Warhawk Paint Scheme & Insignia Contest

 

Hi all,

We’re offering you the chance to have your designs featured in a collection of player-created Warhawk insignias and paint schemes that Warhawk players from across Europe will be able to download and use to customise troops and aircraft.

Warhawk’s Game Director, Dylan Jobe, and his team will pick the best 50 insignia and 20 paint schemes. These winning designs will be added to the forthcoming 1.5 patch update, which will be available to download for free from PLAYSTATION®Store this Autumn.

The winners will also receive a limited edition Warhawk statue from Gentle Giant Studios.

How to enter
All you have to do is design a new insignia or paint scheme – or both – and post it into this thread, or email it to us at competitions@community.eu.playstation.com, with ‘Warhawk design competition’ in the subject line.

If entering by email, be sure to include the following information in your email to us:

• Your full name
• Your date of birth
• A daytime telephone number
• Your PSN username

All entries must reach us by 23:59 GMT on Sunday 22 June 2008.

Contest Rules

• You must be aged 16 or over to participate in the competition.
• Your Insignia and Paint designs should be your own work - don’t use any existing logos or designs that have been created by someone else.
• No questionable content. By that we mean stuff that’s illegal, gross or likely to give us nightmares.
• Full terms and conditions can be found here.

How to create a Warhawk insignia
Your new insignia must:

• Be black and white: white is opaque, and black is fully transparent. The ideal insignia uses only white, black and 50% gray.
• Be 64×64 pixels.
• Be a graphic submitted in BMP, PNG or TGA file formats. No JPEGs please.
• Not include any words.

Here are some examples to inspire you:

 

And here are the winning entries from a similar competition hosted by SCEA earlier this year:

How to create a Warhawk paint scheme
Just download one of the aircraft templates below, open it in an image editor such as Paint, Photoshop or Paintshop Pro and apply your paint scheme as if you were using a colouring book.

• Custom War Paint Template: Nemesis
• Custom War Paint Template: Warhawk

The best paint schemes feature clear and bold lines and forms. Don’t use existing designs or any logos at all – save them for the insignia competition.

Your paint scheme should be submitted in JPEG format.

And here are the winning entries from our American friends:

 

We can’t wait to see what you come up with, and we’ll bring you more information about the patch update as soon as we have it.

Good luck!!

Nice one,  just a small question.

Do we actaully have to play Warhawk online to enter? 

[station6]

i guess not, but then how would you see the results?

[TheNarrator]

looks like fun! but rather hard :/ 

[G-kidd]

This should be interesting. Im sure narrator is going to have his own, good luck to all who enter.

Really nice contest but, is it just an impression or is Sweden once more excluded from an official "european" forum contest every other country from these forums (including the two other thirds of the scandinavian forums Sweden itself is part of) are elligible for?

Whatever the case, I'll gladly see that community-created game content pop up with that comming Warhawk update.

[station6]

[G-kidd]
