Hosting the first ever, bombhead concept competition. I'm honestly sick and tired of seeing a rather lax number of bombheads, where is the shadow, kingly, evil, and slime bombheads? Where is the explosive head gear of wonder and awe which causes one to turn heads and invoke emotions of fear and wonder. Well, unless OOO plans to release anything it's down to you to put your creative mind and artistic talents to the test creating the latest in bombhead fashion. Make them wacky, zany, awesome, or unique. Whatever the case, I want to see NEW bombheads.
- Entrants will be judged on artistic execution and overall concept.
- Applicants may not use recycled or already produced work.
- The grand winner will receive a prize of 2k ce.
- Participants may enter as many concepted bombheads as they like.
- The deadline for this competition is on September the 9th (11:59 pm. cst)
Want a shot at winning some ce but don't have artistic talent?
Then today is your lucky day, spread the word about this competition to your more artistically inclined friends and family. If they mark you as their refferal and win the grand-prize, you nab yourself a cool 500 ce. Not too bad for talking to people about happenings on the forums.

Thudner Bombhead (or Heavy)
"A bombhead forged with a hammer possessing the force of the thunders themselves. It is meant to give its wearer a menacing and powerful look"
Not sure about aquiring. 300 Krogmo coins? Maybe included in a "Thunder" promo (not with the box model.. -.- ) but that would need other items too. I'unno. Or 120 RT tokens? :o

I took a more out-of-the-box approach to a bombhead on this one, going out of bounds and making it look different.
Submission 2
Knight Name:
Tersakoff
Describe how your drawing was created (the medium):
Paint Tool SAI, digitally. Kept it concept-arty-sketchy.
The name/description of the completed bombhead(s):
Vanaduke Bombhead
"A bombhead with Lord Vanaduke's mask masterfully attached to it trough unknown means. Some knights say they can even feel the Duke's grim glance when looking into the eyes of the mask. It's hot to the touch"
Would cost 120 Almirian Seals. Colors are picked from Almirian Crusader Armor. Grey around the mask is from the arm, white from the garb, and volcanic reds from the pants. Everything yellow is personal color. Fuse has a trail.
