico City, my parents are both Mexican however my mother has a lot of European ancestry which accounts for my lighter skin and colored eyes. Most people assume I’m American or Spanish on first glance.

After a terrible scandal full of sex and murder, Dom Volos was buried alive beneath his own mansion, which was looted and burned to the ground. He woke up a vampire in the middle of the Great Depression, and found himself empathizing with the poor for the first time.

Sadly I have (what I consider) a great idea, I just don’t have nearly the time to pull it off. Assuming it is allowed, maybe somebody else could attempt it. I was going to do Mount Geekmore or Mount Nintendmore… attempting to put famous characters from those categories on a mountain face ah la Mount Rushmore. Would be funny to see imo.

@ Kaylin88100 (81): What? Only 15 entries in two days? You’re slacking! š
@dblade (84): 16 now. That’s the most I’ve ever entered to a contest (this is my 5th). š 2nd place goes to the Two Great Tastes contest last month, which I entered 11 times and got 1 Finalist. So in theory I should get at least 1 this time. In theory. š
Kaylin88100, you always do good work (and I haven’t actually looked at any of the ones for this contest yet), so don’t take this personally — it’s definitely meant as a general statement, not a specific one to you, at all.
But, in general quantity != quality. Entering multiple times does not necessarily increase your chances of a win. Sometimes a person with only one submission comes away with the win because they NAILED it on that one.
@Jeff (86): I know what you mean, but I have a lot of good ideas that I want to try (at least I think they’re good) so I try them all. It doesn’t mean I put less effort into each idea, which I think some people might if they were doing lots. Plus, I enjoy making them so much that I don’t really mind about the winning part. To me the only thing about winning is that I would get to ask for an item š

@ jojo n friends (128): When you are on the album page with your image just right click it and “View Image”. This will take you to a page with just the image. Copy the current web address and use that as the link.
For example:
http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m109/ALOYSIUS09/heromachine/TheNewBreed1.jpg
Or more simply you can right click the image in the album and “Copy Image Location” to get the web address.

Zaheelee (126): Welcome back. Was wondering where you got to.
Also strange coincidence that you, an avowed Batman fan, return during what appears to be Jeff’s “anti-Batman” week.
@Myro (143): Yeah, I noticed that. BUT, the Dark Knight Rises trailer is finally out, so it’s all good š
Probably my last one for this one
ĀØ2 sides of the same storyĀØ
http://i1190.photobucket.com/albums/z456/asder0072/2stories.jpg
Sorry if this is kind of random, but I think that it is awesome that everyone here has a different style to their characters. For example, I just took a look at one of Asder’s faces (145), and it reminded me of mine (126). However, though they are similar in concept, they are completely different in exicution, which I think is really awesome. I love how Heromachine allows you to make a character exactly how you want to make it. So, this is really just a big thank you to Jeff, and a shoutout to all of you for making each character awesome in every way possible š
Oh, and Asder, I love your character! The shading makes it look really cool š
Anti-Batman?! I protest! Anti-Azrael, definitely. And granted, the poll does ask about who could take out Batman, but let’s be honest — none of them would actually succeed š
I agree with Myro, though, that it’s nice to see you back, Zaheelee.
Yeah, I hate the Azrael-Batman, too. He tried to kill Tim Drake/ Robin! Tim is my favorite character in the history of forever, so Jean Paul Valley is very close to the top of my “lame superhero’s” list. Along with Superman. Yes, I went there.

Going for something a little less… supernatural. Baseball!

Known only as “The Colonel”. this mystery man is thought to have once been The Man in Red, the world’s first costumed man of mystery, though he doesn’t look old enough to be been active for over 70 years. The Colonel heads the sprawling superhero clan known as “The Family”. Seldom active in the field, he has none the less displayed a devastating mastery of Tai Chi, and extraordinary strength.
