Most Esteemed One-Shot Contest Thread.

LOL y'all fools are whack. Ok, next up:
DC Comics in SCV!
DC-Universe-in-Lego.jpg

Too lazy to find a pic with villains, but they're also eligible entries.
 
I'll start things off with
CYBORG
SOULCALIBUR Ⅴ_3.png.jpg
SOULCALIBUR Ⅴ_5.png.jpg
SOULCALIBUR Ⅴ_6.png.jpg

Notes: Mix of Teen Titans, Injustice, and a whole bunch of other costumes. But mostly just dicked around with the equipment 'till it worked for me. The robot face is actually supposed to be on the other side, but I'm hoping you guys won't notice that. Face SpecEq is sphere, scroll, and halo. Robotic half-face is extended with black heart and dragon stickers. Arm and chest detailing (skin) and belt jewel (pants) are all zipper stickers. Central star sticker on pants for codpiece. Weapon of choice is robot dog, of course.

Just to clarify, the submission deadline is Tuesday, December 16. And don't forget - villains are fair game too! I will not be accepting votes this round, but I'll be creating and heckling as usual. Best of luck, mates.

Hex editing's a large negatory, good buddy. Might want to keep those ones under your hat.
No hex edits in contest? or period on the site? unfamiliar with rules and not normally a forum user..should i consider deviantart for my creations? no idea if the view/policy is on mods are different on a non soul calibur based presentation.

Welcome to 8WR, Suggs! Your creations are actually very attractive, and your combinations of various hex-edited equipment are quite clever. As the others have noted, hex-editing is prohibited here, but I'd be glad to collaborate with you. The normal CaS engine may seem intimidating at first, but its limitations are actually tremendously helpful in focusing your character design. I'd love to see you start a thread here, and I'll be sure to comment on and critique your work if you do. If you're still looking for places to post hex-edited works though, you might try the GameFaqs SCV forum or DeviantArt. Whatever you decide to do, I wish you the best of luck.
 
Back on the subject of SCV/DC:

Loli Harley/Harlita/Lolequin
SOULCALIBUR Ⅴ_7.png.jpg
SOULCALIBUR Ⅴ_2.png.jpg
SOULCALIBUR Ⅴ_3.png.jpg

I like how in the first shot she's smirking menacingly while hiding that mega-hammer behind her back. Inspired by her New 52 costume. The prayer bead necklace's supposed to accent the Japanese look. Clash is the name of the game here. Hair extensions are two sets of pirate horns w/ gradient pattern (for color separation). The hair ribbons are one pair of crossed long horns. Random pocket stickers. Belt's extended onto skin using reset zipper sticker (2nd most useful sticker ever). Undies/leggings are made red using @FreeMeal's dithering trick (search "dithering" in 8WR for more info).

For everybody else out there looking for DC characters, it's OK to repeat characters. If you wanna make another Cyborg or Harley, go right ahead. Always cool to see other perspectives. I've got another 2-3 on the way, so we're probably gonna repeat at some point anyways.

Here's another:

RONIN NIGHTWING (aka nightronin/roninwing)
SOULCALIBUR Ⅴ_7.png.jpg
SOULCALIBUR Ⅴ_8.png.jpg
SOULCALIBUR Ⅴ_11.png.jpg

Based on the New 52 Nightwing. Honestly, the classic blue design fits the "night" theme better, but it just didn't work with the samurai gear. Story-wise, since he broke away from his mentor, Batman, Nightwing really is a ronin in a modern sense of the word. 2 more reset zipper stickers for the trimming on pants.
 
I've decided make Starfire.
SOULCALIBUR Ⅴ_106.png


I've went for her Pre-New 52 look, since her New 52 look is pretty hard to make in SCV.

SOULCALIBUR Ⅴ_108.png
SOULCALIBUR Ⅴ_107.png


I should have gone for her Teen Titans (Animesqe version) look, there was more detail in that. I might do that later.
 
I had Catwoman version of Natsu in my game file.
SOULCALIBUR Ⅴ_113.png

The Dark Knight Rise was obviously the inspiration and took some creative liberties. I added black and grey.

I thought it would be fun to do the Music Meister from Batman: The Brave and the Bold, but he ended up looking like bootleg Joker :/ lol.

Oh well, I at least like how the music noted and buck teeth turned out.
 
Lotsa great ideas goin' around, but gotta say Quinion's Wonder Woman's got the most style. Cool Valkyrie interpretation. Vivid colors. High detail. Close second with Austin's Lobo though. Unified biker theme with the leather vest, chains, and cigar. Love that white flame effect too. Great job to everyone, though.

Tomorrow, December 23, 2014, will be the last day to vote.

WONDER WOMAN FOR MY VOTE HOLY SHIT. Dat Cyborg though, goddamn.

Gentle reminder: Hex Edits and Mods are banned across the entire site, as is discussion of them. If you see it, report it to Brucege or myself so we can handle it quietly, or just PM the person in question to let them know.
While we're usually pretty chill about these things in our waters, all it takes is for some other mod to come snooping around to ruin the fun.
So remember, address it all privately via PMs and whatnot. PMs aren't moderated after all. :P
 
That Wonderwoman really is stunning, however my vote goes to @brucege's Cyborg. Very creative use of stickers/equipment, and also, Teen Titans nostalgia :D

Edit: just noticed I posted this after the deadline, so I won't be offended (in fact, I probably won't even notice) if you discard my vote.
 
Thanks for the votes. Surprised really, since I threw these together so fast, just to get something in.

I had some others in the works but didn't get them finished in time; I'll fix these two (color fixes, etc) and repost in my thread, plus the others I was working on.

I have something in mind for the context theme; I'll post it here tonight.
