Champions Online Costume Contest!

edict

Hello Heroes!

Are you one of the secret heroes Millennium City? Well we want to see you suited up and ready for action! For the next three weeks we’re going to be running a fun costume contest. The rules are pretty simple:

1. Dress as any of your Heroes from Champions Online
2. Share your picture in our official thread (HERE!)
- One picture of you in costume as your character, or as a character you have permission to dress up as,
- AND One picture of your character in-game

Also, you are allowed to have multiple entries.

And that’s it! Once the three-week period is up, (last day is November 11th) the devs will come together and decide on our winners, which we’ll announce here on the forum. There’s going to be multiple prizes, so we’ll have multiple goodies to giveaway!

I think you guys aren't getting it. You, human person, in costume. Cosplay, not in-game.

Well, both actually. You dressing up as your in-game character.

I can't wait to see what sort of cosplays are put up.​​

nepht

Heck I've been dressing up as Nepht since CoH meet ups and stuff


Or should I say Nupht dresses like me. Spent hours making sure her face looks like mine >_>"

Question - does have to be our own characters? Or, assuming that we get their permission, can we dress up as other player's characters?

Hi heroes!

Sorry for all the confusion! I'll try and address some of your questions and clear things up.

Yes. It's fine to dress as someone else's character as long as you gain their permission.

akaara1 said:

Real life picture of your character in CoH?

Both. 1. Picture of yourself as your character (or the character you have permission to dress up as) and 2. A picture/screenshot of the actual in-game character.

If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.

Hey, a tin of blue paint should do the job.

l think @nepht may end up as the only participant, thus automatically winner.

markhawkman

Are we allowed to enter more than one costume, supposing we can finagle dressing up as more than one of our heroes?

Yeah its a cosplay contest I wouldn't expect any entries for at least a week these things take ages to make. I had a pic or two already because I used to turn up at CoH meet ups and conventions (yup I played Nepht way back then also :P ). Younger peeps these days are pretty OP with their cosplays. Pretty sure some truly majestic entries will appear sometime next week.

Hi Heroes!

We've met up, talked about all the entries, and have picked the winners. Before I announce who they are, I would just like to take a moment and thank everyone for entering. We loved seeing the diversity of styles everyone had, and seeing your creativity in action. Also, if you did not win this time, don't fret, we're going to try and have some more contests in the future, and not just costume ones.

So, our first place winner is onemanarmyason.
