Head texture of the month: Magic!
Sorcerers and magicians, now is the time to use your drawing wands (or mice) to make the best possible head texture!
In this event, the Event Squad (ES) give you guys a theme to work with, and you have 4 weeks to create an amazing head texture. The person who creates the head that best fits the judging criteria receives prizes. But don't worry if you don't make it out on top, as there will be several honourable mentions. Now let's get right into it!
The winner will receive the following:
100000 TC
+
Donations:
Cartier - 50000 TC
The winners of the honourable mentions prize will receive the following:
All winning entries and honourable mention winners will be mentioned in both the Opening Post of the next HTotM with the artists credited AND in a Sticky thread in the art forum. So if you're looking for a chance to establish yourself as an artist in the Toribash community, this is it!
We do still have rules that are to be followed. Keep in mind we may not judge your art if it doesn't follow ALL of these rules.
- No plagiarism, this isn't tolerated at all and is severely punishable
- If your submission looks like a joke, it will not be judged.
- Do not submit old/pre-made textures.
- A rough sketch or WIP is required to prove that it is a head in progress and not a pre-made head that you are reposting.
- Collaborations are allowed, however in this scenario prizes will be split.
- Only one submission is allowed, which also means no alts used to submit two different heads. If you're collaborating with another artist, you can only submit that head.
- Submissions must be in 512x512 or higher.
- Post watermarked flats in this thread with spherical previews. It would be much appreciated if you used Toribash Textures for 3D previews.
- If you aren't using Toribash Textures, ensure to make your previews clear, show all aspects of your head and attempt to keep watermarks somewhat non-intrusive while still being effective.
- We encourage you to post frequent WIPs, just make sure in your post that it's clear what the final product is.
Four weeks after this post, the ES will judge the entries and the process begins. It could take anywhere between 2 days to 1 week. Your entries will be judged based on the following criteria:
- How well the idea fits the theme
- Uniqueness; think outside the box, as it could be the difference between winning and losing
- The execution of your idea
Once the judges have decided on a winner, a post will be made announcing the artists who won / received honourable mentions. Good luck!
This month's theme is MAGIC

Winner: Haku
Honourable mentions: eblouissant and SeeU
The deadline is October 1st, 20:00 (GMT+0)

It seems 95% of the entries here are super generic. Wow a cute anime girl with shiny eyes haven't seen that before
Clint's is very original, not sure how it relates to magic though.
Dengues head looks very nice but it looks like he forced it to fit the 'magical theme'
Weppetkos head is also really nice, but I dislike how he left the top completely blank

Has potential.
Mapping on the horns is a little bad, as it starts to twist at the top
It also lacks any solid details on the side on the 3d view, it looks like you put all your effort into the face and completely forgot about the back / sides
Also why is the hair on heir face black, the the hair on the helmet is grey?
tldr; add more details on the back / sides. The armor can also use some touching up
