![]() Sadly that just wasn’t possible for us to do with this set.Ī lot goes into each new armor set including: concepting, modelling, texturing and finally importing and applying a unique material in-engine to each and every piece of the new costume. The concept also included an awesome idea for a spider leg back piece with custom animations. We decided to include two of those in the Holoforce armor set (the fixed wings and the blade wings), and we’re going to borrow some of the other wing ideas for the Psionic Dragon Armor. The Psionic Dragon Armor will be coming later this year.Įiledon included a ton of parts in his concept, including several wing variants. The first costume set that will be released is the Holoforce Armor Set. The pieces don’t really merge together as one set though, so we are going to make them separately. We decided to bundle eiledon and Necratech009’s designs together because they used the same central idea: holographic armor. We saw something new in the design that hasn’t previously been available to players in a full set before (translucent armor, which has great potential for the future).The pieces included in the submission work within existing Champions Online armor piece groups (chest piece, tights, belt, shoulder pads, etc.).The majority or entirety of the costume set is included in the submission.The concept followed the contest guidelines (both visual and written descriptions).These are the reasons I personally used when picking my favorites (the whole team voted): It was very hard for us to pick our top five (ish). There are a few reasons why we chose the submissions that we did. I know that can be pretty daunting (especially on the troll-ridden internets). There were many great designs submitted to us here at Champs and I want to thank each of you for submitting your art. …and this is Necratech009’s Psionic Dragon Armor Costume Set! This is the Holoforce Armor Costume Set submitted by eiledon… You guys voted and here are your winners: So difficult, in fact, that we bundled some of the submissions together so that that we’d get to include ideas from both of them if that ‘entry’ won. Towards the beginning of May I was tasked with creating a costume set based on a winning concept done by one of YOU in the “Design a Costume” contest! We had so many awesome ideas and designs come in that it was rather difficult to pick our favorites. I go by the name MEATIATOR! (My actual name is Charlie.) I am/have been/will continue to be a character artist here on Champions Online: Free For All. Sit back, relax, and let Meatiator show you how we made the Holoforce Armor set! Heroes, in April you designed and voted on a new costume set for Champions Online - and we're proud to announce that it's coming out very soon!Ĭryptic artist extraordinaire Meatiator is going to walk through how we chose the finalists from the contest, and show how the team designs a costume set, from concept art through rigging the costume pieces on the character model. ![]()
