Authors Wanted!

Posted on August 2, 2015 by | 6 comments

Hello, Guys and Gals of the HeroMachine community!

 

I am writing today to let you all know that I am looking for people who may be interested in writing articles for the HeroMachine blog! As of late I have noticed that I am having difficulty getting my post out on time and that I have been letting the bulk of the writing duties to JR which I believe is a bit unfair. I personally can not commit to any additional writing time at the moment and so I turn to you the community for some help. If any of you are interested in taking up the keyboard for HeroMachine drop me an email at Kaldath@heromachine.com and we can discuss it.

Character Design Contest ♯131 (All In One) Winner

Posted on August 2, 2015 by | 7 comments

Well that was a disappointing turnout for the poll. Considering the quality of the entrants, to not even get 90 votes is rubbish. I can’t even say that people saw that the winner was running away with the vote and so they didn’t vote, because he only won by 14 votes. I don’t know.

Anyway, this weeks winner, by the aforementioned number of votes and picking up his first CDC win in the process, was Skoul for his piece HeatStroke. Congrats Skoul and well done to everyone who entered.

Back to the old look

Posted on August 1, 2015 by | 4 comments

As you can tell, I’ve moved back to the old theme — the new one was woefully underperforming. Sorry for all the changes, but I reckon this one will remain for quite a while, as it’s certainly proven itself to be … superior.

Character Of The Week: Ubiquitous Pixel- Spartacus Attacks

Posted on July 31, 2015 by | 4 comments

Gonna be a condensed COTW this week unfortunately, due to me being very short on time. But it’s not like there’s a lot that needs to be said about this one anyway, nor is there much that can be said, due to the fact that it is very hard to speak when ones jaw is on the floor. I mean look at how the pose was put together, the masking that makes up the torso is incredible and the same for the helmet. The entire thing just screams action. Job well done.

Design Update

Posted on July 27, 2015 by | 6 comments

Hey all, I’m giving the new design another few days, but at this point it has cratered ad revenue. If it doesn’t start to equalize a little, I’m going back to the old design. Just a heads-up so you don’t get whiplash too bad if it happens.

Character Design Contest ♯132- One Shot with One Slot

Posted on July 27, 2015 by | 12 comments

Ok guys, last week I gave you freedom to pretty much do anything you wanted. This week is going to be much the same. However, you can only use items from one category for your entry. For example, you could only make a picture using items from the Items-Right category, or you could make a picture from items from the Heads category. This should make for some interesting results.

As per usual, no limits on 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.
