While today's weapons are high powered and tough, they also look amazing. Imagine what the weapons of the future will look like. We think there are talented skinners out there who have powerful imaginations, who can show us what the weapons of the future may look like. Are you one of those skinners?

Entrants for this contest must design a futuristic replacement for any CSS weapon. Entries must be new, previously unreleased skins. Weapon can be a reskin or new model, though new models will be much more likely to score with the judges. Weapon replacement may be for any CSS weapon, but the added complexity of conceptualizing, modeling, skinning and compiling involved in gun replacements will be taken into account by the judges. Entries must be submitted in the Skins > CSS > Futuristic Weapon Contest category in order to be considered for the prizes. Contestants must have taken part in the creation of the entry. You may not submit entries you did not work on. One entry per person.

The prize for first place in this contest is $100 cash, an FPSB keyring and sticker pack, and a front page feature of your skin.

The contest will be open for one month from the submission date of this thread. When the contest submission period has expired, the entries will be judged on craftsmanship, detail, technical ability, and creativity by our six judges. The judges favorites will then be passed on to you, the public, for final voting.

Contestants, please put the link, and only the link, for your submission in the project box on the right when you have submitted your skin. Thanks.
