Design-a-Keyblade

[Crazyman]

Why dont we make a Design-a-Keyblade competition?
Just create your own Keyblade, Could be drawn, done by computer, painted, chalk (lol).. Whatever, Just make one!
Merge already available Keyblades or design your own!?
And then we could have like judges and stuff and make a due date when the competition is then stopped and judged on finalists and stuff.
Dunno just an idea...
Comment if anyone thinks its good enough to go through with

[Xiacrel]

I think this would be a good idea. But it would need to be fair to people who aren't that artistic that wanted to enter. Going by design rather than artistic skill.

[Kairi]

This sounds like a nice idea. But I don't have a scanner. . . So I'll have to do mine on paint. When do you want it for?

[Roxas]

I'll try n design 1 lol but on paint it will turn out a bit crap but het who cares lol

[zamborg]

can i be a judge? if not i will compete

[Unkown-Aelix]

this sounds cool, i want to see what people come up with. Man i need a scanner. Maybe i can "borrow" my friend's scanner.....he he he.......meh. Ive already designed some but i forgot where i put the sketches. meh.

[Crazyman]

Well you guys seem to be pretty interested, but we will still need more people for the competition to work.

If you dont have a scanner mabye digital camera??

[Unkown-Aelix]

nope, no digital camera nor cell phone with picture taking ability. Once my dad gets home (hopefully soon) ill ask him where the disk is that has the scanning stuff on it that needs to be installed.


meh. i want a new cell phone, but this is a good idea. I'm also a member of the bleach portal forums, do you want me to advertise on that? they have several thousand posts a day so it would draw some attention, i hope.

[Crazyman]

Yea man go ahead, the more the better the competition will be :D

[Cloud Blade]

Took me a week to make this lol ... Should I show it now or later?

[Crazyman]

Nah just wait till everyone is ready to do the competition and when I set up the rules and what not

[Crazyman]

Anyone wanna judge im looking for two more people??
This means your not allowed to compete unfortunately

[Riku]

Perfect! I'm useless at drawing or graphics. I'll be happy to judge :)

[Riku-Sora]

Perfect! I'm useless at drawing or graphics. I'll be happy to judge :)

I am in the same shape. I can help judge too.

[Crazyman]

Guess we got our 3 judges, :D now all we need is to sort out rules,scoring and competitors

[Snags]

I'd totally enter this.

[Crazyman]

Design-a-Keyblade Competition

First off, thanks to all competitors for participating in this competition for supreme drawing skills and originality in creating a Keyblade :D


Okay rules are:
1. Keyblades MUST be done either on the computer or hand drawn. You cannot enter a Keyblade that has already been made. (But you are allowed to mix and match Keyblades to form a new one if you want)

2. Doesn’t matter how many Keyblades you enter

3. Any problems or questions contact one of the judges by PM

Judges are: Me (Crazyman), Riku-Sora and Riku

Judging will score on different areas out of 10. 10 being the highest
These areas will be:
Originality:
Quality:
Colour:
Sleekness:

We do this so the ones who feel less artistic than others are still given a fair shot.

All entries must be handed in by the 25th of Jan
Entries can be posted in the thread, then judged on the 25th

[Riku-Sora]

Good you are giving them this much time. Also gives us a chance to do other things as well.

[Unkown-Aelix]

alright! taht gives me enough time to steal, err, borrow one of my friend's scanners! you see, the scanner on my printer is from 1998. Apartenly computer stuff from the 90s is good enough, arg.

Hopefully ill get a new cell phone for x-mas (one that can take pics) and then ill have some badly pixealted pics of my drawings. arg i need a scanner.

[angelofdarkeness]

I'm definitely entering as long as I can get hold of a scanner.

[Crazyman]

Thats all good Im gonna create one, but its not gonna be judged, I just wanna do one for fun

[JET73L]

How do I upload an image from my computer? The only image tab I can find says it has to be from a URL.

[Crazyman]

Sweeet the more the better the competetion :D Muahahaha

[Riku]

How do I upload an image from my computer? The only image tab I can find says it has to be from a URL.

I use ImageShack. You can upload it there and then use the URL it gives you.

[JET73L]

Thanks, but Crazyman already sent a PM.

[Unkown-Aelix]

yaaaay found a scanner!! :D la de da de da!

To save bandwidth heres da url....
http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p194/Aelix-_-/Drawings/EmptynessInside.jpg


meh ma.
Its called, if you cant read "The Emptyness Inside"

I think the new enimes will be called The Emptyness and that's their keyblade.
w000t first entry!

J N C are my intials so you wont steal this.

[Sora]

Nice one, Aelix! :D

I shall be entering one as well, IF I get the time to create one ;)

[Unkown-Aelix]

[Sora]

[Unkown-Aelix]

Sora's on more than vodka to get in mermaid gear and sing......

[Berry187]

I like mermaids XD

Thinggy Keyblade (http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r310/Berry187-/DarkestHeartKeyblade.jpg)

[Riku-Sora]

[Crazyman]

Just a notice guys..

So start designing and posting us your finished keyblade!!!
We need more entries for this to work!!!
Read rules if you havent before

[Khaos]

Hmm. Ill see what I can come up with :)

Valla:

http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/6981/chaotic2copybz1.png

Another Edit o.O http://img244.imageshack.us/img244/2818/chaoticnontextedcopyzw1.png Keyblade w/o Texture I added in from Photoshop. Without the glow to, iirc.

Im thinking ill make a light version to...*Goes off to make a Light Version*

This is what ive started with:
http://img154.imageshack.us/img154/4168/ordercopypg5.png
Im thinking of what Key chain to make for it, and also whether it really needs a key part...Because the wings could work as it.

Not the best as of yet. Im also working on the Chaos one more...

[Unkown-Aelix]

ooo got some competition!! Well ive been working on some new ones, should be up next time i "borrow" the scanner...

[Minh]

Those blades are nice, I'm not an artist but I think I can try to come up with one and draw it and enter in. :D

[Khaos]

Just did some tweeking on the Order Keyblade, looks alot better:

http://img50.imageshack.us/img50/1881/orderfinaleh7.png

No doubt ill find some way to improve it. And to fix the Chaos Blade, looks kind of bad with the 3D ness imo.

[Aquila]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Khaos will win!! Those are AWESOME. Eh. I only just saw this thread. I will muchly create one. 25th, eh? Day before I head off to Parachute (this NZ music festival thingy) uh huh.

Valla... that sounds so familiar. Hm. I think I once created an RP charrie with a sword named Valla O.o

But yeah. Those honestly look amazing. Are you like a graphic designer by career or something??

[Khaos]

I just enjoy making graphical things. Its always been in my nature. Imaginative and all that :)

Edit: Just mucking around and trying some things:

http://img490.imageshack.us/img490/4388/diamonddustcopyea7.png

Revised Chaotic Blade:

http://img225.imageshack.us/img225/6624/chaoticnontextedcopyll6.png

I think I need to make it a bit different in colour in more various places though...Which is why Ill probably stick with the Order Keyblade for the Comp :)

[Riku]

16 days to go people! Keep up the good work :) These are looking great!

[Unkown-Aelix]

just me, Khaos, and Berry187. Dang man Khaos your getting good with whatever program you got. well, i still mine mine, good old pencil! (and a blue colored one)



WHAPONZA!!!

[Khaos]

http://img118.imageshack.us/img118/204/hellfirecopyvi1.png

Im thinking of a name, I swear.

[Unkown-Aelix]

NYAAAA I CAME OUT WITH SOME MORE!!!! HA HA!

http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p194/Aelix-_-/blades.jpg

1)Mid-Morning (Kingdom Key and Riku's Way to the Dawn)

2)Belief in Faith (nyaaa)

3)Linear Warp (Warhammer 40k reference)

4) Void Oath (Oath Keeper and Oblivion mixed)

[Riku]

Linear Warp looks like it could hurt to wield it lol. But practicality isn't going to be judged ;)

Very good work :)

[JET73L]

http://img181.imageshack.us/img181/673/roadtooblivionpl0.png
Road to Oblivion.

Story: Riku is once again evil, only this time "killed" Sora and took the keyblade in it's Oblivion form. It warped thanks to his evilness, and now its default form is this.

Combination of Oblivion and Road to Dawn (and the keychain is a black heart with a skull face)

Stupid scanner program. Wouldn't work properly. Had to spend 2 weeks getting around it.

Edit:
http://img154.imageshack.us/img154/908/darkbringervc8.png
http://img154.imageshack.us/img154/3886/lightkeeperpg9.png
And these.
Names:Darkbringer and LightKeeper
Found: When gain the new drive form in KH2 FM+ (I wish)
Powers: On it's own, Lightkeeper absorbs 1 Drive Bar to fire a wave of heartless-damaging light (Refract ability), Darkbringer throws a wave of shadow to damage everything else but that heals Heartless (Shadow Wave ability). When used together in a drive form, selecting either ability creates a double-strength wave of non-elemental energy for no extra cost.
Origin: I was making LightKeeper on Paint because I thought there should be a crystal keyblade with light-related powers, and it looked cool and evil when I used the Invert Colors function.

[lonbilly]

how do you put in images?

[Riku]

Use [IMG] tags, typing in the image url :)

JET73L, please resize your picture to fit comfortably in the page.

[Unkown-Aelix]

Linear Warp looks like it could hurt to wield it lol. But practicality isn't going to be judged ;)

Very good work :)


uhhhmmmm actually since its from the warp (basically hell for those non-40k-ers) the "thing" that weilds it either dosent feel pain or weilds it with its, uhh......,


apendages. Maybe. I dunno. If i think about it too long ill get corrupted and my head will explode (not joking).





P.S. This is kinda random, but my friend's site has a forum. Its got a total of 6 members and im sure he would aprectiate it if some more people joined to make it active. the url is...... http://jay.keytofire.net/index.php (jay's site)

Thank you very much.

[JET73L]

That Okay? It was actually two separate images, so it was much easier to do that than to reload it as a different size. Hadn't seen that it was causing a problem, sorry.

[Riku]

Fair enough lol. Even though they're still massive, they're not changing the page diameters now. Thanks for changing it :)

[Unkown-Aelix]

yay! I like it when the page isnt defomed! w00000t. pie.......


well anyway i want to see more of these great drawings and zzzzz...........zzzzzzzz.........zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzz.............puppies....zzzzz............... .zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...................... z.........zzzzzzzzzz...........

[Riku]

I know you're kidding, but that's kind of spam lol. Reduce the number of pies ;)

[Khaos]

http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/8826/pieie3.png

Mmm...

On a much more serious note, I present, LagunaSeeker:

http://img77.imageshack.us/img77/4756/lagunaseeker1ls6.png

The Draft, at least. I can already see some things I need to fix, some white on the handle...The second KeyEdge doesnt quite connect completely. Keychain needs improving to...

http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/7084/lagunaseekerphase3copyrf3.png

[Crazyman]

Keep them rolling in.. We need others!!!
Nice keyblades im seeing!!! Great work to all the people who have entered so far :D

[Unkown-Aelix]

like 4 people have enterd, and Me and Khaos have put in the most..... I think that Khaos is gonna win ( >.> ) oh well. Say is there a prize?

[Riku]

These're really looking good! :) 6 days left to enter! :cool:

[Twilight Blade]

Maybe I'll try to replicate one I drew on MS Paint since I don' have a scanner

[Axizol]

i've designed one
i haven't named it yet
but i have to get onto my dad's computer to use his scanner

[Axel_Fire_Wheel]

these are some really good keyblades

[Unkown-Aelix]

OH!! I just got the Idea of a Thing-Thing keyblade.......ehehehhehehe.

Ill go make it!

[Axel_Fire_Wheel]

Hurry man I gotta go see ya

[.:D.e.s.t.a.t.i.:.]

OOH! OOH! I've got about four creations.

Name: Rising Phoenix

Description: A flamey looking Keyblade with black, orange, crimson and yellow flames painted on the blade, a deep black handle in the shape of Oathkeeper's handle.

Keychain: An orange pheonix.

Element: Fire

Memories of: Axel




Name: The Moon's Shadow

Description: A Keyblade with Oathkeeper's handle, a silver, violet white blade with a pure white crescent shaped moon on the end

Keychain: A black crescent moon

Element: Twilight

Memories of: Me ^^




Name: Ember Moon

Description: An amber red colored blade with some curvy patterns of black, a glowing yellow-white handle in the shape of Oathkeeper's handle

Keychain: An amber red crescent moon.

Element: Dusk

Memories of: Shae (a created character of mine)



Name: Midnight Eclipse

Description: A Keyblade with Oblivion's handle, a black, teal and white blade with a new moon with glimpses of the sun's rays peeking out on the tip

Keychain: A new moon as the keychain.

Element: Dawn

Memories of: Rai (a created character of mine)



My personal favorite is the Moon's Shadow. ^^

[Riku]

You will have to create images of them for them to be accepted in the competition lol

[Axel_Fire_Wheel]

Well they all sound good

[Khaos]

Speaking of Fire:

Inferno. A little bit roughly done.

http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/6232/infernocopy1rs.png

[Riku]

Erm, it looks pretty cool, but where do you hold it? lol

[Axel_Fire_Wheel]

You'd hurt your hand probably

[Khaos]

Rough draft remember :P

And its the hole kind of thing on the left of the handle.

[Axel_Fire_Wheel]

Oh I see it now

[Riku]

So do I lol, but I'm pretty sure that a Keyblade actually has to have some sort of resemblance to a Key. Soul Eater stretched the extreme of being a Key, but still had some features a Key would have. It's pretty awesome though lol

3 days to go :cool:

[Unkown-Aelix]

Khoas! you make too many!!! I have about no chance now! arg oh well.... Its not like you dont deserve it, they are good. But your kinda not giving anyone a chance................. u_u

[Axel_Fire_Wheel]

dont be jealous man

[Kingdom Hearts Of Light]

Two of my handdrawn keyblades! :)
Do I have to color them?

1. Abandoned Heart
2. Frostessence

[Riku]

You don't have to colour them, but I think you'd have more of a chance of winning if they were lol. They look pretty good :)

2 days to go.

[JET73L]

http://img440.imageshack.us/img440/3342/skeletonkeyblade1qd.png
Skelketon Key
Found after Battle of 1000 Heartless.

[Axizol]

i've got one
it's pretty cool, but my dad won't let me use his computer, argh!
:)

[Khaos]

If it makes you feel any better, Im probably only going to use two of them in the competition...

[Jess]

http://i1.tinypic.com/4858hn5.png

[khfan12345]

[Sora Keyblade Master]

you guys kick a.. doing Keyblades they're awesome.

[Axizol]

:cool:

thank you very much

>>|||said nothing like elvis|||<<

[DarknessRoseEternal]

Do we just put a picture on the post

[Riku]

Put it here, attach it, or link to it. :) Just so that we can get to see it easily.

Where I am it's already the 26th lol, but I think we're going by America's time so you've got at most 4-5 hours left to post.

[Sora Keyblade Master]

http://i1.tinypic.com/4858hn5.png

Uhh .... Big Purpleness ^_^Jessixx I love your Keyblade is awesome it reminds me of the metal chocobo

[Axel_Fire_Wheel]

still... so much purple

[Unkown-Aelix]

PURPLE?!?!?!? What are you talkin' bout? its all grey to me.....

[JET73L]

I see no purpleness either. When do we know the contest results, and is it just going to be firsrt place or will there be like 2nd or 3rd places?

PS: LightKeeper and Darkbringer were supposed to be one entry, but they can be counted as two different keyblade entries.

[Crazyman]

I think the best way to do it is judge each persons entrie/s and then combine those with Riku's and average them out.

Then from there there'll will be a winner of each catagory that we're judging on, and then an overall placing.

[Sora Keyblade Master]

Aelix the first keyblade tou drew kicks a...

[Riku]

Final Contenders:

1 & 2. Khaos with the Order Keyblade and the LagunaSeeker Keyblade.

3 to 7. Unknown-Aelix with The Emptiness Inside, Mid-Morning, Belief in Faith, Linear Warp, and Void Oath Keyblades.

8. Berry187 with the Darkness Heart Keyblade.

9 to 12. JET73L with the Road to Oblivion, Darkbringer, Lightkeeper, and Skelketon Keyblades.

13 & 14. Kingdom Hearts of Light with the Abandoned Heart Keyblade and the Frostessence Keyblade.

15. Jessixx with the Big Purpleness Keyblade.

16. Axizol with the Noblade.

Results soon :)

[Crazyman]

Okay so i've finished my judging :D
Now all i need now is Riku's scores and Riku-Sora's then I can average them all out and find all the winners and what not!!

[Riku]

I've done mine :) If Riku-Sora ever returns, we'll get some results lol.

[Jess]

You guys liked Big Purpleness xD Lmao coolio ... I can do better I think >.> Whatever WIN WIN WIN!!

[ShikaX]

win what??????

[Riku]

It's the Design-a-Kayblade Competition. Two of the judges have judged, we're just waiting on Riku-Sora lol

[Axel_Fire_Wheel]

that's exactly my ?

[ShikaX]

OH ok I couldn't even learn howto upload pics so I couldn't even do it I would win if I could

[Axel_Fire_Wheel]

what do you guys think of this

[Riku]

Pretty cool but too late for the competition.

We missed him! lol Riku-Sora came on and I completely forgot to remind him (ironically) to come and judge.

[Axel_Fire_Wheel]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[Axizol]

haha!
i have a feeling that this will never get done...





don't forget... 5 more days for the goofy/donald weapon competition!

[Aerith]

Couldn't you just go by the 2 judges you've got or ask someone else to judge instead?

[Axizol]

well Aerith... if you wanted to judge that bad... you could have just asked... haha! just kidding....

*doesn't eat...*

sorry my silly emo comment:D





don't forget... 5 more days for the goofy/donald weapon competition!

[Aerith]

Well I missed out on entering so I'd be willing to do it but question is still posed.

[Axizol]

lol... she wants to judge





don't forget... 5 more days for the goofy/donald weapon competition!

[Riku]

Neither Crazyman nor Riku-Sora have been on in awhile.

I won't reveal who I picked as top as it's Crazyman's competition.

[Aerith]

I understand, it's Crazyman the question was posed to. ;)

[Jess]

*looses like a fish*

[Axizol]

you loosed?
i thought that you could only lose, not loose...
:D


something could be loose, but you can't loose

[heart of riku]

what do you guys think of this
you didnt do that yourself

[JET73L]

2Loosevblossed; loosing 1 a : to let loose : RELEASE : b : to free from restraint 2 : to make loose: UNTIE <~a knot> 3 : to cast loose : DETACH : 4 : to let fly : DISCHARGE : 5 to make less rigid, tight, or strict : RELAX : ~ vi: to let fly a missile (as an arrow) : FIRE
{Roughly copied from Merriam Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, Tenth Edition}

Well, whaddaya know, I guess you can loose something.


So are you goinmg to keep waiting for Riku-Sora, or is someone else going to take over his position as 3rd judge?

[Crazyman]

Alright sorry for the wait.. thanks for being patient.

I will show the results hopefully after work tonight!!!
YESSSSSSSSS :D

We'll just have to flag Riku-Sora and go off me and Riku's scores

[Riku-Sora]

No need to flag me. I am sorry people. Alot of yall probably have been annoyed at me for not answering in so long.

Junior college, slow internet connection in my dorm room, and lets not even start talking about the homework I have.

Anyway I PMed Crazyman with my results.

[Unkown-Aelix]

Sweet, well I think that Khaos's Laguna Seeker is da best.......He should (or maybe already is) a graphic designer for something.

[Oblivion_and_Oathkeeper]

im guessing its too late to enter... right?

[Riku]

As the judges have already judged, yes lol. Crazyman should be revealing the results soon.
