CDC #438 – Hey ol’ Buddy…’ol pal!

So many years ago, for those of you who qualify as whippersnappers, we had weekly one day contests on the blog called Pop Quizzes. Basically a theme would be posted Saturday mornings and you had roughly 24 hours to come up with a piece that fit the theme. They were a lot of fun, and NO...they are not coming back

So I decided toĀ  resurrect one of my favourite PQs from the past.

Your challenge this week is to take the following figure from Companions / Humanoids...

...and using your machining skills. turn it into a fully realized character. This was my entry for the Pop Quiz...

The winner this week will receive my version of their character rendered in glorious HM3. I probably will not use the companion as a base. This is not the hill I want to die on...lol

Please follow the instructions below regarding the naming of entries.

Enter as often as you like!

I have the right to delete any post that I believe crosses this line without warning. Only post characters that have been created solely using Hero Machine, and that you know for certain have never been entered inĀ a contest before. If you arenā€™t certain, donā€™t enter it, because Iā€™m not going to go back through all of the contests and check.

All entries must be in JPG or PNG formĀ (BMPs are too big), posted to a publicly accessible website (likeĀ the HeroMachine :,ImageShack,Ā Deviant Art or whatever);Do not use Photobucket.
