Zexion_Armando Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) Just a quick question... Can it a persona made by someone? The person/persona debuted back in 2008, and has since become a huge celebrity and modern music icon...

luke314pi Posted January 22, 2014 Author Share Posted January 22, 2014 Yes if you want to do a celebrity, then their "debut" can count as their "creation". Good question! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcastick Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 This is making me wonder if I can come up with anything and get it done. Hoping so, it's been a while since I've done any customizing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBT! Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I am a little disappointed at the lack of entries for this contest. Below is my QC for the contest, hopefully it'll show you don't have to be talented at painting or sculpting to enter, just creative and perhaps have a little fun. Negan from the walking dead. Lets see if we can't finish this with a bang and try to get at least a dozen entries before the close? T. p.s. As staff I am making myself ineligible for the prizes\placing.

Captain Paco Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Okay, I am submitting my entry for this contest. I wish I had some different parts to use but I worked with what I had. He as finished for about a week but have been having a hard time getting this image to upload to my photobucket at work so was a little delayed getting him posted. Here is my entry. Jake from Disney's Jake and the Neverland Pirates. I gave it my best with the details. I am not good at sculpting so I just used a vest part I had. I made a chest decal but the flesh tone on his chest was faded out with the flash on the camera which I thought was turned off and still kept flashing anyway. I used a sword that sort of looked like the one he has but like I said I am not good at sculpting at that scale. I hope you all like him. Thank you.

Somehow I missed this before! I should have thought of internet/video game characters earlier - yes they are definitely allowed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
