<img:stuff/2237_wiki_help_9y7vcgcflr5.jpg>


Welcome to the Elftown costume design contest. This is not a Halloween contest, but a chance to show your skills at costume design, and/or construction. So, shall we begin?

<img:stuff/2237_wiki_help_9y7vcgcflr5.jpg>


Theme:
Game costumes! What we want to see: Costumes adapted from, or designed for your favorite game, be it, a role-playing game, a video game, or any other sort of game. Take a photo of, or draw yourself dressed as a Dungeons and Dragons character, or draw a costume for the next Final Fantasy game, or a Gothic horror roleplaying game. It's up to you. Be creative, and have fun!

Rules:
1: As usual, all work must be your own. No matter how much you love someone's costume, or drawing, you may not enter it for them. Anyone entering copied or stolen work will have their entry deleted.

2: Photos only, in the photo section, and drawings only in the drawing section. The competitions are separate, so please post entries in the right section. 

3: No photomanips. We only want drawings or photos of costumes you design.

4: Any photo of a costume, must have you (the elftowner) in the costume, so we know it is your work. There should also be an additional image of either the half made costume, or a reference photo of yourself, so we can verify the work is your own. (I know this can be a pain, but photos are too easy to steal, and difficult to verify) No photo will be accepted without the additional photo. No exceptions, sorry.

5: 2 entries per member maximum.

<img:stuff/2237_wiki_help_9y7vcgcflr5.jpg>


Size:
Since the chosen images will be featured on Main Street, we would like to keep them fairly small. Your image should be no wider than 300 pixels and the height should be no more than 500. Be creative but please keep that in mind!

<img:stuff/2237_wiki_help_9y7vcgcflr5.jpg>


Deadline: 2005-06-30.

This contest is now closed!

<img200*0:stuff/Dark_Mistress.jpg>
WAS: http://www.elfpack.com/img/image/9355_1115387349.jpg
My costume was inspired from the game The Addams Family I used to play it when I was little on NES.It wasn't the best game but It's funny how things just stick in your head.



2. "Slayer" - [Broken Saints]
<img200*0:img/drawing/Lost_Solja1056575075.jpg>
This costume was made for an X-Men Evolutions RPG is was in when I first joined Elftown. The design is a mix between Spawn (Face and Chest) and Gambit (Power-thingy and slim female like legs). The sword on the back came from Goku from DBZ, not the same... but thats where the idea came from.



3. "Vineg Tor'ael" - [Duredhel]
<img200*0:stuff/Vineg_Tor%27ael.jpg>
Drawing showing a Master Party character's equipment from Realms of Lemire.



4. "Rysallean Shadowcat" - [Duredhel]
<img200*0:stuff/Rysallean_Shadowcat.jpg>
[imsdal] as a Rysallean Shadowcat from Realms of Lemire, the drawing was originally made for if I lived in Lemire (click for large version)

A RP character of my own design for an RPG I hoped to start - "Twilight."



8. "Sluagh" - [maryanne]
<img200*0:stuff/Sluagh.jpg>
A sluagh character costume design. From Changeling. Larger version in my house.



9.-1st Entry: "D&D Halfling" - [Elisha Kelly]
<img200*0:stuff/D%26D_Halfling.jpg>
This is a design of my brothers rpg character. He is a halfling thief, the costumn is meant to black but to colour it would have taken away some of the detail.



10.-2nd Entry: "Final Fantasy" - [Elisha Kelly]
<img200*0:stuff/Final_Fantasy%3a_Modern_and_Funky.jpg>
I wanted to enter both a male and female costumn design for this contest, so my second entry is for Final Fantasy. There is no particular character in mind, though I did try to stay with the Modern and funky style of clothes worn by the usual FF characters.



11. "D&D Druid" - [kakjjkhjhd]
<img200*0:stuff/D%26D_Druid.jpg>
Well, I thought I'd do one too...Basically just a dress with some light footware for wandering around the forest...:)



12. "Conrack Ironhammer" - [Cassave]
<img200*0:stuff/Conrack_Ironhammer.jpg>
A rather dull character I developed in Arcanum. Pure technologist dwarven rifleman. I checked some of the conceptual artwork of the game's manual to make the armor a bit more 19th century carabiniers/heavy cavalry and less retro-ish medieval.



13. Final Fantasy X-2: "Yuna in a Different Outfit" - [itchykoo]
<img200*0:stuff/Yuna_In_a_Different_Outfit.jpg>



14. "no title" - [dilandau
<img200*0:stuff/Raziel_from_the_Legacy_of_Kain.jpg>
a redesign of Raziel from the Legacy of Kain video game series. b4 he was thrown into the lake.



15. "Zero's New Battle Armor." - [Konobi]
<img:img/drawing/46265.del/46265_1115781024.jpg>
Just some pixil art. It's simply Zero from MegaMan X2 decked out in new battle armor. The layout is the same, but the armor is different.



16. "Estantia" by [Estantia]
<img200*0:stuff/Estantia.png>
My friend made a pacman-style game with our rp characters and asked me to draw them. Here is me, gb link style, sized up from the original...



17. "Dark fae" - [Fire fae]
<img200*0:stuff/Dark_Fae.jpg>
(I have so many pics of my RP character it was hard to choose >.<)



18. "Fire fae's royal dress" - [Fire fae]
<img200*0:stuff/Fire_Fae%27s_Royal_Dress.jpg>



19. "Aino, Queen Of The undine." - [kerry555]
<img200*0:stuff/Aino%2c_Queen_Of_The_undine.jpg>
From the game Primal, instead of having the quen along with the rest of the race as fish-people, why not have her a human queen?



20. "Paradox Armour" - [Anomynous]
<img200*0:stuff/Paradox_Armour.jpg>
WAS: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v238/Thunder_wulf_X/Drawings/Paradoxarmour.jpg
An armour I designed for a D&D campaign. It has yet to be worn by a character.



21. "Durran Steel's battle armour" - [Anomynous]
<img200*0:stuff/Durran_Steel%27s_Battle_Armour.jpg>
WAS: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v238/Thunder_wulf_X/Drawings/DurranSteel2.jpg
This one was inspired by the Prince of Persia game (but I only took the idea for the sash from there) this explains why the character (kinda) looks like the Prince.



22. "larana" - [Ishje]
<img200*0:stuff/Larana.jpg>
this is a charackter i made for a role play game...



23. "noa" - [*akuma*]
<img200*0:stuff/Noa.jpg>
ok this is my costume design for the game tekken! a cute little fighting outfit! hope that fits the rules this time!



24. "Rinalla Saolin-Thestine" - [SeishinOkami]
<img200*0:stuff/Rinalla_Saolin-Thestine.jpg>
WAS: http://img253.echo.cx/img253/8951/sta0368b1kz.jpg
This is my RP character Rinalla in the Land of the Black Shadows. This drawing is the more detailed version of the outfit that I designed for her. Hopefully this fits the contest rules.



25. "Rose Warrior" - [Rin]
<img200*0:stuff/Rose_Warrior.jpg>
a character I am hopeing to use in a RP that one of my friends <i>should be getting up soon....I would give you the link but she hasn't made it online yet >.< But yeah...I was more concetrated on the coustom than anthing else for this picture ^^</i>



26. "Paddy Shamrock" - [Cassave]
<img200*0:stuff/Paddy_Shamrock.jpg>
A Halfling Magickal Thief I developed in Arcanum.
Not a very original name, but Paddy turned out to be quite a versatile old chap. I always pictured him like this 'cos I didn't
like the regular getups for the Minute Races.



27. "Dark fairy costume" - [eleihna]
<img200*0:stuff/Dark_Fairy_Costume.jpg>
Not very original but a wide skirt with several layers and a stylish top, and wings and it will make a perfect fairy costume. I think that it would fit in any fantasy game that has fairys or elves, I really like warlords battlecry, I think it would fit there...



28.-First entry: "Mystic" - [Ceres_de_Rehka]
<img200*0:stuff/Mystic.jpg>
Okay, I'm back. I totally forgot about my ORPG comissions. This is an illustration of a Mystic I did for the Ikimashozwei ORPG (there's a link at my house) and I think that means it fits the rules. 



29. "Jahanara Dhanyata" - [kerry555]
<img200*0:stuff/Jahanara_Dhanyata.jpg>
An improved image of her. She's an Indian priestess/witch/lycan(werewolf). for the wiki RP The dark Underground.

WAS: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v737/F_Irina_Vargas/Art/Step%20By%20Step/alternity-finished2.jpg
My AD&D character.



32. "no title" - [elody]
<img200*0:stuff/D%26D_Roleplay_Dress_1.jpg>
ummm I don't have any scanner... x.o meaning I used the webcam. that's why it's such bad pic quality. but anyhooooow, this one i drawed last summer, a dress I'd really love to wear in a future roleplay game... Like um.. D&D or something.
there's a detail pic for it there, as you can see, but it's not that good... I wanted to show the way the ribbons were set, on the arms, and on the sides of the dress. hope you like it!



33. "no title" - [elody]
<img200*0:stuff/D%26D_Roleplay_Dress_2.jpg>
I did see some people putting up two pics here, so I don't think it's against the rules... << >> but I promise I won't put up more. as a matter of fact, I don't HAVE any more. o.o anyway I thought this one's cute. ^^ I'd love to have it like a roleplay dress in summer. the other one's more winter or autumn like.



34. "Lady of Fire" - [Nightfall]
<img200*0:stuff/Lady_Of_Fire.jpg>
WAS: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v304/Nightfall_27/characters%20and%20stuff/firebirdcolor111.jpg
She's one of my many AD&D characters. She's a fire genasi with pheonix and dragon blood in her. Her name is Ilia. :)
Bigger version here:
http://photobucket.com/albums/v304/Nightfall_27/characters%20and%20stuff/?action=view&current=firebirdcolor11.jpg
all those lil sparklies are actually tiny lil scales due to her draconic heritage. :)



35. "Lady of Lightning" - [Nightfall]
<img200*0:stuff/Lady_Of_Lightning.jpg> Detail: <img100*0:http://elftown.eu/stuff/aj/119747/ETmembernr589_jaksorceressavatar2.jpg>
WAS: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v304/Nightfall_27/characters%20and%20stuff/jaksorceresssized.jpg
Sensing a theme here? Well, this is my wild elf AD&D character. She's a rogue, but also a powerful (and slightly crazy) sorceress who's exceptionally proficient with energy or lightning spells. This is a rare moment when she's dressed in her fine sorceress wear, rather than her usual rogue outfits.

36. "Eleanoor" - [dami]
<img200*0:stuff/Eleanoor.gif>
WAS: http://koti.mbnet.fi/impola/milla/images/vaatteita_e.gif
My friend is writing a fantasy-ish themed LARP game and I have helped her creating some charachters for it. This is my idea how charachter named Eleanoor could dress. She is sort of maid, but actually she's in so respected position that she doesn't really do any *work*, she just tells other maids what to do and gets paid well.. It's a bit of scetchy drawing, but you get the idea of the dress, right?



37."Rikku's new white mage costume" - [inuchild87]
<img200*0:stuff/Rikku%27s_New_White_Mage_Costume.jpg>
This is a new white mage outfit for Rikku from FFX-2.



38.-Second entry: "Mission's new Outfit" - [Ceres_de_Rehka]
<img200*0:stuff/Mission%27s_New_Outfit.jpg>
This is a new outfit I drew for Mission from Knights of the Old Republic. 



39. "Varoa's dress" - [The Hidden Happiness]
<img200*0:stuff/Varoa%27s_Dress.jpg>



40. "Godric" - [Cathos]
<img200*0:stuff/Godric.jpg>
(my grave robbing WFRP character)



41.-First entry: "dragon girl" - [Teufelsweib]
<img200*0:stuff/Dragon_Girl.jpg>
from a RPG some time ago



42.-Second entry: "no title" - [Teufelsweib]
<img200*0:stuff/RPG_Character.jpg>
For the RPG of a friend



43. "Vermillion" by [Asrun]
<img200*0:stuff/Vermillion.jpg> Detail: <img100*0:stuff/costumedetail.jpg>
With detail shot - Game: MMORPG game with sorcery (think, Ragnarok Online).



44. "Rina" - [Cat0132]

2005-05-12 [Estantia]: maybe i should enter little estantia... is it just one character?

2005-05-12 [Savien]: No Elandain quite a few more images will fit. Small ones like this, the page should hold up to 40 images, so I'm told. ;)

2005-05-12 [Savien]: and

DEADLINE EXTENDED

2005-05-12 [itchykoo]: there are alot of good ones

2005-05-13 [Konobi]: O.O! My originality is corrupted... *shrugs..* Oh well, good job Estania! ^.^

2005-05-13 [Konobi]: Uh oh.. Fire Fae joined the competition.. Good luck Fae!

2005-05-13 [Elandain]: Yeah, isn't she great? :D

2005-05-13 [Konobi]: She is. I know I'm not going to win... I guess I came to show my originality.. and slight promotions for my comic. But.. I get a badge for doing this, right? The participation badge? I've been in Elftown for a year and haven't participated in anything.. this is my new way of doing stuff ^^;;

2005-05-13 [Fire fae]: Thank you for organizing my posts whoever did it. ^_^

2005-05-13 [Konobi]: Fae! It's been too long, how's it going?

2005-05-13 [Fire fae]: It's going well but I don't think this is the right place to catch up on the chat.

2005-05-13 [Konobi]: Yes.. you're right. I hope to see you on msn one of these days. Good luck, I'm trying to beat you still! Hehe...

2005-05-13 [Estantia]: same here...

2005-05-13 [Konobi]: This is a costume contest.. but I'm beginning to see a lot of simply character sketches...

2005-05-13 [Lerune]: I agree -- 18 is questionable to me.

2005-05-14 [Konobi]: So

2005-05-14 [Konobi]: So's 19 (sorry Fae...) 23, 24, 25, 26...

2005-05-14 [ally]: *disagrees with [Konobi] on 19, 24 and 26* you can see that they 've put a lot of work in designing those dresses and 26's face is even partly hidden by the hat.

2005-05-14 [spiritee]: i agree that my 25 is crap and it'll be replaced, but hey, 24 was a lot of pain to design and draw. fyi, the other entries you mentioned obviously has design elements in them, and 19, especially, has beautiful details.

2005-05-14 [Elandain]: Personally, I like 24 better than 25, but why are you guys doing this? I think instead of pointing fingers, you should be complimenting people for their hard work.

2005-05-14 [Duredhel]: Yeah, I like 24 better than 25 as well.

2005-05-14 [Lerune]: I am not pointing fingers, thank you. I was merely stating that some of these might be questionable as far as theme goes. No one said the work was BAD, only that they might not fit the purpose of the contest. 

2005-05-14 [Elandain]: Yes, but I don't mean you in particular. But mister Konobi seems pretty content to label almost *everyone* as questionable...

2005-05-14 [Lerune]: Ah, I see. =o) I think they all look fine, but the one I mentioned even describes the entry as a character sketch, so that was why I mentioned it. =o)

2005-05-14 [Konobi]: Hey.. all the drawings are great. But.. this is a costume contest, not a "my roleplaying character sketch" contest...

2005-05-14 [Konobi]: Quit ganging up on me anyway. I'm only stating my opinion, you don't have to be rude about it... *glances to Elandain's direction..*

2005-05-14 [Elandain]: RPG's (Role Playing Games) happen to be games also. And they are wearing costumes. What's wrong with that? I think it's rather rude to try to throw everyone else's entries into question.

2005-05-14 [Konobi]: Well yes.. Roleplaying is a game, but some of them just seem.. showing off their art instead of showing off cosutme designs...

2005-05-14 [Elandain]: Quit nitpicking. That's not your job.

2005-05-14 [Konobi]: I am not nipicking. I'm only voicing my opinion. Alright? Eesh.. some people take to heart criticism..

2005-05-14 [Lerune]: Savien? Sunny? I think the dispute is best settled by the ones running the contest, no? =o)

2005-05-14 [Elisha Kelly]: Have you guys read the rules???? It states games including'costumn design for Rpg characters, if the costumn is not for or from a game it isna supposed to be here. So Rpg characters with there clothes on are legitamate entries...

2005-05-14 [Fire fae]: *laughs* I don't wan't to sound arrogant but the drawings I put up are far from being"sketches". I have put alot of efort on both of them. The first one shows my characters COSTUME in an role play game (Konobi you've been killed by her once). The second one show's just the COSTUME she wears in another role playing game. So no, ther aren't just character sketches. Plus people aren't ganging up on you, they are also expressing their opnion, so just stop thinking the world is out to get you.

2005-05-14 [Fire fae]: "some of them just seem.. showing off their art instead of showing off cosutme designs..." this from someone who admited that his entery was a way to advertise his comic strips.

2005-05-14 [spiritee]: Ah.. mixed up my numbers. Anyways, Konobi, we're just voicing our opinions, too.

2005-05-14 [Savien]: I'll belatedly step in here, and say opinions are always welcome, but by the same token I won't tolerate anyone running anyone else's work into the ground. I'm not saying anyone has done this yet. RPG characters fit the theme perfectly, so are allowed. I'm seeing a lot of original costume art. Anyway, opinions are welcome, unless you are trashing someone else's hard work. Fighting won't be tolerated either. Don't flame this page defending yourself if you feel innocent, just don't do it. Ok?  Let's be grown up, and have fun! Thanks ;)

2005-05-14 [Savien]: Oh, and # 12 and # 28 are bad links. Get these fixed please, or they'll be removed.

2005-05-14 [Fire fae]: I know and I'm sorry [Savien], just have this nasty habit of speaking my mind. ><

2005-05-14 [Savien]: It's over. And it's ok. Let's just have fun! :)

2005-05-14 [Fire fae]: ^_^ will do. Thanks.

2005-05-14 [Konobi]: I speak my mind too.. and I'm not running anyone's art into the ground. They are all beautiful peices of art...

2005-05-14 [Lerune]: I removed mine. I am not being a brat, I just don't know for sure if I completely fit the theme and I have only ever entered one other art contest, so I am still a but shy about my work...there is just too much argument here, so I'd feel better just pulling mine. I hope everyone understands - I am not trying to offend anyone. =o) I renumbered the entries and neatened it up a bit. Good luck, everyone. =o)

2005-05-15 [Elisha Kelly]: actually it is now #11 and #27 that are t he bad links, hee hee.

2005-05-15 [spiritee]: 27 works~

2005-05-15 [dilandau]: not for me it doesnt

2005-05-15 [spiritee]: oo it's directed from DA, why does it work for me? weird.

2005-05-17 [~-+.My Brain Melted.+-~]: Ahh...One of these is taken directly from a drawing book, costume AND character. [dendrite.]'s drawing is directly from a 'how to draw manga' book. I don't think it should count...

2005-05-17 [dendrite.]: the character is totally different

2005-05-17 [dendrite.]: if it becomes a bother then I'll submit my other one

2005-05-17 [Elisha Kelly]: I don't think it matters were the character is from if it is stated that the character is from wherever it is from... I thought it was just the costume designs that mattered?? but I suppose you would have to ask to verify though...

2005-05-17 [dendrite.]: thank you [Elisha Kelly] besides i have a version 2 of it anyway

2005-05-17 [Savien]: Ok people last time I'm saying it. This is a themed contest! The theme is costumes designed for a game. We're not interested in the character, only the costume, and the game it was made for. If your image did not have a game linked to it, it will be removed. And no [dendrite.] it's not ok, it does matter where the character comes from, and we want YOU to design the costume, not copy it from a How to Draw Manga book. 

2005-05-17 [Savien]: Images that do not fit the theme: 11, 15, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 33, and 34. These images will be removed today. If they are part of a game feel free to re post it with an explanation of the game the costume design is for. If you don't, I'll just have to remove it again. Sorry for the inconvenience, but it's not fair to the ones who DO read the rules, and follow the theme. Thank you....the management.

2005-05-17 [Savien]: Images that do not fit the theme removed.

2005-05-17 [Savien]: [dilandau] your link is dead since elfwood is down. You might want to just upload the image to the contest, rather than inlining it.

2005-05-17 [Konobi]: Phew... I thought mine would be removed.. ^^;

2005-05-17 [eleihna]: mine did fit the theme!!! Why was it removed?

2005-05-17 [Konobi]: *sighs..* I will help with that one.  "If they are part of a game feel free to re post it with an explanation of the game the costume design is for."

2005-05-17 [Savien]: Thanks Konobi. Right. I can make mistakes, and if I did i'm sorry. Re-post it CLEARLY stating what game the costume is for. Sorry for any mistakes again.

2005-05-17 [Konobi]: Yeah, no problem. I knew I was right on SOME of the drawings on here that did not fit the theme.. Sorry if I offended anyone else. It's not like my pixil art is incredibly 'leet' or anything of the sort ^^;

2005-05-17 [Savien]: It looks like video game art, but you might want to state it clearer. The reference is a tad vague.

2005-05-17 [Konobi]: That better?

2005-05-17 [Konobi]: Or.. does it have to be an rpg? If so I'll just remove mine.

2005-05-17 [Savien]: Much, thanks. :)

2005-05-17 [Savien]: No, video games, RPG's LARP's card games like Yu Gi Oh....any sort of actual game at all.

2005-05-17 [Estantia]: the problem is mine's used in rather a lot of games, so do i have to list them all? or just some?

2005-05-17 [Konobi]: Alright. Do you think I even stand a chance against the hand drawn art Savian?

2005-05-17 [Savien]: Sure. Entries are judged on several criteria, not just technical merit. Everyone stands a chance. :)

2005-05-17 [Konobi]: Alright. I MAY post another art... but don't expect anything technically hand drawn from me. I'm no good with costumes when it comes to hand-rawn art...

2005-05-17 [Estantia]: i could post the link to the main site for the games if you want.

2005-05-17 [Anomynous]: OK, well, just in case any of you have doubts...my first entry (currently, no.19) is an armour designed for a D&D (Dungeaons and Dragons) role play game, unfortunetly I don't have an actual character to wear it...the second one (no.20) is the armor of my character, Durran Steel, who is part of a D&D campaign

2005-05-17 [Anomynous]: And, since Elftown's been having problems I changed the links to my drawings (they're still the same files, only uploaded elsewhere)

2005-05-17 [Ceres_de_Rehka]: I just took down my entry because I can't remember what game I created mine for. I have a feeling it was some weird RPG, but I don't remember, so it went buh-bye. I might enter something else later though.

2005-05-17 [Yuriona]: There... just cleaned up the wiki a bit. Please number each entry separately and include the <*hr*> between each.

2005-05-18 [Savien]: Sorry Estantia I missed your question earlier. Just one game is fine. A link is helpful, but not necessary yet.

2005-05-18 [eleihna]: I hope you will accept my picture now...

2005-05-18 [Lerune]: [eleihna], it is lovely!

2005-05-18 [Duredhel]: still not a game costume :S

2005-05-18 [eleihna]: thank you [Lerune] well its a costume contest right and its fantasy, so I can use as a game costume..I hope I undestood the rules right, its difficult with the english and every thing..sorry :(

2005-05-18 [Yuriona]: Yes but the theme states that it must be inspired by a game and not just some pretty design you like.

2005-05-18 [eleihna]: ok Im really sorry to be so slow... =P

2005-05-18 [Lerune]: How do you figure it isn't a game costume? I role-play, and I have a book on my bookshelf for rolling up fairies and pixies as playable characters. 

2005-05-18 [Anomynous]: pixies and fairies usually count as NPCs (but they're still from a game that way, right?)

2005-05-18 [Lerune]: Yes, they normally count as NPS's but I do have a campaign addition here that allows them to be brought into gameplay, which rocks. ;o) Either way, they are game characters, I know we have encountered pixies, sprites and fairies in our adventures.  And the costume has a lot of thought and detail, so I don't agree with [Duredhel] that it isn't a game costume. I already mentioned the entries I have issues with. :/

2005-05-18 [Duredhel]: uhh... I think the rules of the contest say that the drawing has to be inspired by or designed for a particular game, which means you play the game, and then you design a costume based on it, as opposed to designing the costume and then thinking what game it could fit into

2005-05-18 [Anomynous]: And I'll second that! You know...it kind of looks like that Nymph from Shadows of Undrentide, doesn't it?

2005-05-18 [Yuriona]: And I'll third it. Even so, this will be up to [Savien] or [Sunny Silverunicorn] to decide since they are the contest administrators.

2005-05-18 [Anomynous]: Yes, but the administrators sometimes need a little help in making a decission (and I'll stop spamming now)

2005-05-18 [Yuriona]: Yes, I got such help with the ET Photograph Competition... -_-'

2005-05-18 [Sunny Silverunicorn]: eleihna, your pic could surely fit into any fantasy game, but the purpose of the contest is more like if you have actually designed the pic, and costume for a game. I agree with Dûredhel. It's not that we don't like to see all beautiful and detailed costume designs, but we set the "inspired by/designed for a game" rule as to have an specification for what costumes can actually be entered. Maybe later we can have other genres of the same designing contest, but this one, is dedicated to your inspirations and designs for a game character you have actually had experience playing with.

2005-05-18 [Ceres_de_Rehka]: erg... I tried to make mine as 28, but now it doesn't show up... After I go to edit the page, it says it's there and when I go back, it is. But if I go to this page via the main street, it's not... I'm confused. @.@

2005-05-18 [Lerune]: Costumes adapted from, or designed for your favorite game, be it, a role-playing game, a video game, or any other sort of game... Nothing was mentioned about pre-played characters. If this is the case, the rules need to be clearer then. But don't mind me, I am taking this contest off watch. I obviously don't agree with everyone's interpretation of the rules, so I am of no help at all. 

2005-05-19 [Ceres_de_Rehka]: nevermind, it works now ^_^

2005-05-19 [dilandau]: ok i fixed my pic a bit. its no longer a link from elfwood since elfwood has been wonky. and i tried to clean it up a bit. also its a bigger pic when u click on the thumbnail. :) i might try to color it if i have time.

2005-05-19 [eleihna]: Ok, thank you everyone for explaining and stuff now if you, Savien and Sunny silverunicorn decides to take it away again do so, I just sorry if i caused any trubble! I really really like these drawing competions and I hope that you have lots more to come! :D

2005-05-21 [Kuruni]: there, hope you all like it. :D

2005-05-21 [dilandau]: thanks fabi, now i know im not going to win ;)

2005-05-21 [Kuruni]: you are mean!! i really like yours a lot.

2005-05-21 [Konobi]: Oh hush you two. I'm the artist of the pixil art, who's to say I won't come in dead-last? ^_~

2005-05-21 [Elisha Kelly]: now I am insanely jealous!!!! i will have to colour my pics if I get time... I like your pixel art Kinobi... it's kinda retro... and cool! {oL0}

2005-05-21 [dilandau]: saying u are going to beat me is mean? lol

2005-05-21 [Konobi]: Retro...? I suppose it is kinda.. but.. Drawings logically take a longer time, and people put more effort into it. While mine looks stylish.. I probably would pick a hand drawn picture. But hey.. it's not about winning.. it's about showing off your "leet" skillz XD

2005-05-21 [Ishje]: there are really beatiful costumes here... i like this contest

2005-05-22 [Elisha Kelly]: hee hee, I like all the coloured pieces... they make mine look *sigh* plain... but I guess that is the artists lot, to be forever drooling over other works

2005-05-23 [Ishje]: yea you are right...

2005-05-23 [elody]: lol. i suck at colouring... 9.9 i like it, but as soon as i start, it goes to hell instead. i PROMISE it looks better on the paper over here beside me irl though....... x.x

2005-05-23 [Konobi]: Wow Ma'am! That's really good! ^^

2005-05-23 [elody]: oh hi kono.. ^^ thank you

2005-05-23 [Elisha Kelly]: oh, I can't wait to get my greedy lil hands on some computer software to help with my art... now it is all done the old fashioned way, with either pencil paint... hee hee, they don't always scan well.

2005-05-23 [dilandau]: try GIMP its a free paint program :)

2005-05-24 [Nightfall]: >.> err I hope posting a detail is ok for one of my drawings. I knew the other (lady of fire) would be too large, but I figured if the lady of lightning one fit the size requirements, and its still the same piccy... it would be ok. let me know if I should do otherwise :)

2005-05-24 [dami]: whee I finally found enough courage to enter a competition.. Hope my pic isn't too scetchy or something..:D

2005-05-24 [Cassave]: Erhm, changed first entry with a char that actually went places in Arcanum...

2005-05-24 [Corax]: nice designs... i shall have to finish mine n enter...

2005-05-27 [Konobi]: Hehe.. All I see are regular drawings. Maybe I can win some type of sub-category for most original. After all, who makes Pixil art here? And who actually submits it. I'm not trying to diss the artists, they all deserve to win rather than me, but... you get my point. Good luck everyone, again! ^^;

2005-05-27 [LonelyTylenol]: Wow... A lot of these are really good...

2005-05-28 [Teufelsweib]: I just had to enter such a contest, I really like it

2005-05-29 [ceridwen]: Slavork, your work is always awesome. I rember the peice you entered in the Anoumity(sp?) Contest...Eh....I feel unworthy to enter pixel art here. Not great compared to the rest of you. But at least I can try, right?...Yeah...

2005-05-29 [Teufelsweib]: thank you very much ^_^ and you should enter your work! the more the merrier!

2005-05-29 [kerry555]: Are mine any good?

2005-05-29 [ceridwen]: You shouldn't have to ask, but, yes, it's wonderful. Definately better than anything I can conjure up. I just need to find the right charrie, and the right costume. I need a special one. Yeah...

2005-05-30 [Elandain]: Aw, dangit [Asrun]. There goes my chance of winning... lol. :D

2005-05-30 [Asrun]: Eh, mine looks all poopy shrunk. :/ But rules are rules

2005-05-30 [Elandain]: Poopy skunk? More like... fantastic ferret.

2005-05-30 [Asrun]: I meant shrunk. XD

2005-05-30 [Elandain]: I know... just teasing. ;)

2005-05-30 [Kuruni]: wow! that is soooooooooo beautiful!!!

2005-05-30 [Asrun]: I have skunk on the brain.. My dog was sprayed last weekend and it still smells

2005-05-31 [dilandau]: wash him in tomato juice

2005-05-31 [Asrun]: We've done that.. And with coke, and with baking soda and hydrogen peroxide with dishsoap.. In total he's been washed at least 10times...

2005-05-31 [Duredhel]: I hear some Oatmeal on hot water does wonders with dog smells... though I dunno how effective it'll be in this case.

2005-05-31 [Asrun]: It's not dog smell.. ^^;; It's skunk. ._.;; Which is oil that likes to live in protein.. We're having a hell of a time. :/ 

2005-05-31 [Savien]: Ok folks, once again, we have a theme. you need to tell what game the costume is designed for. If not, it will be removed. Thanks ~ the management :/

2005-05-31 [Duredhel]: Shave him XD if the smell doesn't come off at least he'll look funny.

2005-05-31 [Asrun]: Eee! Sorry, forgot that Savien. Fixed now. ^^ 

2005-05-31 [Asrun]: He's a huskiexshepard.. o.o You can't really shave him.. >.o;

2005-05-31 [Duredhel]: you can shave anything :) you just have to try hard anough XD

2005-05-31 [Asrun]: o.o;;; All the other dogs will laugh at him!

2005-05-31 [Duredhel]: That's good :P he'll make a lot of friends ^^ people like funny people... dogs... thingies

2005-05-31 [Asrun]: This is fun, cause I want to get into Video Game Character design. ^________^

2005-05-31 [Duredhel]: heheh :P same here, uhh, actually I had a question for ye :), you drew [Leara]'s Lykia right? well she's in my request list, but i'm kind of stuck there (and can't move onto the other requests) cuz I can't seem to get a 'feel' for the char, dunno if i'm making any sense here, but whatever, what I'm trying to say is, any pointers you could give me?

2005-05-31 [Asrun]: I dunno.. I just drew her.. :I I don't know what else to tell you. *lol* ^.^;;;

2005-05-31 [Duredhel]: haha ^^ ok, i'll see what comes out then :P

2005-06-01 [dilandau]: y is it a password protected page now?

2005-06-01 [Asrun]: There's a second page now. This one is full. ^^

2005-06-01 [Savien]: Entries 45 and 46 need to say which game they are for.

2005-06-01 [Asrun]: *ish working on a new entry* This contest is awesome. ^.^

2005-06-01 [wendahloosa]: I am just amazed at some of these amazing entries! Great work everyone! *smiles*

2005-06-01 [Elandain]: I think I'll do a second one, also. Now that the deadline is extended. Perhaps a female character... :)

2005-06-01 [Kuruni]: good, a second entry! im off to work on anotherone!!

2005-06-07 [Jitter]: 17 is the best so far imho :D

2005-06-07 [Elandain]: Nope! Number 30... lol. ;)

2005-06-07 [Asrun]: They are all wonderful! ^______^

2005-06-07 [kerry555]: woo! that means mine are too!

2005-06-13 [shadows kinky kitty]: woa Im 2 scared now! I know that I'll lose now ; ; these are WAY 2 good

2005-06-30 [nokaredes]: What's the password?! I lost my power half an hour ago, I just got my computer restarted!! It can't be closed!!! T_T

2005-06-30 [Asrun]: You have to put them up on the second submissions page. ;)

2005-06-30 [nokaredes]: ...second...right...you had me scared.

2005-06-30 [Asrun]: Hehe! Well, it closes tomorrow. My tablet died, so I didn't get to submit a second one... But I have an idea of what to submit now.

2005-06-30 [nokaredes]: I don't even have a tablet, I did mine in pen. New medium for me, very streaky, but at least I got it in on the last day! (BTW, on ET time, it's the 30th right now...)

2005-06-30 [Asrun]: AHCK! Better get the entry in then. :P Well, I don't have one now, but I like colouring my work.. Maybe I'll play around with my new markers

2005-06-30 [nokaredes]: I did! (whew!)

2005-06-30 [Anomynous]: Not that I'm keen on finding out I lost, but...when will the winners be announced?

2005-06-30 [Charybdis]: As I recall, the last one took around a couple of weeks or so. There are less images this time, though, so maybe it'll be a shorter wait *shrugs*

2005-06-30 [Asrun]: I thought there would be A LOT of entries for this one.. It was so much fun. :(

2005-06-30 [Charybdis]: I would have entered for sure, only I'm no good at fanart and I don't have an RPG character per se ^^; Perhaps there'll be a non-game costume design contest sometime ^^;

2005-06-30 [Asrun]: This isn't fanart. :) You can make a totally original character that could fit into a game.

2005-07-01 [Konobi]: It seems the deadline is here. Oh... I can't wait to see the winners!

2005-07-01 [Charybdis]: Gak! I read the instructions the wrong way, then... nooooo!!!! I interpreted it as redesigning costumes for existing game/ RPG characters ;_; *bangs head against wall repeatedly*

2005-07-03 [Savien]: It could be either way. Create a character, in costume, or use an existing one. Sorry for the confusion.

2005-07-03 [Charybdis]: Oh well ^^ Next time, I suppose.

2005-07-19 [Savien]: Ok people read the news on MainStreet. The winners have been chosen, but we've worked up a little surprise to go along with this one.

2005-07-19 [nokaredes]: *has voted* Gee, you sure can make me feel like my vote counts...

2005-07-19 [Savien]: Every vote counts ;)

2009-03-30 [Artsieladie]: But I can't get #15 [Konobi]'s to work even though I tried a few possibilities, because it still has the ol' "lysator.liu.se" in the link. :(

http://elftown.lysator.liu.se/img/drawing/46265_1115781024.jpg

2009-03-30 [Artsieladie]: Thanks, [Hedda]! :)
