It's time for our first contest since the launch of SUITE 2! Now that the two great heavyweights of space are back, let's celebrate with a Star Trek vs Star Wars art competition: Get ready for Scifiathlon 2016! The focus is on developing amazing textures with the SUITE, so let's see what you guys can do! We'll be judging art in several categories based on the quality of texturing - individuals and teams may compete. The categories are: - Environments - Vehicles - Weapons - Characters The rules are simple: - Make anything in the universe of Star Wars or Star Trek within your chosen category. - Enter solo or team up, max 4 members per team. - You may use existing assets as long as they are fully re-textured in Suite 2. Remember that it's texturing quality we're judging! - No polycount or texture resolution restrictions, but keep it sane! The contest begins right now, December 26th! It will run for six weeks, and a competition trial will be available in case you don't own a copy of SUITE 2.
