    I've got a couple of entries at the moment. I don't like either, but whatevs.

    First is Meliora, which I've had these seasonal outfits for for a while. Since she's a dryad, it's assumed she normally goes through these phases as the seasons change:

    Separated into 2 posts, now that I read the rules a bit closer, derp.

    Just another bump since the weekend is approaching! There's still plenty of time to enter, and there's no minimum of entries you can have! So get those creative juices flowing!!

    Also Ninja, I'll consider extending the contest, but I won't make that decision until later next week. I don't like to adjust my time frames unless something comes up on my end.

    Entry for my Snömannen (Scandinavian yeti) character, Hela. Mostly seasonally appropriate camouflaging with a touch of sasquatchian tradition and biological shifting.

    I separated this into 2 posts, as per the rules on the image:

    Made specifically for this contest, is Environ: A Mechanon-built robot made for understanding the functions and production of plant life, by seeding, cultivating, and of course 'naturally selecting' various flora.... So that Mechanon can create substitute robot plants, of course.

    The forum will probably make these images stupid small. Click on them for full-res Imgur links.

    Piffle in her spring outfit, enjoying the cherry blossoms
    Season_Spring.jpg

    Piffle off to a summer vacation at a tropical island. Here we see her talking with one of the natives.
    Season_Summer.jpg


    Piffle in her fall school uniform. Not sure why she's there in the middle of the night, though.
    Season_Fall.jpg


    Piffle's cute winter outfit. Whether she decides to go skiing or ice skating, we can be sure the night will end with a hot cup of cocoa with extra marshmellows.

    On a side note: gah! what horrible lighting for pictures! time to get a new photographer, or at least a better flash!

    Gynoid 6.0, a malfunctioning femmebot with a penchant for cutesy things, enjoys the quirks of biotomatons- like the way they acclimate the decorative patterns of their environmental protection layers as the weather shifts. These are her attempts at mimicking the most common of these patterns- like how humans wear ridiculous hats in the summer when they engage in nautical-based activities.

    Here's my entry. Click on either of the two images to see them in full size:
    Spring_Summer.jpg
    Autumn_Winter.jpg

    I wanted to make a nature-associated character that would not be too obviously tied to one element (rock golem, kappa, etc). At long last, I settled for a female faun.

    I tried to stick with the traditional colors for each season (well, yellow might bot be the most common color for spring, but I wanted to give it a crisp flowery vibe and dandelion yellow suited it best).

    My main aim was to evoke the images of each season, without making the costumes too gimmicky, too busy or unsuitable for actual superheroic action. I wanted to make this a believable costume taht could be seen in a silver or golden age superhero comic, not to add too many superficial bells and whistles to it.

    Here is my entry! I tried to stick to the "traditional" color palate of each season to make seasonal Knight Guardians!


    Spring Knight!

    Created for the purposes of this contest, Display is a Millennium City costume shop mannequin who springs to life after hours to fight crime, typically in whatever holiday's costume had been in the store's window front. Featured are the Spring Festival, since MC has a large Chinese population, Independence Day, Halloween, and Xmas.

    And now.... the results!!!!

    There wasn't a single entry that I didn't like so this was very hard to narrow down, BUT I managed to choose what I felt was both creative and an interesting take on representing the seasons. And wouldn't you know it.... THERE WAS A TIE!!!!!

    Congrats to BOTH illirica for their Snömannen Hela and wraith9th for their soldier, Agent Umbra Kage!!!!!

    So now that I had a tie I needed a way to split the prize... HOWEVER it being the Christmas season I decided that you will BOTH RECEIVE A $20 Zen Card!!!!

    In that same spirit I would also like to congratulate bluhman for his super clever Environ! So as a runner up prize I'm offering him 500G for such an interesting character and representation of seasons!!!!!

    BUT THAT'S NOT ALL FOLKS!!!

    I want to give the remainder of players who entered something for submitting at least one entry. Like mentioned above there wasn't a single look that I didn't like, and you all deserve a little something for your really cool looks! fortunefire, thistleswift1, sabratha, xrazamax, and zamuelpwe will each receive 100G for entering ^.^

    Since I don't know everyone's ingame @handles, if you could send me an ingame mail I'll be in contact to hand out your respective prizes.

    CONGRATS once again to my winners, and thanks for participating everyone!!!
