Pop Quiz: Guns

Posted on March 31, 2012 by | 33 Comments

Update: This was originally a "celebrity profile" quiz but after an hour I decided I hated that, so I changed it to guns.

Get ready for your pop quiz, kids! Your one-day quick-fire challenge is:

Make your own awesome gun in HM3!

You only get one entry -- that's right, just one! So make it your best. No backgrounds or elaborate scenes, just a cool looking gun of some sort.

Most of the other rules are the same as for a regular contest, but instead of a whole week I'll announce the winner either tonight or first thing in the morning.

  • All entries must be in JPG or PNG form (BMPs are too big), posted to a publicly accessible website (like ImageShack, PhotoBucket, the UGO Forums, whatever);
  • Entries must be made as a comment or comments to this post, containing a link directly to the image and the character name;
  • Please name your files as [your name]-[character name].[file extension]. So DiCicatriz, for instance, would save his "Bayou Belle" character image as DiCicatriz-BayouBelle.png.
  • Please make the link 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.

Good luck! Hopefully this won't be too tall of an order for a one-day Pop Quiz.

    Firing off a quick one before work.

    Here’s my entry

    The Necro Cannon is a secret weapon of the necromancer. It is made of bone, and the insides are riddled with pentacles for summoning evil spirits. The user can actually summon the dark spirits into the gun and use them as energy, firing the ectoplasmic energy at their enemies.

    The Whistle Blower
    http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o240/watson_kaboos/watsonbradshawgun.png
    a gun designed by Tesla which works like a mini Hadron Collider rapidly speeding up the proton beams through the main chamber and focusing it out of the barrel. This brass beauty with the pearl handle was given to Tesla’s close friend Samuel Clemens, to keep out of the governments reach as it was far to powerful for any country to have.

    I am very satisfied with what I came up with, I got the over all design down but left color out to see detail and so that buyers could customize however they like. Ive seen people and myself kinda use this format before so I tried to revamp and own it myself. I hope you like.

    I should formally recuse myself from any prize for this contest–I drew most of the items in the Rifles and Heavy Weapons sections. I can’t help but submit an entry, though. Here’s my rune-scribed Dwarven Thunder Axe.

    Alien Guantlet Pistol

    I am NOT a gun/weapons guy. I don’t know what most of the peices in Pistols and Rifles are even for.
    But I put together this little number. I made it almost completely from Shoulderpads.

    (Jeff II like the Pop Quiz contest, I do ask that the deadline be the following day, for those of us who have work, school or in my case diaylsis since I usually have to nap afterwards before I get to HM3.)

    yikes. Jeff’s had hard choices. myro / tool the most real-functional, the necrocannon made me laugh. I would have voted for the alien gauntlet except it looks like the hand would cramp up avoiding interfering with the trigger. I have arthritic symptoms. Same-day deadlines would keep me out, too, but I sometimes can’t get to my own computer for four days at a time and haven’t mastered saving hm stuff to disk yet.

    Am I too late? I get confused with these time zones…

    Anyway. Here’s a) my entry or b) my contribution, as you wish. It’s a Plasma Rifle (in the 40 watt range). If you get any big Austrian blokes asking for one, best run.

    So here’s a good cartoony gun for you. It’s completely nonsensical, but hey, it’s got skulls and such. I guess it could be called the Golden Skull Gun, or the GSG for short.
