Famine:
What if SW.com had a contest involving star wars artists, say, designing a charachter for E3, or Clone wars? How big do you all think it would go over?

Also, if you have a pic that you would enter, if they held said contest, post it here!

MisterPL:
Playmates Toys and Viacom sponsored a "Design an Alien" contest years ago. The grand prize winner got a walk-on role as the alien they designed on Deep Space Nine.

If Lucasfilm did this, I'd enter in a heartbeat.

Go ahead John...  It's OK, you can brag!  Tell the folks who actually won that contest...   ;)

Alright, alright...  I'll tell 'em.  None other than our very own highly esteemed MisterPL.  That's who!   8)

And for you Trek fans, you may very well have (briefly) seen John himself right their on your own TV, disguised as his cool alien of course!  Got that picture floating around still John?

MisterPL:
Geez, can't a man be humble?

Here's the head shot that won.

Here's the costume design I did at Paramount Studios.

Here's the final costume.

That's why I'm partial to the idea of a Star Wars contest. Being on Trek was cool, but being in the last Star Wars movie would probably be a hoot, too. (Unless I got kicked off the set over "creative differences.")

JediMAC:
Humble?  Nah...  Where's the fun in that?!   :-*  But no worries, I won't tell the folks my original guess at your costume there when it was just a blip of a head shot thumbnail for your old RS avatar.  Remember?   :-[

As for an art/design contest for Ep. 3 (or any other property), I think it's a very cool idea, and one that would probably work well for some other franchises.  Just doubtful that Uncle George would ever go for something that creative and fan-friendly...

Looks like a blue version of the alien from The Last Starfighter, with a jockstrap on his head...  Was that your inspiration, or am I off base there?   :P
