Halloween Designer Challenge 2015

[Brute]

This thread is gonna be a whole lotta nothing till October lol

That's the best case scenario. The worst case scenario is that I have to pop in every every few days for the next several months just to manage inane blabbering.

Also, the contest said they could use any of the submitted designs for non-Halloween DLC packs as well, so maybe we'll get some relevant info sooner.

I missed that. That is good news.

@Brute Haha, I missed that too. That means a lot of entries do have a chance. It would be crazy, if TN would use entries from the previous contests. There are also dawn good entries. =)

One thing is for sure - there will be a big Egyptian pack someday. =)

 

[Zeo]

Seriously all of these designs need to be put in one place and alphabetized. I want to see everything.

People really went all out for this last contest.

 

[TOBMAST3R]

So, I guess I have seen about 300 to 400 entries on Facebook + Twitter and I checked it twice. If there are actually 1500+ submissions, a lot of people used the e-mail system to send in their costumes.

This is gonna be a long long wait until september, when they start teasing the outfits. (well, I guess they are going to start it somewhere in that month)

@TOBMAST3R For my experience the hashtag system doesn't work always perfectly, actually it's possible include further filters on Twitter, while on Facebook I believe that the entries more old doesn't appear in the search (in the last contest I remember that I wasn't unable to find the older entries on FB); this time Anthony said me to have saved around 690 entries that he saw online, so I think that there is surely a part of them that you wasn't able to see.

By the way I'm just sure like you that a large part of the entries (maybe even the half) was released through mail this time and so very likely it's visible only to TN.

 

[Shiranui]

Do you mean there won't be public voting this time?

 

[UpSideDownGRUNT]

Nope, all TN

 

[Argentus]

Do you mean there won't be public voting this time?

Yes. Team ninja said they'll be doing it themselves this time.

 

[Shiranui]

I see. I didn't know they said that. I thought website was taking so long because of +1500 entries xD thanks.

 

[Kronin]

@Shiranui The source of the info is an answer given through mail from TN; maybe you could be interested to read these posts:

Also they responded to someone else asking on Facebook. Of course I can't find it anymore wh3n I go on their Facebook.

 

[Zeo]

I can't thank @Kronin enough for drawing and submitting my vision. I actually fell out of touch with him the day he submitted it so I couldn't give any critiques. Regardless everything was perfect except for a few color scheme alterations I would have personally wanted.

Just going to go ahead and show the differences in our color tastes here and toss the image to TN on Twitter to see what happens. Also excuse me if this counts as a bump...

Most of my submissions were half assed but I have high hopes for magician and the Leon designs at least.

Wish id put a little rose on the magician hat in hindsight, plus i shoukd have made the front as tight as the back of the pants, and various details across the designs. Shoulda put some laçey floral trim all over honokas dress as wellThere was also my blue mila redesign, but that won't make it in and I can't find it on their fb anyway.

And on Dunestone, coloring didn't come out half bad since i took like a minute on it lol


Its bugging me that we can't see all submitted designs this time, to get a feel for what may make it in game.

All of those are yours? They all look creative, and have a cool depth to them Nice job! Now I wish I would've submitted more than just one design....

Thanks! I didn't have my computer during the last two contests, so this time I took full advantage of Photoshop by cranking out designs.

 

[Candy Dragon]

@Argentus your Honoka design looks quite similar to @Antlers2012 entry for Eliot
