Get ready for your pop quiz, kids! Your one-day quick-fire challenge is to use this item from the Belt-Military set (first page, second row, third item) in a creative way:
Your submission must include this item. Although it's originally a belt buckle, I'll warn you that a dude wearing a belt with this as the buckle has zero chance of winning. Be creative! You might turn it into a weapon head, or a helmet of some sort, or a robot's main body, or a cool sports logo.
You only get one entry -- that's right, just one! So make it your best.
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.
The winner will receive their choice of either one item or one portrait to be included in the final HeroMachine 3 release, or one Sketch of the Day style drawing where you pick the subject and I draw it how I like.
Good luck!
I know you said we shouldn’t use it as a belt buckle but this is pretty sweet. Once Wolverine and the rest of the X men put this belt on they all join bodies and create Ultimate X. But don’t worry ill make another one with it too.

Ok I have one question. How do I copy and paste my image of the military-belt-buckle onto the UGO forums and do i just copy and paste the link into a comment?
You use the “export” feature to get your image as a JPG or PNG. You make an account on the UGO Forums. Open Forum window, choose Browse, find the file you just saved, and hit ‘Open’.
If you want to use the forums here on this server, see these instructions.
Or you can out the image on ImageShack, PhotoBucket, wherever, it doesn’t matter.
Then yes, post a link to the image here in the comments.

The belt buckle is used as a thin chain across the chest and as inserts in the eyes to keep them open

Title: No Exit
Look at the window of the door and you see why you dont want go to the exit.
I looked at the challenge, and thought, ‘Oh, yeah, this looks like fun! I can so do this!’ But then, I looked at the other entries, and just went: ‘I. Am. So. Screwed.’ Oh well, at least I get to enjoy looking at all ya’ll’s entries. Love, love, LOVE the x-ray one!
Okay I am happy because I came up with something cool and I haven’t been able to think of much to make lately so without further adieu I give you…

Sort of a medieval bandit.
This is the Belt Bot. Every item came from the belt sets.

I meant “recycled,” of course. Damn stack overflows won’t let me edit!
Here is mine. Not as creative as the others with the item.

I almost didn’t make this Pop Quiz.
Today was a mutha at Dialysis so I laid down when I got home and slept all evening and didn’t get on the computer till 11PM.
I have been working on poetry for a Pirate/Nautical poetry contest, then of course we have the current Character contest, so this came to mind.

Make it easy on yourself and just use the Forums link at the top of this page, and put it on my server instead 🙂
