Yes, it's that time again.
The challenge is to create some kind of holiday-themed content and post a picture here so we can see it. Be it a skin, a scope, a mesh, a mod, an SFX-anything. I personally challenge everybody to do a Christmas version of their avatar (and I'll even do a new one for me). The only real rule is to have fun. The deadline is more-or-less Christmas (but if it takes a little longer, that's fine).
To get us started:

This is an old X-Maspool skin with a new scope, showing what Wade got last year.
Very nice. Scarf and hat look great.
sweet! lovin' the holiday deadpool. but if you don't mind a suggestion, the center chest area looks like its missing something. maybe like a logo or something. but otherwise, still very sweet.
i'ts always sweet to see you hosting these challenges. :thumbup: thanx daglob!
Love it and I am now inspired.

Another thought: Those who can't mesh or scope, or don't skin, use this thread to ask for help. Maybe a mesher/scoper will swap an X-Mas avatar scope for a skin of HIS avatar, and vice versa. This is, of course, coming from a guy whose avatar fits on Male Basic.
Oh, and extra points for posting your work where everybody can get it.
But, like "Whose Line Is This Anyway"...
Cyber Burn is going away for the Holidays... the Cyber Santa Slayer is going to be visiting in his stead... :lol: :lol: :lol:
Is that anything like a Spider-Slayer?

So, here is a new Christmas-themed version of my avatar, made for Sioux City Dynamo's Da Glob scope. It is still a work in progress.

More like a Holiday Assassin...Assuming I can get the Skope to work the way I want it to. :doh:

I saw this on a costume website.
I haven't skinned in several years...but DaGlob got me into the spirit. Kept some of the HKREN base skin..but it was fun.

That's great Thunder! Love the beard.
Very cool stuff here!! :thumbup:
I like a lot that Santa Hulk.
:D

The outfit Storm is wearing is inspired by a Marvel Christmas Card.
Meanwhile, back at the north pole...

This skin goes on Sick Alice's Storm Now scope.

Unfortunately, this Skope may need to wait until next Christmas, but the other one seems to be coming along alright. :D
C'mon. Don't let it be just me, Thunder and Cyber Burn (Yes, I know about CB's project).
I really like the work on Storm's face and again DaGlob you've inspired me to take the challenge. :)
My entry...

Krampus and Perchta. I looked at a lot of images of Krampus and he always had a kid in a basket on his back. I decided I would play with that idea and make the kid like his ward - think Lone Wolf and Cub or Cable and Hope. Either way I didn't know what to call her until I started reading that Krampus and Perchta/Bertha has a shared mythological background (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perchta)So it just made sense to de-aged Perchta and throw her on Krampus' back :) .

Oh I wanted to show a close-up of Perchta to show off her Bat-Boy action figure.
Quick update to the skope:

Hopefully I will actually get these and all of the other stuff I've done out. I'm pretty proud of the skopes and skins so why not share them.
Wowzers!
That Krampus is outstanding! A nice addition to both your Weird World pieces and the Christmas Challenge!
Absolutely beautiful.
That is excellent AA. I really like how you got the girl in the pack, very ingenious.
I've been sick the last few days, so I've fallen behind schedule, so I'm really hoping to be able to play catch up now.
AA, that is just truly inspiring. You have such a creative mind. I have to admit, I am absolutely jealous.
Thanks! I have one more entry for this contest. Hopefully everyone will like it as much.

I really like the work on Storm's face and again DaGlob you've inspired me to take the challenge. :)
Both faces are based on the work of others, the one standing next to Rudolph the Red-Nosed Deadpool is still basically C6, while the other skin uses Alice's original Storm skin as a base. I did change the eyes.
And I can't wait to see what's next

This is my attempt at doing justice to Cyber Burn's excellent scope. It's still a WIP.
Actually, this was my unworthy attempt at doing justice to Daglob's absolutely awesome Skin.
Both of you did a great job!
Thank you Epi. I'm hoping to have the Skope finished within the next day or so, so I can include it with the next batch that I plan on sending to Laughing Paradox. My goal is to have something to show for the New Year.

Too late Ant. Take it down. :angry:
Just kidding. Looks great. Really like the glasses.
Should have saved him for next year. :)

This thing ain't paying attention. I posted last night that now we need to get AA and Thunder to post their stuff someplace so all of us can have those wonderful toys...

That is absolutely awesome AA, the face alone stands out as unique, not to mention, it just really captures the essence of the Santa Clause Character.
I want to apologize, I had wanted to have the "Turbo Man" finished, and hopefully released by now. Unfortunately, I'm not quite satisfied with my Skope, and I don't feel right releasing something that I'm this unhappy with. Also, I want to make a public apology to Daglob, I know he put a lot of work into the Skin, and I just want to make sure that the Skope that is released is deserving of that effort.
So, this is what the finished Turbo Man scope looks like.

:panice
I could not for the life of me Skope the Gloves/Wrist Blasters to my Satisfaction, they were among the many pieces that were really frustrating me. But you have once again worked your Skinner's Magic, and turned them into something fantastic.
In all seriousness though...just, WoW!!!
That looks great guys! Sweet design.
I love all of these! :thumbup:
They're all clever and they all look great to boot!
