[FredH]

While we wait for the results for mini#2, what do you think would be a nice challenge for the next mini challenge?

Looking forward to hearing your ideas:thumb:

[ThatDon]

[Japhir]

+ Steampunk vehicles
+ Space ships (capital or fighters)

*Final Fantasy Enemies - I still like this idea :p We can do small mini enemies not necessarily big bosses.

*An environment (fantasy house, school, mansion or something)

*Gory enemies - since we did cute ones why not the opposite?

[Marcus Dublin]

I'm digging the Gory enemies idea, or creepy monsters!

Another idea I have is "Super Gun", you are in charge of prototyping the next generation gun and your given carte blanche to do whatever you want. The gun can belong to any time period, or style: futuristic, fantasy, stylized, present day, alien, you name it! The weapon will be given a name and manufacture as well!:)

super Guns all the way:thumb: :thumb:

[ThatDon]

In spirit of the main naruto comp we should do chibi naruto characters!

[Eclipse]

I'm really digging the Final Fantasy monsters myself. With the recent FF 3d remakes for the DS it would be fun to see what members of the board could come up with.

The Super Guns one would also be a lot of fun, lots of room for creativity there.

And I can't resist a chibi character, not to mention a naruto one, haha. That would be an awesome idea as well.

I can't think of anything really except an old 2d character turned into 3d, would be fun, kinda in the spirit of new super mario brothers, or something like that. A remade version for a ds remake or sequel kinda thing.

[newman3d]

just some ideas...
Trees!
Vending machines!
Transformers <- in robot mode and vehicle but no transformation.
Gijoe Charcter Redux
Mini - Wrestlers
Stikfas

[Japhir]

how about zelda monsters? they are always funny creatures and with DS specs it would be interesting to do that.

[kipiripi]

Yeah mini wrestlers good idea..
-Bugs
-Aliens
-Caveman in the future

[FredH]

The chibi naruto characters sounds like a lot of fun, but then like newmann3d suggested, it could be cool to do a chibi G.I.Joe competition too:p

The next mini comp will probably start sometime next week (probably the end).

[indian_boy]

how about just 'famous character-chibi'. take any of ur favourite, popular characters, and make em chibi.

is it just me, or has the word chibi been mentioned too many times in this thread?

[Plat Sajack]

I like all of the chibi/mini remake ideas. I can't wait!

[Chasarsis]

How about a Devious Devices contest. You don't really know what they're for (or do you?!) but they're obviously made to make mischief. And it has to be something held, or thrown, and it can't be like a robot or anything.

[Inpw]

I'm like Big Gun theme.

[newman3d]

CHIBI _JOE! Growing is half the battle!

[Japhir]

whatever chibi character sounds nice, maybe combine it into "tiny chibi wrestlers". would be very very cool!

[TryForce]

Chibi Nintendo ....

[keo]

I'd definitely like to see a BFG competition, maybe even a 3-pack: grenade launcher, assault rifle and sidearm.

imo, chibi-whatever is a little too similar to the cute monster comp we just finished.

[newman3d]

Who says Chibis have to be cute?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chibi

[indian_boy]

chibi literally means 'shorty' in japanese. so it doesn't mean 'cute shorty' or anything. and when translated into art [manga], it just has certain properties which make even the nastiest of things cute to look at.

[kessler]

AWESOME suggestions Newman3D! I like the Chiba G.I.JOE because there are so many Joes to choose from that are COOL!!.... ROAD PIG FOR THE WIN!!!

[Gavin]

I agree with kessler, Chiba G.I. Joe would be cool.

[newman3d]

I changed my mind. I want to model chiba Akuma becuase he hasn't been done before.

[Sorenson]

Chibi G.I.Joe all the way!
