WELCOME TO INTERGALACTIC STAR
From across the universe, aliens of all shapes and sizes gather and compete against each other to discover who will be the Intergalactic Star. Could it be you?
Yet another pageant -- but this one asks you to think creatively and imagine up some characters that are much different from the standard. Tentacles, cybernetic arms, purple skin, extra arms and legs...who knows what might appear in other galaxies? It's up to you to discover! Pick a star from the entrants page, reserve, and get to creating!
There will be five rounds to this pageant, and no eliminations. At the end of each round, contestants will be judged on a series of elements:
- Execution of Theme - Does your doll fulfill the critera of the theme?
- Creativity - How interesting and original is your design?
- Technical Skill - How well-made is your doll, how skilled is the creation?
- Colors/Continuity/Detailing - Does everything come together to look complete?

Thus far, we have only received THREE ENTRIES. If we don't receive more in the very near future, the deadline will have to be pushed back and I will have to send out some very naggy e-mails. XD So get those out!

Zosma
The suit Aghlean wears almost completely covers her skin. Only her hands and "feet" are left exposed. The spacesuit was developed mostly against toxic chemicals and unbreathable air, as they discovered their skin was not affected by being exposed when space traveling. Leaving their hands exposed, gives them the dexterity available to them normally, which would otherwise be hindered by bulky metal. Their feet are left exposed as it gives them the steadiest purchase on alien worlds, much like the planet Earth's elephant's feet. Being mainly metal, the suit is not very flexable, but a clothlike plastic ribbing is placed at all the necessary joints. To keep everything air tight, the suit is placed on loosely, and then a button pulls the wires connecting the edges shut tight. In addition, the suit features an air supply on the back, and a liquid food supply on their skull piece. Their eyes are very sensitive, so the eyes are kept covered at almost all times. Ahglean hopes that the world the competition is on doesn't hurt her eyes. The suit's colors are representative of the company that runs them, much to her disappointment (she wanted red and pink). Other companies (as there are many) suits feature colors other than green and blue.
