Luck O' the Textures Contest Winners!

St.Patrick's has now passed and celebrations once filling the streets of Ireland are now over. However luck is still in the air with several great St.Patrick's day themed retextures making their way into the contest set! It is now the moment you've all been waiting for: announcing the winners of the Roblox News St.Patrick's day 2013 contest: Luck O' the Textures! Despite the contest being launched at quite short notice, there were some really creative and imaginative entries. Each entry represented the feel of St.Patrick's day extremely well, choosing relevant colour schemes and designs to suit the nature of the day. Once again, it proved more difficult than expected to narrow down to just three winners and I'd like to congratulate everyone who entered as the quality was visibly astounding.

So without further do, here are the winners of  Roblox News St.Patrick's 2013 contest: Luck O' the Textures:

1st Place - Phantom of the Irish by rebellion666

Using an excellent thumbnail image to fully showcase the detail of this retexture, rebellion has managed produced a fine work of art. I feel that he used the perfect mesh1, well placing the clovers on the texture to form a pattern around the eye-hole of the mask. The clovers are extremely detailed, with a balanced colour scheme throughout the retexture to help them blend, giving the finished product an authentic appearance .What strikes me most about this entry is that it doesn't look like a retexture.


2nd Place - Shamrock Warrior by zerois


Boasting a terrific colour scheme that really caught my eye, this retexture fits in perfectly with the St.Patrick's Day theme of the contest. The black and green provides a real contrast in colour which that helps flesh out the detail found on the retexture. Highlighted with a lighter shades of green which really adds another layer of detail, the mouthguard looks beautiful offset against the top op the helmet. The clovers are also expertly placed on the entry and do not distract from the overall design.


3rd Place - Goldvisionary Diver by DarkGenex


With this entry, DarkGenex makes excellent use of an unusual hat mesh - I have never seen a retexture quite like it! While the neon green colour scheme remains loyal to the basic roots of St.Patrick's day retextures, the gold that can be seen reflecting in the lens is far more adventurous with an authentic texture and shine to the material. This paired with beams of light cascading off the lens and the drum underneath with the yellow and green colour scheme makes this retexture stand out from the crowd!

Runners Up!

Saint Patrick's Casual Wear by Sporeman15

The main texture of this entry is comprised from a great, balanced colour scheme. The gold compliments the dark green well and suggests and shows that gold can be found at the end of the rainbow! The clovers engraved into the pins situated on the side of the retexture and the detailed green leaves on the side add another level of authenticty to the entry.

O' Malley's Worn hat by RayMan36 

Sporting a simple green texture, with a collection of St.Patrick's day themed enamel pinks: this retexture boasts creativity at it's finest! The pin images are well selected and placed on this entry and would suit any Irish patriot!

Once again I'd like to thank everyone who took time to enter our retexture contest. The entries were extremely varied this time around, with each retexture having a unique design.

Thanks,
