Quote:"Red?! I tell you to crowd-source a paint job for my drop-suit and you chose -THE ONE COLOR- least seen on the battlefield?!" Amadi roared in disgust, flipping a table over as he approached the researcher with predatory intent.
"I'm s-sorry sir! It was voted on by mass majority! We all thought it was a good idea! We thought th-that if your enemies didn't see you bleed... you'd be...." The researcher responded, leaning back against the steel sink in a desperate attempt to put distance between himself and the psychopath that neared him.
Aeon Amadi wrapped his armored digits around the researchers throat, curling his finger tips inward around the man's esophagus as he leaned forward with hatred in his eyes.
"W-we had an early prototype that was.... Black and blue... It was scrapped because we felt th-that it wasn't according to design..!"
The researcher had tears in his eyes with pupils the size of dots, shaking in fear. The clone warrior glanced down at the researcher's sterile white slacks and noticed a growing stain that spread out from his groin. Amadi let go of the man's throat and began to walk away with a shake of his head.
"Do it again..."
Design a Skin Challenge 2
Rules:
Your submission -MUST NOT- be a skin that already exists in either Dust 514 or Eve Online.
Your skin will be on display. Don't send it in if you don't want the world to see it (though I can't imagine why wouldn't).
You understand, full and well, that this is a community challenge and the skin is likely not going to make it into the game unless CCP wants to make it so.
Your submission -MUST- be in a 500x500 pixel PNG format to be considered for submission.
Your submission -MUST- be sent to '[email protected]' by the submission deadline to be considered.
Limited to one (1) submission per participant. Make it count.
Deadline for submissions is no later than 12:00 GMT - July 29th, 2015.
Victor will be decided by community majority vote in a poll thread two weeks after submission deadline (12:00 GMT - August 13th, 2015).
Your submission should look similar to the templates I've posted below, displaying colors and/or patterns only. If you'd like to provide a secondary picture showing how it would look on the dropsuit, that is fine.
Rules subject to change at my discretion in the eventuality that silliness starts up.
In the eventuality that my own submission wins (lol) the prize will go to the participant with the next highest votes.
Prizes (may be added to as sponsors join in):
One (1) $50 Aurum Card from Gamestop worth 100,000 Aurum.
Submission Aid
With Design-a-SKIN 2, I'm wanting to include as many people as possible in the submission process. If you'd like to participate but feel your artistic skill isn't the greatest, I am willing to work with you for your submission. You should have a Skype account and add 'nomistrav' to your contacts list. I have a variety of camo templates to choose from and if you can't find something you'd like we can always make something new.
I am also willing to apply your submission onto either one of my girls so we can see what it might look like.
A Note on CCP's Inclusion
While CCP did join in on 'Design-A-SKIN Challenge 1' and included the winner's SKIN, I can make no guarantees about that this time around. I am still in the process of talking with them to see if they're interested in doing the same treatment this time. Should they join in as a sponsor, know that overly complicated designs are likely not to make it in the game and it is better to go with a pattern that is already in game (BDU and Digital patterns are already in the game).
Submission Format
Your submission should include the following:
- Your in-game character name
- Your submission (attached file/photo or imgur link)
- The title of your skin
- Subject line of your e-mail -MUST- say: "Dust 514 Skin Challenge Submission"
Good Luck!

Also, in the main post it says Aeon Amadi wrote:Your submission should look similar to the templates I've posted below, displaying colors and/or patterns only. Is this in reference to your girls, or are there recommended base templates we could use that you forgot to include in the post? I remember the first SKIN challenge had templates for a variety of looks.
I actually forgot to link something xD Give me a second, I'll have that fixed right up.

Yes please!
**EDIT**
Aeon, almost done with your bio. Should be able to finish it tonight. I was actually having a hard time last night figuring out a good tone for the piece. >.>'
It's all gravy xD Take your time with it.
And no, that isn't the Federation colors, was just a Forest Tiger-Stripe Camo I threw together xD

Take it up with CCP and see if it's considered RMT or not, first.

That's actually a pretty darned sweet base for testing these skins though, designs look so much better when applied to the suit versus when they're just the pattern. ... I really do wish they would have kept the black and blue glitched skin though. It looked so sexy.  Edit: Really looking over those... Dang, Aeon, that's some nice lineart~!
Thanks ^_^ Looks like all that time at the tattoo shop paid off xD

I actually have one for Caldari Medium that I made when I did my Deadsyn skin, though I would need to clean it up so it was less messy for public consumption.
Dude I would totally buy that.... You have no idea. It's like a better Covenant.

Still haven't completed the color mapping or the lineart (missing the face) but it's mostly done.

Thokk Nightshade wrote:SOOO, I have a template. I have a design. I have the color schemes. However, I'm not big on uploading pictures/sizing etc. How do I know if my example is 500 x 500 pixel PNG? And WTF exactly does PNG mean? Thanks for the help.
*edit* And PS, screw all of you with actual artistic talent. I can't even draw stick figures! Naw, in all seriousness, some of these designs I'm seeing are bad arse
*edit 2* I figured out PNG when I downloaded the camo pattern I had onto my desktop. So now all I need help with is figuring out how to ensure it is 500 x 500 pixels
Use GIMP to re-size it and save it as a PNG format.

Should hit me up on Skype sometime and we can paint my Gallente Scout Girl the colors you want via livestream :D

Would technically make the suit more visible and harder to hide with (effectively punching Scouts in the balls) but if you're willing to don the flashy armor, I say why not.
Hell, I'd do it.

Hey gents. If you want me to add it to a suit, hit me up on Skype so I can livestream it and we can work on it together so I can get it right. My skype name is 'nomistrav', shouldn't be too hard to find me, just look for the viking bro with the nose piercing and the minmatar jacket.

I have no idea. Try purchasing a cheapo aurum card from the American gamestop or whatever and see if it works? If you can find another retailer that issues out online codes like they do, I could just pay for it through them

As of six hours ago (I got my times mixed up, m'bad) the submissions for the contest officially ended. I'll be extending the voting time by 24 Hours as I haven't set up the poll yet and need to get on that when I'm back at my desk.
Any submissions that were sent in before 12:00 GMT today (six hours ago) will be ignored, per the rules.
Stay tuned for voting.

Voting will begin in a little less than an hour and run for a two week duration, ending at the same time as the CPM Election Voting. Results will be posted around the same time as the CPM results.
Security measures are in place to prevent multiple voting from the same person. I'll be monitoring this on a daily basis and removing suspect votes, same as last time.

Changed security settings on the voting system to maximum as I have 20 votes for the same submission from a single IP address.
These votes have been removed.
Don't try to cheat the system guys. My job IRL requires a high attention to detail and a lot of Sherlock Holmes work, I -will- figure out if you're trying to screw with the polls

I'd rather you didn't because it messes with the voting system and I have to manually go in there and check what's going on. I'll try to do daily voting updates but honestly this round isn't getting many votes at all.

Please don't write it off just yet Aeon xD...I'm already working on some moar ideas for one...and if you win a CPM seat you could get Dev Support before putting it up. I get that it wouldn't be as much a Community Challenge then, but at least it would get the publicity that a blue-tag nets
I doubt I'm going to make it into the CPM, just being real.
But on a side note there are currently 37 votes, total.

Due to the low turn out I will not be running a third one.
