Garnoo I LOVE the wings!

 

Acelon, I will try another host that will allow BMP.

 

EDIT

 

Here's the BMP ones now.

I can't see the capes how they are supposed to be, because when I save them, it loses color information when I change it to 256 color. The only one that worked properly was smooms's because he saved it as a .png I think.

 

Oops, it resaved mine as a .jpg too, I guess. Sorry about that, I'll do some more work on it, and upload it as PNG or BMP tomorrow.

 

Merry Christmas, by the way! :omg:

I don't really think asking for whether you should make something or not really fits the idea of the contest :P

 

You just submit your work, and I'll choose the best for me in the end.

Ok, here's the first one I did, as a BMP:

And here's one with the original dragon color:

Once again, I still have all layers saved seperately, so I can do the dragon in any color, and put it on any background.

 

Edit:

Here's the Gold/Black one, Ace:

Click on it for a link to the .BMP version. :w00t:

 

Edit again: Does that look gold? Now that I look at it, it seems muddy brown. lol

Quick question Ace

 

do you want the cape to work with the universal hood ?, because due to how the hood works (copying the mesh from the cape) the design on the custom capes is mirrored onto the hood and looks messy... if you want it to work with the hood that is fine just need to place the design in the right place...

 

( and for those without a hood, it looks like the hood mirrors about the bottom 3rd of the cape, but without trying it im not sure )

I want to make one myself too but I got a question.

Did you guys all design these dragons yourself or copied it somewhere? Cause all the nice little dragons I find are copyrighted :D

 

Cheers

Easiest way to avoid copyright is goto google.com and search for "Free Dragon Clip Art" or whatever you prefer. Google is your friend for images, buddy!

Since I'm getting a lot of choices.. I feel like there should be more than one winner... so I'm gonna have a few categories to win under.

 

Best looking design on a cape (but distorted ingame :omg:)

 

Most creative design

 

Third best overall

 

Second best overall

 

First best overall

 

 

First best overall will win the dragon item, and will obviously be the one used ingame.

Errm... I've been looking at the capes and trying them on just for fun (by switching my meshes) and some of you guys really should try them on ingame, mainly because of these two reasons

 

1. you're not saving them as 256 color .bmp so they come out completely distorted looking nothing like what you made

 

2. Be aware a good third of the top of the cape is stretched out when worn in game, this can make your cape look kinda bad.

 

Just switch the meshes around and try it on ingame so you can see how it looks. :omg:

 

-edit-

I just checked mine and I realized photobucket is automatically changing them to .jpg and killing the 256 color save.... That might be why some of them don't work as well.

Hey guys, keep in mind that the art you make for these capes should be original. It's not right to steal art that isn't free for use..so if you do take it from the net try to get it from a free clipart site or something. Or better yet, make it yourself :)
