This warthog is an uber death machine with spikes and blood. It supposed to be what a demon would want to play Halo in. Its really awesome because i have some crazy red neons under the hood! oh yea, and it leaves trails of blood when you dirve it!

The time will stay as it has been posted; I am sorry if this inconveniences people but its really a reasonable time period for such a small skin (compared to a bsp skin).

Oh noes! my photoshop crapped out and now I need to reinstall it! So gay >_>

Does anybody know if adobe has good support for changing OS? What I mean is I am using a PC version but I plan on buy a Mac and am wondering if I will need to pay for a new Mac version :\ Just a though ;p

Anyways, I was wondering if I could get anybody who plans to submit a skin to post their intentions here so I can make a list of contestants ;p

Hey just thought I'd throw out some tips, suggestions!

Since I never wrote a rule saying nay against working on the skin as a Team it would be perfectly alright for a couple of you to team up and tackle the project in chunks. :)

Also if you need any help with the skin or other technical stuff just ask me! This is supposed to be a fun event, something to motivate you to mod again :p

I can do things like make photoshop masks for you, help you with actually modding the warthog, or basically anything to do with this competition really :P
Remember, its supposed to be fun, the competition is just their to motivate people.

Do your best though! :p

xzodia is it possible with your snow hog to have foot effects like DarkShallFall made when you walk on the sand it would be cool to make tracks with it
