We haven’t had a contest here at the Lair in quite some time and we felt like it was long overdue so we have teamed up with Sideshow Collectibles to bring you a contest that will allow you to show off your skill and creativity!

What do we want you to do? Sculpt, build, or assemble a custom Predator plasma cannon! Go crazy with it. Big or small, any variation! This build must be something new you are working on specifically for this contest, not an old build or a build already in progress.

The contest will run from May 11 through May 31 at 10:00pm PST, giving you almost 3 full weeks to work on your build!

For details about your entry, read on!


Entry Submission

Submission is easy! Just create a new thread, here in the Predator Weapons & Armor forum with the title: "[Your board name]'s Custom Cannon Contest Entry"

In the first post of your thread, tell us what you are planning to build, and what medium you plan to use. While it is not required, we'd also like you to include a little about your skill and experience within the prop and costume community as well as any tips you might like to share.

Before the end of the contest (May 31[sup]st[/sup]), you must post at least two "finished" photos of your build into your thread.

On 06/04/2012 we will create a poll for voting from our members through 06/07/2012. Winners will be announced on 06/08/2012. Winners will be determined by vote. There will be one winner .


What is the prize?

Sideshow Collectibles is donating a 1:6 scale Shadow Predator from Predator 2, (a $225 value) as the prize for this contest!

What an other cool price is, that SideShow will 'copy' the canon as an unique limited Sideshow product with FULL credit towards the creator.

Yup! The only thing you can't do, is use another cannon or someone else's work as a base. You have to build your own from the ground up, but you are welcome to use found parts or to kitbash models to get what you need.
 
This is just the cannon. I mean... we won't stop you if you want to include the pack, but that is super ambitious in the timeframe given!
 
I am going to try. Wow. This feels like when I went on a roller coaster a few days ago. I was, then I wasn't, then I was, then I wasn't, then I got on.
 
Question, do 3D models count as entries? Or do they have to be actual physicallly created in real life? :)

Has to be physical. If you created something in 3D and then had it 3D printed and finished it up, that would be fine, but you must have an actual physical item as a submission.
 
Gotta admit I'm pretty nervous and excited. Good luck to all the entries! I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with. (y)
