Here are the current themes.Mugen Guitar Hero!We all know that deep down, EVERYONE wants to be a rock star. Why not grant your favorite Mugen character the chance to get glammed up, and rock out!IMPROVE a character´s ANIMATIONIn other words, try to make any of a certain character´s animations more fluid.In my opinion the animations most characters could use more fluidity in, are the knock out animations or fly away(?) animations when a character gets hit so hard, he gets knocked away, but just an example, just choose any animation of a character and make it more fluid.Make a useful sprite or animation for an existing character.It can be a new move, win-pose, intro, midnight bliss, Athena/Arremer transformation.Anything that can actually be put to good use.I'm personally fond of making cvs2 sprites for sfz characters like run, dodge, roll, dash...etc.You could make required sprites for kof grapplers or even MK fatality sprites like decapitations.There's so many things you could do.....Q-Bee stings, Blanka electric attacks.I could go on and on.NOTE: if you choose this, please explain how you would split it into different kind of entries. If we let people go wild with them it may be problematic during the voting phase.I can't fight anymore!What would your character look like if they were injured? Think Zangief in a wheelchair or Kyo on crutches. Or how about Chun-Li with a bandaged arm?Stealing stance from another fighter !Terry with Geese stanceRyu with Sagat stance...challenge animated onlyPolls end on the 10th.
since it looks liike the next contest might be animated, is suggest to increaase the deadline to nearly two months, because animation takes more time and haf baked animations won't be as useful.
Even though I don't really do spriting THAT much right now, I vote for Making more useful sprites. Sounds like a neat idea really (and I might even give it a try...if time allows for it).As for splitting it into different entries? Hm....how about this?1) Posing sprites (KO animations, win-pose, intro pose, stand pose, etc.)2) Movement sprites (attacking, blocking, walking, etc.)3) Special states sprites (Midnight Bliss, Electrocuted, Burned, etc).I think that'd work out, but that's up to you. If I do this, I might go with MB, just b/c that's what I've been working on anyways....<_<

It won't stop me from making another contest in April though.Contest starts tomorrow. Start drawing people. And be original, don't turn this contest into a Midnight Bliss one.
