Design-An-Armor Contest!

So you know how Guild Wars has the design a weapon contest? People send in pictures of weapons they've designed and then the top ones are picked and made into weapons in Guild Wars? Well I think they should have a similar contest, but instead of designing weapons, it should be for designing new armor sets. And then the top entries would be made into armor in the game. What do you guys think?

P.S. Sorry if there is a thread for this already, I checked and didn't see anything...

I'm sure about, this idea got posted like a million of times .. and anet is aware of it, that the comm wishes to have such a contest really much

+1 before close

Probably to complicated for A.Net to put into the game. Normally armors are only added when new content (games, expansions) come out. There would just be to much coding and model making for them to fool with, since all their time is devoted to GW2 right now.

erm, please, no more ugly festival hat replicas incident. ie the icy crown. beautiful as a concept, ugly when apply.

I'm all for it. Except for Warriors, all professions miss 1 to 10 armors, and at least Luxons and Kurzicks have heard about Dervishes and Paragons since they give them skills.

So, how would you draw chaos armour? :/

hah yeah that would be awesome, i would love drawing armor for Anet, but like some people said it would be too difficult to put it in but yeah they are working on GW2 so maybe they would do that and add it in there but idk

Umm...
Send a drawing with nothing but a head and say "it's dyed white"

Would be grand, and even better if they limit it the amount of armor.

For instance, to make it equal amount of how many armors for each profession, set it up so that only these amounts of armors are accepted.

0 Warrior *Change Silver Eagle to Dwarven*
1 Monk *Dwarven armor*
1 Necromancer *Dwarven armor*
2 Elementalist *Dwarven/one in Grotto/Citadel, to equal to the 3 above for prophecies armor*
2 Ranger *Dwarven/one in Grotto/Citadel, to equal to the 3 above for prophecies armor*
2 Mesmer *Dwarven/one in Grotto/Citadel, to equal to the 3 above for prophecies armor*
6 Assassin *Since they get Exotic and Imperial, only need Dwarven, and 5 prophecies armor from Grotto and GC*
6 Ritualist *Since they get Exotic and Imperial, only need Dwarven, and 5 prophecies armor from Grotto and GC*
9 Paragon *Kurzick, Luxon, Canthan, 5 Prophecies, Dwarven*
9 Dervish *Kurzick, Luxon, Canthan, 5 Prophecies, Dwarven*

Also, a "Deldrimor" armor set wouldn't be bad, as long as it is an actual armor set that can be put in the HoM. If a "Deldrimor" armor set were to be added, then maybe the "Silver Eagle" can be moved to the end-game area for prophecies and renamed Deldrimor armor, to help make the amount of armor more equal.
