September (2017) Planet Minecraft Skin Contest Poll
Once again, it's time to pick the theme for our upcoming contest!
Read over each of the ideas carefully, making sure to understand what all of them are about before voting. Remember, vote for the one you like the best, not the one you think is going to win!
Apocalypse 2
- We find ourselves deep in the aftermath of nuclear war, coughing up disease and dangerous fumes! Radioactive gasses, polluted ground, murky waters filled with unsavory fish and grime, among other things, plague the world. What type of creatures live in these terrible environments, what type of survivors manage to eek out the day-to-day living, or what else lives out there, deep in the gaseous fog? Make a skin detailing a creature, character, or other such component of an Apocalypse-scarred world.
Inanimate Objects 2
- One of the most popular contest themes of all time is making a return - Inanimate Objects. This one's straight-forward; see that lamp? Make a skin of it! See that coffee mug? That too! Anything that isn't living, breathing, talking, walking, or other such gross "sentient/nonsentient being" activities is fair game for this contest! You can even inject that sense of being into the object you choose, and make it come to life! What would it do? How would it act? Murderous toasters, oh no! Make a skin that either details an inanimate object (an object that is nonliving) and make it come to life, or leave it inanimate, or maybe pretending to be inanimate!
Storybook Medieval
- The tales we read in storybooks as children come back to life in this contest, stories of daring knights, dashing rogues, and distressed damsels filling the pages of your imagination. What story will you tell with your skin? Perhaps a magical dragon that shoots fiery balls of flame has locked a poor knight in the tower, and a swashbuckling princess must come and save him! Or, a witch finds herself enchanted by the King's... horse? Anything goes in this fairy tale! Make a skin about a character set in a fictional, fantastical medieval world, or perhaps something else that might appear in such a fable.
Laboratory Experiments
- ... Is it alive? Yes! Rise back to life and piece together an entry for the Laboratory Experiments Skin Contest! Use your color and shading talent to stitch a skin together depicting a horrible or beautiful creation of science, wizardry, or downright insanity! What kind of abomination could come from a beaker? Frankenstein, taken from the graves? A world-consuming sludge made of baking flour and too much yeast? Who knows what goes on behind those closed doors, deep in the mad scientist's lair! Make a skin depicting one of these wretched horrors or incredible triumphs.
Western
- Howdy, partner. As you shamble into town, you see a gunslinger on the other end, his finger itchin' on the trigger. Bang! Welcome to the Western Skin Contest! Your job, bounty hunter, is to root out the most interesting, devious, dashing, daring, devilish desperado this side of the Mississippi river. This is the rough and ready West, though; anyone could be a desperado in disguise! Bang bang! Make a skin depicting a typical hero, villain, or roaming wanderer of the West, whether that be a cowboy, stablehand, coach-driver, waterboy, or something else in-between. Be seein' y'all!
Gladiators
- Aut vincere, aut morci! The greatest of all competitions and contests has come to PMC - The Gladiator Skin Contest! In sands made of pixels, you will fight to see who takes the crown as the best skinner in regards to the creation of a fearsome gladiator, battling for their life in an arena, watched by onlookers of all shapes and sizes! But don't worry, you don't have to have just a Roman gladiator; they can be from any time period; the thrill of battle does not cease over time! What do they look like? What type of creature or human are they? Does their weapon maim, bash, break, sully, wound, cut, slice, tear, or shoot? You decide! Make a skin depicting a gladiator or ring-fighter from any point in time, past, present, or future.
Supervillains
- What would Superman be without Lex Luthor? Would Batman have ever been Batman without the Joker? The essential opposite, the terrible nemesis of a hero is the villain, of course! And a good villain only makes the hero that much better. What type of villain terrorizes your imaginary city, traps your hero in a devious device, or fights them fist to fist in glorious combat? What do they look like? What superpowers do they have? Make a skin depicting your own supervillain, and describe what they have for powers, how evil they are, or maybe who their counterpart is!
Food
- Nom nom... Oh! You caught me chowing down on this month's contest, the PMC Food Skin Contest! This one's nice and simple; make a skin depicting food, of any kind, flavor, shape, texture, or form! What do you like to eat? What goes well with it? Make a mouth-watering skin to show us!
Cyberpunk 2
- It's 2279. Deep in the underworld of the neon city, where the only thing that comes from above is rainwater and trash and the only two constants are law and crime. You live in the depths of a futuristic, glowing city, where the best tool is your quick thinking. Imagine a four-armed alien with a bad attitude, a gunslinger with a mask that covers his head, or a pile of sludge that calls itself "Eddy Fenizzi" and has slurred speech. Anything goes in the darkest alleyways, where the light of two stars never shines. Make a skin depicting a grungy sci-fi character or other such facet of a dark, dangerous future city.
This poll will run for one week. Get your votes in!
