    Do they have to be newly made, or can I enter some of my already existing 2.5 creations ?

    New or old is fine with me, as long as they have not won a contest before.

    NOTE: I’m trying a different site, because Tumblr always changes the names on me. I think that’s why I don’t win — please let me know if this works.

    here’s my entry for the hm2.5 blog contest… (aw my first time to use 2.5… please don’t be harsh on me 🙂 )

    a master of the shadow artist’s way of killing, he is a top caliber assassin with unknown origins, and those unlucky ones to ever see him never had the chance to tell of the story.

    BIO:
    World wrestling champion Johnny Denim, better known by his fans as Mister Fancy Pants, was known for his elaborate and flamboyant costumes. One day a pair of wrestling pants made from a material he had never seen mysteriously appeared in his dressing room. After putting them on, he was transported to an alternate medieval dimension. Now he fights evil kings and sorcerors with his awesome wrestling moves using his trademarked catch phrase, “Say hello to Mister Fancy Pants”.

    I have a character just about ready to go, but I don’t have a good name for him. Would you still accept him or is a name absolutely required?

    Also, when’s this week’s deadline?

  19. Bryce Wasley says:
    April 19, 2013 at 1:29 am

    Also, how do you post the picture on Heromachine itself?

  20. prswirve says:
    April 19, 2013 at 4:01 am

    You have to join the forums and create your gallery there. Then just paste the link of the pic. That’d be easier to load that way.

    @Bryce, the contest closes 7am my time on Sunday morning.

    Some updated characters:

    Belle Fleurs’ vigilante Tenebre. His enemies, members of the LeMontagne crime family: a Capa (“captain”) and an enforcer.

    The Jade and her archenemy Totenkopf.

    Shameless self-promotion of yours truly. ;9
