Here are links to the winners of our previous contests:

Contest #1 - Steampunk
Contest #2 - Golden age Heroes
Contest #3 – Humans dressed as animals
Contest #4 – Halloween/Bloodmoon
Contest #5 – Mythology
Contest #6 – Humor
Contest #7 – Mad Science
Contest #8 – The Holiday Season
Contest #9 – Powersets
Contest #10 – Heroes around the Globe
Contest #11 – Heroes from America

The theme for our next contest is ....

”States of the Union!”
This contest theme centers around creating heroes from specific states in USA. For example earlier I created the Kansas Kid. It can use whatever tools you want but please make sure to give the toons name and what state they represent.

PROTIP: Take ingame screen shots since the Rate My Champion (RMC) pics never show how good the toons really look. Also, you can share the costume screenshot file too.

Rules:
1. Make a toon that follows the theme or post one that you already have.
2. Submit screenshots or saved costume files in this thread before the end of the contest. Please no RMC pics. They distort toons and are hard to judge.
3. My decision is final – save the drama for the dev comments, please.
4. Have fun!

Prize:
None – I have almost all of the Unity Action Figures if the winner needs/wants one.

This contest will close on Friday, March 12th. I will post the winners that night.

Any donations received will be given as prizes. Please let me know if you have something to donate.

Good Luck!

As I started doing in the past, I wanted to make a special mention to the costumes I thought were well done and deserved a second look:

Golden Warrior
The Rocker
Entire Kansas Set
Bobby Bayou
Tornado Allie – Best toon name EVAR!
Captain Hope – Best use of the anchor logo

Now for the winners in reverse order: -

3. Super Charge by Mr. Solaris – I totally love the theme for this toon. It does a great job of using items like the armor shirt and pants with the chargers logo style electric bolts to really make you see the theme. Very nice job, Mr. Solaris/SolarApex.

2. Lava by RandomChance42 – Really well done toon that uses a lot of different items to bring home the lava-Hawaiian style. Got the fire flight, rock skin, skirt with flames and tribal belt. The only thing that would make this even better would be a nice grass skirt and coconut bra. Good job, RandomChance!

And first place goes to a TIE!

But they are both made by the same person….

1. Kid SoBe and The Bison by Barbaric – I liked both of these toons so much I couldn’t decide between the two. Both used simple stylistic looks to achieve their results. When I looked at these toons I could see some one easily RP’ing them or having them be NPCs in the game. Heck they’d be waaay cooler then those crazy Rocket Hawks Anyway, great job Barbaric. I have almost all (if not all) the unity AFs that I can give you. Just let me know which ones you do not already have and I will send them to you.

I'd say this is a hard one. I was thinking making all 51 heroes, but... well, we see :D
So. I present, Hawaii. Heroes name? ...Magnum :p (We need more moustaches, bigger ones!)

I present to you Demon Ming..
Yao need not call his barrister on this as he's short and red.

So the Gist is the Fellow was Ming the Conqueror in Open Beta and died fighting The Demon Kita whats his name in CN..

As a Dark ally of Lemon Lass; Ming.. chased down Grond and was feeling too proud for a cheap door prize and a few resources.. so the seed of corruption took him from the crypt.
Good Ming [sort of] http://images.yuku.com/image/pjpeg/7...0dda00b4f.pjpg

First off I would just like to say thank you for allowing your fellow Champions to express themselves through these contests. I also love the way you give honorable mentions to those costumes you throught were creative, but werent quite top 3 material. However, I would like to state that I was hurt that my entry wasnt even considered as a contender for "Heroes from America". According to the deadline for the contest, I was still able to qualify to be entered. I dont mind winning and gaining nothing, or losing for that matter, but it is very hurtful for your efforts to be completely Ignored. Thank you for your time.

OK I will give this a shot.

This is the Golden Warrior Eureka, she is from California.

She was inspired by the state seal (being a representation of Minerva) and state motto (the name of course).

Here is a closeup.

And here is a shot from the back

Unfortunately they don't have spears or shields, yet.

Anyway, please don't be discouraged. I appreaciate everyone's entries and would like to see you contribute again.
