Character Design Contest (ROUND 2 WINNERS ARE DETERMINED!)

Archive: 486 posts


That looks great Cog. You've raised the bar right from the off. Cheers for that lol.

I just finished my entry apart from some scenery additions but I published it in the meantime anyway.

It's called 'Rusty the Reluctant Roving Postbot'.

Set in a future sterile world where you no longer have to take your post to the postbox because the 'Postbots' come to you. Rusty yearns for the 'Good Old Days' and rebels against the system that made him a Postbot when all he wanted from life was to be a second-hand car sales bot. Visit him in his not so utopian world and see him throwing a paddy ( beware though as that's not all he's throwing ).

Nearly 3 am now so i'm off to bed. I'll put some pictures up here later.


HA!! I will have to check this one out in a bit.

It's a character so no not exactly, but I would think that some animation would be a good idea. Check out the last round and that might help as well as some of the entires so far for this round.2009-08-04 05:45:00

Ok, levels up!

If you sticker the left eye with the star sticker then you will get the key for the copyable level at the scoreboard. Also, go in his mouth for a photo shoot! Post your pictures of your dressed up Barbust!

Yep, just saw it and he looks really funny.
The scenery is what really completes it and makes him a true character!!
The little story is great as well.

It does not matter, you can enter any time you want.

Well I don't run this contest so it's up to crazymario but as far as I'm concerned I would think you can enter as few or as many rounds as you like.
The more people the merrier I would say.

So get creating and and I look forward to seeing what you make.

Bravo Joey! Simply wonderful!!

I am so happy for you! You are an amazingly talented young creator that I have grown very fond of, especially after last nights sneek peek. Your skills at your age surpass what others could ever dream at any age. I hope you have shared him with your parents, because they have so much to be proud of!!

I can't wait to have another look in person and thank you for sharing him with us!!

God, can't someone get any sleep around here??? xD

Anyways, yes, you CAN enter at any time, even if you weren't in the last round.

And it doesn't matter if your character animates or not. However, it's usually a good idea to give your character some type of personality.


Now to start posting the entries in the first post... (EDIT: Done)

Just took a look at Rob-T. This guy has probably some of the best facial animations I've seen so far! Plus the arms and feet are nicely animated as well. Really reminds me of jwwphotos' Bad News Billy. I did manage to break the poor guy's right claw though. Yanked the switch and CRACK! It vanished. Also broke the switch as well. But other than that, this was excellent! You've really stepped up the bar early, Joey!2009-08-05 04:33:00

Alright, just published my first entry for the second round entitled "Rob the Trophy Hunter". After seeing some other entries, i don't think its going to win, but i had fun making it

During the apocolyptic trophy wars, Rob was originally created as a soldier, but escaped into the wilderness. He waits for an end, not realizing that he is the only survivor.

Wow! Some brilliant entries so far.

I have seen Rusty in person mrvista and he's fantastic! He didn't give me too much trouble, apart from hitting me on the back of the head with 65,000 envelopes!! Great scenery!!!
Also paid a visit to Barburst. He is an amazing character, good work Cog.
Joey, I think Rob-T is absolutely brilliant. I love the animation, it is so well done and his expressions are fabulous. Very good work indeed!

Going to take a look at Rob the trophy hunter soon too Burnvictim, looking forward to it.

I can't find yours Shadowcrazy but I will keep looking.

Trying my best with this one Burnvictim, not an easy task for someone who runs a mile from anything remotely resembling new fangled gadgetry!!

Besides, it takes me about 5 hours to cut a simple shape!! Do I like it, don't I like it. Maybe thats a bit big, maybe it would look better in this material. Move it 2 centimetres left, move it back 3 right. Up a bit, down a bit. AAAARGH!!!! I do my own head in!.

Have your parts arrived yet jww?........I could do with some hilarity!!!

Can each robot have a similar storyline? like i want mine to involve something that was on the Front page quite recently. but with different endings Yaknow? is that allowed? whats this about the shopkeeper rule?2009-08-07 22:08:00

Crazymario will have to tell you about the shopkeeper rule... personally i think its being ignored

As to the storyline, i'm sure you can do what you want, but ultimately it will be about the character design (it is teh character design contest )

Each character will be judged based on CREATIVITY, so I wouldn't steal ideas from others, unless you can make it really well. (and yes, I know what you're talking about, I'm just saying this in general)


And to clear up on the shopkeeper rule, in the end I just got rid of it. It was a rule that limited the physical size of each character...but I can always shrink it

I'm not sure how copying works, but just to be safe, the only DLC you can use are:
- MGS Level Pack
- Monsters Level Pack
- Create Pack 1

I have more than that, but I want to keep it simple.

PavaRobby the Robot
has a job to be done,
but opera'atic aspiration
keeps him singing for fun.

His Grandfather Robby
might not have been proud,
but that doesn't stop him
from singing out loud.

He's currently hazy
drawing too many amps
from trying to hit
that high c - clamp.

Check him out in game.. he really sings and moves around. ..though he will run over you if you're not careful. LOL!!

Oops , I think I may have inadvertently broken the rules crazymario. I'm not sure but I think I used a 'Burgerman' sticker for Rusty's mouth and I just noticed that's not on your allowed DLC. Is that a problem?

Me and mrsvista are just off to check out the other entries right now. They all sound awesome and Dolly looks amazing Icey.

EDIT : We made the mistake of starting with Icey's Dolly and mrsvista has just completed her fourth spin cycle. The whole level was just awesomely designed. I've told you before to stop doing that, you aren't giving the rest of us a chance. mrsvista's words upon finishing the level were "absolutely bloody brilliant". Never mind Dolly ,everything in the level is amazing. The entrance being a 'sackflap' is marvellous and the washing on the line was very funny. I didn't mind seeing your bra and knickers but I wasn't so keen on seeing Rhy's stripey vest and pants LOL. I can only apologise for such language and apologise to the other entries. I promise we will get round to them soon.

Mmm , Don't get that Drakon. We found a level just called Omega project but could only see 2 feet with 3 brains on each. MrsVista killed all 6 brains but nothing happened and we couldn't get to the scoreboard.

jww- i love the use of sound on pavarobby! Him singing his synthesized scales was a very cool idea.

drakon- it is rather hard to see the full omega project, and using the feet to propel yourself upward was rather difficult for me as well. The scoreboard didn't open once i killed omega D:

Icey, checked out Dolly, and i have to say you did a fantastic job on not only Dolly, but the scenery as well. all very true to life, now if you'll excuse me, i need to run a few more sackpeople through the wash...

You will be as clean as a whistle when Dolly has finished with you!!!

Hey Icey.. Loved that Dolly!! Too funny and I have never been cleaner. I got a bit gritty and dirty while working on PavaRobby!!

Thanks! ..what is kinda funny is how I did the sound as it isn't a jukebox like how folks "normally" would do it. ...I never do anything normal.

If you worried about looks, then don't! Judging is based on "Creativity", so as long as your character is original and has a cool back-story, you'll do fine!

Really, you should just be having fun!

Don't worry about winning - it's really about challenging yourself to try something you haven't done before or thinking of a cool new idea that can help spark creativity and help get over creator's block. It's a cool exercise for playing with materials and story lines.

Besides if you don't win you have an awesome new character to build a new level around

Winning is nice but the process is more valuable I think.

I would 3rd that! I seriously don't care if I win or not. It wasn't why I entered. I have always been more into scenery, machines, buildings and other stuff and though this would be fun to take a crack at something to see what kinds of characters I might come up with if given a challenge. The sharing of these with all the other entrants as well as seeing what crazy things they come up with has been some of the most fun ever on this forum.

Guys you're right, but I have so few spare time to work with LBP that when I start to do something, I have to be sure that I do something worthy, and that's the reason why I haven't released anything yet.
I don't want to be one of the top creator but I want to put out something that is not trash and people can enjoy.

Jot down your ideas while your forbidden to use your controller. It will save time when you get them back. You'll have your ideas all sketched out and all you need to do is build them... can't for the contest which sucks but you can still make stuff for yourself. 2009-08-11 19:23:00

I?m with Zwollie. There?s definitely something sinister about Dolly. She killed me! I had to replay the level to ace it! *hangs head in shame*

My guess is she?s beginning to malfunction and has plans for world domination...

In all seriousness, though, fantastic detail in the kitchen. Loved the cat flap and the undies!

I can only appologise on Dolly's behalf shropshirelass, I don't know what came over her! It's probably something to do with Zwollie, she wouldn't hurt a fly normally.

I'm still working on the setting for my robot. She's done but needs a better place to hang out. Hopefully I'll get to work on it tonight a bit. Sort of been busy running around LBP and real life doing other stuff.

Cycle, cycle? Are we talking about Dolly here? A little birdie tells me she's been killing people! I'm going to have to go in there and sort her out. Maybe her Application programme is malfuctioning or her Actuator needs re-conditioning again. I'll take a very large spanner, I can always turn her into a piece of scrap metal if all else fails. I may have to issue a public health warning, or I could just lock the level!!!!!

Perhaps, its that you got your tail in the air wavin' it all about advertising you're open for buisness if you catch my drift... gettin' evil stares- like you don't care, poisoning the air with your pheromones...

Something both you and that Zwollie are guilty of I'm afraid...

Boy have I had one heckuvatime trying to get the Gnome-o-matic 2000 from production line to working concept...

Little clue for you all... Never build a snail robot expressly designed for the elimination of garden gnomes out of the Valentines' lolly-pop... Pulled an all-nighter today and literally have nothing to show for it except a nagging skullache. The lollipop exists betwixt layers... everytime I add to it everything falls to the ground... and I mean everything... In the construction of this I have experienced a weird glitch where the snail actually occupied no layer but was still visible... Editable, yet nothing from the existing 7 layers could touch it... In my sleepless stupor I have no idea how I escaped this insane cycle of non-existence/fall apart. I have absolutely no idea why I havent just used any other normal material and simply photo'd the lolly sticker onto it... This has been the stupidiest challenge of my lbp life... Oh and I mean stupid! So much so that I have now temporarily shelved my Ghostbuster level in an attempt to bring this thing to life.

Gravel - I think you are on LBP even more than I am - you are always on! Sorry to hear about the pseudo-transendental state of being yet not being. I'd freak out too if I found that on my level. I've had the one where it's visible but un-grabable and un-editable though. Concept for the robot sounds awesome though!

Been working on my robot off and on for a little while. I came back here to check out the competition, and now I'm not so sure! There are some great robots out there... I am almost finished, though.2009-08-18 04:46:00

id say enter...i entered my pixelated bots but i think they are no match for icemaidens machine and if donkey show enters then i know i lost lol but hey ill say it like this

even if you lose here...someone out there might like your design and want to use it on their level...since the whole point of this contest is to have our entry in a level being made then youd win either way is someone recognizes your talent and wants to see what else you can do

Step back from the camera so the nice people can get a look at you

Well, that's a bit better.


The Backstory: This is ShortZ. She has been sent on a mission into deep space and what with deep space being, well, deep, she's discovered that there isn't much to do out here alone. To help stop the boredem she's taken to going down the the ship's generators and "plugging in" to get her "power fix". It's all harmless really as long as she isn't near any planets, humans, other robots, small children, mammals in general.... on second thought maybe she should just stay out in deep space?

With all the awesome rusty bots around I went for something ultra modern and shiny... ohhh - I like shiny!

I hope you like her as much as I did making her. You really MUST visit her in game to get the full effect. By the way, is it wrong that I like throwing the power switch? Anyone? Anyone? I guess I'm ok.

Also - if you want to "dress her up" feel free there are a few pics of what those who got sneak peeks did to her in the level. Send me a photo and if it's cool I'll put it in the level gallery.

Well, here's my entry. All the pics should be in attachments (I'm doing this straight from my PS3). His name is Gort, mainly because I couldn't think of anything else at the moment.
I went with a 1950's theme for my robot, because like the 80's for rock'n'roll, the 50's were when (movie) robots were perfected. Backstory: Gort used to be the star of a hit show in the 50's, called "Everyone Loves Gort". But when it got cancelled, nobody seemed to care about him anymore. Now, though, he has found new work in LBP, although he is a little frazzled from years of hard luck and loneliness.
Level name: That crazy Gort!
Entry name: Gort
I hope you all like him!

Spent some quality time with some more awesome robots this evening and I must say I was extremely impressed!!

Flame, I think Major Destructo is brilliant and so is Gort, well done iiiijujube.
KoRn, I just couldn't stop jiggying with Jiggy Jason, he rocks!!
ShortZ is absolutely stunning Morgana. A superb creation and very, very beautiful.

This is a brilliant competition crazymario.

jww- i love the use of sound on pavarobby! Him singing his synthesized scales was a very cool idea.

drakon- it is rather hard to see the full omega project, and using the feet to propel yourself upward was rather difficult for me as well. The scoreboard didn't open once i killed omega D:


Oh. You're supposed to jump on his feet, and when they raise, you go up, and inside it.

I usually try to keep a week between rounds.
Each round starts on Saturday, and goes on for exactly three weeks until the end of Friday.

Therefore, the next round should start on the 29th.

I officially hate football practice.

It ate away most of my summer, I just did H-E-Doublehockeysticks Week, and it kept me so occupied that I never got the time to work on my robot. Worst of all, my legs cramp up everytime I stand up for a little bit. I still feel bummed out that I wasn't able to work on my entry.

Ah well, there's always next round...

To the winners, make your levels copyable for a few days. (I'll tell when you can change it back)
To the judges, if you want to quit your job then tell me! (Sorry, Silverleon! )

And congratulations to everyone who entered! They were all wonderful entries!

The next round will be in a new thread, which I'll make sometime later this week. I'm too lazy right now.
For now, congratulate all of the winners, then let this thread die.
