Scratmeus



ibvrXauxbRPFpng


Scratmeus(or Scratmei) use to roam the planet freely, looking after wildlife and caring for each other. Scientist say these ancient beasts were not just in the Arctic but were found in many environments, like the jungle, or hidden under water or even located in the skies. They simply adapt to their environment. Scratmei are also said to be the first known origin of feelings or understanding. Sadly a Redstone powered current hit them whilst they were on a planet, this Redstone wave was caused by someone they call.... "Steve". The stories go that he use to chop down the landscape, kill animals and start fires. They say that his birth was their death. But still the legend goes that these beasts still exist, that they are "living among us" disguised as us. But how can you tell someone may be a Scratmeus? Well it's very simple. Ask them the question, "Metal claw or Meat claw?" if they say Metal claw, then they are a hidden Scratmeus, but if they say Meat claw, they are just human(or are really hungry for a bear claw). It's very important that if you find a Scratmeus, NOT to expose it. If you do the government bight start doing tests and they might become extinct again! Well here is some pictures of the other Scratmei(Snow Scratmeus at the top /)

Weakness=???
It's Legend=Never fully seen but Steve swears he saw it, he claims that he found it in the sky jumping from cloud to cloud with infinite speed, he claims that it was like a god! Disbelievers thought Steve was mad, crazy "off with his head" they would say. Until one day it was caught, the Scarlet Scratmeus was caught in a largely complex Redstone wave machine that is now said to have cause the Scratmei great pain. The Scratmeus was caught but it soon broke free, breaking buildings destroying villages and even the tamed Ender Dragon couldn't stop him! Fortunately only one villager was injured and the Scarlet Scratmeus never came back.

Thanks for helping me get to Pop-Reel, yes it took 3 hours but to be honest there was a lot of talent on Pop-Reel and that was truly difficult to compete with.

This was actually made by Monchius(The picture below!) and I simply added a frame and some highlights to make it look better the original one that he made is here

I got 89th place! I understand this is awesome for my first ever contest to get in the top 100! But I am still disappointed :( I find it annoying that I put all this effort into a description and I didn't make top 50! I got a low score for technique and execution even though I tried my hardest but still... I got 90st :') So I am "happy"

Congratulations on getting into the top 100. I don't think you should be too disappointed about not placing very high in the final leaderboard, but your skins just wasn't good enough, simple as that. Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad skin, but there are some things that bothered be about it.
First of all, the concept. I can't really relate it to the theme, and even though you describe what it's supposed to be pretty detailed, I still can't really see how it's arctic. And as XxLordSoloMonxX said, it shouldn't be required to read the description in order to tell what it is.
Next thing would be the shading and the color. The skin consists of one color only, which isn't bad in the first place, but well, it kinda limits the possibilities. The shading is barely noticable in some places, it needs more contrast. Blocky shading in general looks good, but is kinda amateurish.
As for the description, I like that you put a lot of effort into it, but the description does not count directly into the skin's rating. It's purpose is to give the judges a better understanding of the skin, maybe a small backstory and possibly a reference-picture. Sometimes less is more :)
Good luck in the next contest, in case you're participating!

Diamond for back story. I couldn't really tell what it is when I first saw it though. Reminded me of those white guys from Prometheus.
