Ends after I get enough entries I like for the prizes to go around.
A little about the world: It’s a planet similar to ours. Two Protected Islands have been built on the ruins of World War 3. However, various tribes still live in realm of the Wastelands and Acid Seas, preferring to subsist on their own rather than fall under government regulation. The story follows various groups as they battle each other, including: Specs (government agents with the world’s most powerful weapons), Glazqor (a company that harvests energy from enslaved humans), Guardians (protectors of the Wastelands), Vigilants (investigators of the Wastelands), Nevta (illegal trading group), Yeir (radical organization planning to overthrow the Protected Islands).

Rules:
◘ Design must include both character and weapon. A brief description of the weapon’s function must be included.
◘ Can be human, cyborg/android, or mostly human. Minimal animal parts are allowed.
◘ Must be male or masculine. *If you have an epic design for a female or feminine character, I won't stop you, but just know that I am in need of a male character.
◘ Can be hero, villain, or neutral/ambiguous.
◘ Don’t make a Spec, Guardian, or Vigilant because there are caps on their number, and I have made them all already. Your character does not have to be affiliated with any of the groups I mentioned.
◘ No bio or background art necessary, but you effort on this is appreciated.
◘ Both digital and traditional are fine. Use clay and origami if you want, go wild.
◘ Can use bases, but design must be original.
◘ Concept > art ability.
◘ If you can't draw, you may WRITE your idea.
◘ No limit to number of entries per person. You CAN win more than once.
