Creators Club: Update

Posted on March 1, 2016 by JR19759 | 6 comments

Hi guys, JR here.

Ok, so, quick run down on what’s going on here. After the entries for the poster closed, Stulte (who was putting the poster together this year) and myself agreed on a timeframe for when the poster was to be finished and posted, which was to be the following week. Later that week Stulte emailed me and asked for an extension, as he wasn’t able to work on the poster due to his not feeling well. I’ve since emailed him asking for an update and haven’t yet received a reply. Now, as much as I don’t want to have to do this, I feel it’s unfair on you guys who entered stuff for this years poster if you don’t get to see a poster, even if it’s not the one originally intended, so at this point I’m going to take over putting the poster together.

Now, first problem with this is I don’t have any of the entries, as they were all sent to Stulte. There are a few that have been posted on the forums and deviantart that I can get to easily but I think what would be best is for everyone to re-submit their entries (still within the original submission rules which I will post below). As I’m not asking for you to actually create a character this time I’m only going to give you guys a week to resubmit your entries, so next Tuesday (7th) is it.

The rules for submission are as follows:

1. Your entry must be in .png format. You must title it in standard contest entry style i.e. Username- Creators Club Poster (for example I would title mine JR19759- Creators Club Poster). Don’t screenshot the picture and send that in, export it as a .png please. If possible export it with a transparent background, because this makes putting the poster together easier.

2. You MUST include the text for your entry. Mandatory. This is incase Stulte needs to re-export any of the files in a bigger or smaller format. You can include it as an attachment in the email or just paste it into the email, but you have to have the text accessible.

3. Your email has to be titled something applicable to the Creators Club, so its easy to recognise as not-spam.

And if you could send it to me at jr19759@hotmail.co.uk

Sorry about this guys. At this point I want to get this done rather than have it sitting around not getting done. Thanks for the co-operation.

JR out.

Character Design Challenge ♯159- Redesign

Posted on February 29, 2016 by JR19759 | 24 comments

Ok guys, for this weeks contest I want you to redesign or redo one of your old characters. Everyone has characters that they’ve done in the past and everyone should have improved since they did those characters, so let’s see how much you have improved. Please bear in mind though, that to qualify you must include the original picture of the character you are redesigning. Oh, and obviously, only redesign your own character. It should be blatantly obvious, but just so there’s absolutely no confusion.

As per usual, no limits on the number of entries and the contest will close at midnight Saturday (blog time). Please read the contest rules before entering, have fun and good luck.

Rules for posts, contests, and challenges that I am hosting: Original characters only, no copyrighted characters, no characters based on copyrighted characters, no characters based on RPG’s or other games. The characters must be your own design and not based on any character that might be copyrighted in any way. I have the right to delete any post that I believe crosses this line without warnings. Only post characters that you have either created for this contest specifically or you know for certain have never been entered to a contest before. If you aren’t certain, don’t enter it, because I’m not going to go back through all of the contests and check.

While I loved Cliff’s entry, I have to give the win to HerrD for his very creative, and fairly creepy, entry . Normally I can’t handle clowns, but I love this guy!

Posted on February 27, 2016 by djuby | 4 comments

On February 27^th, 1827 – New Orleans held its first Mardi Gras celebration.

Your Pop Quiz challenge is to create a superhero or villain based on Mardi Gras that is worthy of the celebration and the city.

You only get one entry so be creative, and above all else, have fun!

All entries must be in JPG or PNG form (BMPs are too big), posted to a publicly accessible website (like the HeroMachine :,ImageShack, PhotoBucket, or whatever);

Entries must be made as a comment or comments to this post, containing a link directly to the image and the character name;
The image must be new and designed specifically for the Pop Quiz;
No copyrighted characters please – they will be deleted.
Please name your filesas [your name]-[character name].[file extension] before you upload it. 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). See this post on how to get the direct link for most sites.

This contest will close at 6pm Eastern on Sunday, February 28th.

Character Design Challenge ♯158- Power Up

Posted on February 22, 2016 by JR19759 | 8 comments

Ok guys, with this weeks challenge, what I want you to do is create a superhero or supervillain. The catch being you must show them using their superpower. That is the only requirement, the type of power doesn’t matter, the character just has to be shown using it in your entry. Simple really.

As per usual, no limits on the number of entries and the contest will close at midnight Saturday (blog time). Please read the contest rules before entering, have fun and good luck.

Kaldath’s Corner: DAREDEVIL on Netflix!

Posted on February 22, 2016 by Kaldath | 11 comments

I signed up for Neflix 2 days ago and binge watched the first season Of Daredevil! Well all I have to say is ….. This is ONE HELL of a GOOD series! This is not a review post, though I may do one of those later if I can figure out how to write it without spoilers! What this post is however is a recommendation! If any of you in the Heromachine community are contemplating signing up for a Netflix account but are unsure if it is worth it or not, well I am here to say in My own personal option DAREDEVIL alone is worth the price of admission!

I am Glad that I have waited as long as I have however to sign up for it. Watching the first season has left me wanting more and the second season is only a few short weeks away. If I had to wait months to watch season 2 I think I would be climbing the walls by now, that’s how good I think this series is!

Well that’s all I have to say so let me leave you a taste of whats to come if you decided to watch this show with the season one and season two trailer!

SEASON 1
