It is over indeed. I am still in the process of finding the appropriate and available judges. Sorry for the inconvenience. :/

Okay I have collected every entry into this contest and every WIP, including those who never finished.
Have fun - And also if the image is missing its likely attached directly to the quoted post. Hope this makes it easier to see how many we actually had working in this contest.

RED BARON - Final Entry

I had decided I would take part, one way or the other. And others have been asking as well. So at last I can show you what I thought of doing and WIPS. This can be considered my final, unless anything newer is posted and that newer posted is accepted as within the deadline.

Some history about it:

This is the RED BARON anti-personal and anti armor weapon. Developed in the mind of a mad genius suffering from sleep deprivation and too much to do.
It consist of a scope for long distance targeting, a central target laser that will coordinate with the ammunition to pin-point and accurately attack targets. It loads a magazine of 4x4 airplanes in a cylinder and can keep two ready to fire without reloading.

The planes themselves are duplicate of the famous Red Baron's airplane with some modifications, as the triplane was deemed inefficient and the extra space could be used for storing more bombs.

When the weapon is fired, the plane will be pushed off the weapon and take of with its own power. It will then be laser guided by the targeting laser to the drop-point. There it will deploy tiny high explosive bombs that explode on impact able to penetrate even heavy armor given enough bombs. Tabbing the trigger twice fire both planes in rapid order and thus creates a miniaturized carpet bombing at the drop.

Images in order, from WIP to final:

Final version:

I could likely do a better job, but given the hour I had, I am perfectly satisfied. Family and master thesis doesn't leave much room.

For an added bonus I needed a break from writing, so a little fast painting:

BronzeOregon - Final Entry

Alright.

WiP

Finished

Backstory: During the fateful wars on Earth, a dark warrior arose, although he was not evil, he consorted with it in order to destroy it. When He had defeated all of that plane's demon's, he travelled to our lands, Azeroth. When the Legion attacked the World Tree, he slew a great number of demons, but his blade was taken by a ghoul, after he was batted across the field. As he slew the last of the demons and undead amongst him, he noticed his blade missing, and has searched for it since... Little did he know that a death knight had acquired the blade, and wouldn't relinquish it easily.

Final Product [Entry]

Axe of Destruction

a.k.a. Galaxy Destroyer, The Galaxy Destroy is an lightweight two handed axe that is capable of destroying Galaxies and creating/absorbing black holes it can also create an portable black hole at its endpoint also can create a shield that returns back/deflect the projectiles that hit the shield and can manipulate the gravity within the range of it desire.

PeeKay - Final Entry

Well, finaly i made it. Hope this not violents any contest rules.

INSTRUCTIONS OF USE:
This weapon is a ultimate quantum gun, which consist from next parts:
1. Quantum Field Modulators (claws near of barrel). On each of them is one special gadget, that can generate magnetic waves and via this control the area of a quantum field
2. Quantum Beam Generator (huge disk near of claws). This part generates chaotic beam of elementary particles (quants), with the help of barrel and modulators this beam can be focused.
3. Barrel - copper cup on the end of gun used for creating great magnetic field, drag the whole modulated beam and keep it, untill u put a trigger.
4. Rotating part, Quantum Field Generator - This part is used for acceleration and regularize quants, and make a quantum field.
5. Shell - under shell is a whole digital equipment, wormholl generator (for portals), controls and energy converter.
6. Battery - it is a ammo, stronly recommended do not touch. It is an atomic energy generator.
7. Control buttons - this part allows to choose, which way should weapon be used now. Also there is an barometer and voltmeter to prevent critical pressue and voltage

So, there is wips and a final entry with three objects.

How exactly it works?

1. Before put the trigger you should activate an of four modes: Portal Red, Portal Blue, Quantum Weapon, Gravity Field.
2. When u put a trigger, energy from battery comes under shell, and depends of a mode works in different ways.
Portals: just gives energy on a wormholl generator, enables for a second gravity modulator and throws a bundle of anti-matter in a aim. Blue and Red portal depends only by one thing - magnetism was plus or minus.
Quantum Weapon - gives energy up to energy converter, where whole energy becomes a free chaotic moving quants. Each second pressue inside of energy convertor grows. When it comes to a first-stage point, quants comes inside of quantum field generator, which start spin with great speed. At second-stage quantum beam generator activates and u can use right handle for control of modulators (claws on top). There in same place is a button, for activation of magnetic field and make a bundle of quants.
When weapon is used in gravity mode once u put a trigger whole energy comes to a quantum beam generator and magnetic field modulators (barrel and disk). Magnetic field drags any quants around, and beam regulates a power (throws em back). If u want throw picked item back - just release magnetic field (beam generator will throw item): if u want drag something too fast (warning - it can become a very heavy bullet) - just use it without beam generator. Also, if it used with small modulation field (close claw position) - it can cause break of a weapon.



What this weapon can do actually? Few intresting things:
1. Open two type of wormholls (portals), which allow u pass through. They can connect any locations in the universe
2. Can collect and release a bundle of quants of light. Actually this would look like a fireball.
3. Without magnetic effect function 2 will make a beam with size from dot (instant kill), till 1 foot and low damage.
4. This gun can be used as a gravity-gun if you will try use magnetic generator without generate a quantum field.

https://sites.google.com/site/shadowraithphantasm/screen-shots/Shadowraith2.jpg

A heavy sword with curvy edged blade that act as hooks for parrying weapon from enemy's attack and disarming them. Decapitating enemies is easier with hooks too. The blood grove is decorated with green enchanted inscriptions/ornaments.

Shadowraith - the Blade of Phantasm

Lore:
Forged by the enigmatic man Phantom, the blade itself is as mysterious as it's creator. Imbued with magic, the blade and rune glow in green that of inferno. When swinged in the dark, the sword dances like a green wraith, thus the name Shadowraith. The dance mesmerized those who dare stand against the wielder, suffering them with phantasm and illusion. Strucking them in the right moment may be killing them, or hooking their weapons away and disarming them. Playing around with them before landing the final blow to end the game. Killing them in the way of Phantom.

Final Entry:

Weapon History:

An axe different from the other weapons. This axe itself was used by a legendary warrior who fought thousands of demons. He is successful on vanquishing the demons and the warrior stays just a myth but the axe itself was kept in a sacred place where no demon can reach it.

NOTE: The picture was named WiP but no it is my final entry... can't think of something to add so it is my final entry!

flavor text:

House Leo battle mages use their arcane energies to lift and wield massive steel fists. Normally these fists would weight hundreds of pounds, but the use of magic allows battle mages to lift these with little effort.
Adorned with a massive lion and engraved with holy text, the massive fists are known as "The Lion's Paws".

Marcos DAB - Final Entry

An ancient king on his deathbed paid hir proper soul to the God of Underworld in exchange for
his servants forge a legendary weapon. Once killed by that weapon the health of the victim is drained to the killer and a thousand
reincarnations his victim will be born sick.

His value just not greater than to the fear of being killed by it.

Done a bit in a hurry, I had forgotten the contest.

This is gonna stand as my final entry.. but maybe I'll add some shadows later.. :3

Evil Cat's Staff of Pain!

WIP'S

Show NewMapMaker WIP's

Carrying a shield into combat against a ferocious beast in the wilderness, it was damaged by the beast's biting. Upon defeating the foe, it was repaired & the bite marks along the edges were tidied up & sharpened into blades. 3 spikes were added to the front of the shield to add extra damage & deterrent to enemies.

Hmm lets see what i can do for 2 days
Here's the first WIP

Pic

YAY ITSA CROSSBOW!!! (if it is so bad that you can't really tell what it is )
(And yes it is a dragon skull on the head of the bow...)

Umm, i got some questions,
First, does every weapon really need a story?
Second, is the quiver near the crossbow allowed (As it may be considered another object)
Third, may i make my own story?
Because really, there is nothing linking the crossbow with ice, it's color theme will be Golden/Dark magneta/Brown/Grey
No offense, your story is good, best_player_88, but i prefer making my own things you know...

I'm surprised no one tried to make a bow or a crossbow yet. They are so awzum
Call me crossbow addict

By the way, second WiP is here with a quiver done! =)

i cancelled my previus entry, cause i agree with BD, it is too boring for such free-themed concept making an redesigned axe.

So, u'r welcome - Portal-Gravity-Tau Gun V.Alpha

It is an mix of a portal gun and gravity gun, which are not a same thing overall, but have some specific similarity.

Gravity gun needs power for work, same with tau gun, which power-generators are very strong. So, the mechanism of both these weapons are mixed, let we have the 3 in 1 thing.
Wips for today included.

Weapon's History:

"A broken and old axe that people finds no use of because of its low quality. But some people still used it to defend themselves. Even a low quality axe, a warrior wielded and used this to kill more than 1000 demons. The warrior was successful in the end. Who could've believed that this axe can still kill more than 1000 demons? Now people believed this axe to be a different kind, a sacred axe!"

Dang, Ghost's concept art needs to be turned into a Warcraft model so hardcore. I could see a schweet Orcish super-Shaman (reminiscent of Beta) with anti-gravity wolf paws, or a Tauren Sagemaster with hovering Hooves of Death, or a Trollish Reptilian Ranger with floating Raptor Claws... Or yeah, a Human.

[I3lackDeath]

PeeKay, you realize that perspective is wrong in that last one, right?

As for judges: people should be chosen who have actual knowledge of what the definition of concept art is, and who have created some themselves.

Raiding the contest archive while looking at activity, these would be fitting (ordered statistically):

• enjoy (judged Concept Art Contest #5, has done concepts herself)
• CRAZYRUSSIAN (judged Concept Art Contest #4, is a professional artist for a living)
• Nudl9 (participated in some Concept Art Contests successfully, shows what it needs to judge this category)

 

[8512590215848]

PeeKay, you realize that perspective is wrong in that last one, right?

surely. Cause of that i was bored of it and made the last one (look wips)

Ah, okay.

dude, my entries are invisible

add these:

I know You had them directly attached - I wrote it - But perfect that you got them there - I have updated the post and added them.

 

[morbent]

urgh... do I have to include a story about my Weapon?

 

[Pheonix]

So. When is the deadline. And do you want a background for the weapon in question?

 

[I3lackDeath]

So. When is the deadline. And do you want a background for the weapon in question?

Deadline was the 6th of May. Feel free to post your entry, though.
It's good practice nonetheless.

Background's up to your liking and whether your weapon requires interaction with one. Generally though: no.

 

[8512590215848]

maybe open a poll?

 

[RED BARON]

Just to keep it alive I am guessing we're just waiting for something?

 

[morbent]

Yes, we're waiting for judges

 

[8512590215848]

And who are these celebrities?

 

[morbent]

There are none yet.

 

[I3lackDeath]

When I raided the contest archives for creating the library, I came by several contests that were decided by polls alone
(this applied mostly to those that were hosted as the first contests of their kind).
If there's a lack of judges (and for mini-contests in general), this could be a more comfortable way to do things.

 

[morbent]

Hmm. I agree. :\ We could do it this way, if Pharaoh_ agrees to it, of course.

 

[8512590215848]

Hmm. I agree. :\ We could do it this way, if Pharaoh_ agrees to it, of course.

generally we have to make a poll and let _Pharaoh make a judge review of top 5 winners.

 

[morbent]

Oh. Well.. ok. Lets do it.

 

[RED BARON]

Oh. Well.. ok. Lets do it.

Well no matter what well have to wait for official reaction before doing anything.

 

[I3lackDeath]

In the meantime, you could try to evaluate each other's entries.
That could offer some great insight aswell.

Just a thought. :B

 

[KaplanHorus]

should i still join ? if i can, write me

 

[RED BARON]

should i still join ? if i can, write me

might be able to join before the poll gets up, though

you'd have a couple of months

Lol, not meanting to hurt the user by saying it ended months ago but it did :b

It wasn't necessarily hurtful. Just matter-of-fact. I was just laughing because it was so terse and, sadly, indicative of the state of the contest (read: eternal limbo) that the topic's still open to have this kind of discussion.

We will be waiting for enjoy to contribute in the judging. She expects to handle everything probably mid-August or earlier.
