Part 1 of 4 in Imp’s Friday Night Fights victory prize request is up and available for your use in HandRight-Standard (clear your browser’s cache if you don’t see it):
The bandage part is color1, and the area that receives any Patterning. I figured you’d probably want to be applying dirt or blood or leopard spots (I don’t ask) to the bandagy part since the skin is mostly hidden. If you’d rather I reverse it, just let me know. Color2 is the skin portion.

Me, Myself, and I … um, and I … have finished his prizes for a couple of contest wins, now available in Insignia-Nature:
He requested a strand of Celtic knots to use as a facial tattoo, but after chatting about it, we thought it would be more versatile to break the string into individual bits that can be manually strung together so you can get just the effect you’re going for. Here’s an example, showing one of each of the knots all lined up:
Because of the way the strands run, to get the colors to work exactly right you might have to flip alternating instances, and then rotate them 180 degrees, to line up properly. Hopefully you’ll find them useful.

You may recall that last year I exercised my executive privilege to revert a bunch of unclaimed contest prizes back to the community. You all came up with a ton of suggestions for those unused prizes, and voted on the ones you most wanted to see happen. Since then, some of those items have been done and some remain, while others have been chosen as prizes by new winners. I wanted to update everyone on the status of that ongoing effort, so here’s the current list:

Watson Bradshaw requested a set of legs that would terminate at the knees, as if the character were kneeling. Since that’s been requested by lots of folks, I thought it would be wise to go ahead and publish the first pass at it for general comment, though since it’s Watson’s prize he gets the final word. Here’s the screen grab of it:
It’s now live in “Body-Male-Standard” and once we get it finalized (i.e. Watson says he likes it), I’ll do a set for the female body as well. Let me know what you think, changes you think it needs to be fully functional, etc. I put in one for the left and one for the right leg.

Finishing up Imp’s prize from Character Contest 33, I’ve converted these three hands from the Modern Warrior mini to HeroMachine 3 Alpha:
Thanks for your patience, and for the suggestion, Imp!

I’ve just posted the “Tops-Female-Fantasy-Common” set to HeroMachine 3, a conversion of the previously released male items to fit the standard female body. As usual, if you don’t see it on the list, clear your browser cache. Enjoy!

My apologies for how long it took me to post these, but some time ago Hammerknight put out two recipe cards for making good elves in HM3, and I thought it was long past time to share them. Thanks HK!

I’ve just added the Tops-FemaleFantasyArmor set to the HeroMachine 3 Alpha. Let me know if you spot any problems (other than the one that shows the pattern in the midsection that’s supposed to be bare). As usual, if you don’t see it in the list, clear your browser’s cache and reload HM3.

In honor of this silliest of American traditions, and with thanks to SpiderCow2010 for choosing it as his contest prize, I give you … PunkinHead!
This nightmarish visage can be found haunting the pages of “Head-Zombies” in HeroMachine 3 even as we speak, in both a blank pumpkin and face-carved version. Enjoy!

With profound thanks to Me Myself and I (meaning the frequent contest entrant and commenter, not literally me, Jeff Hebert) for putting this together, I am happy to present what may be the most ambitious Recipe to date — MMI’s Super Creepy Halloween Cemetery. I thought it would be the perfect fit for the Halloween week.
Next week we’ll have another installment of Hammerknight’s great “character archetypes” series, but this one was too perfectly timed to wait.
Thanks again MMI!
Note that if anyone else has recipes or how-to visual guides they’d like posted here, by all means send ’em on.
