Want to design a Lost Planet 2 Energy Canister?
We have a really easy and fun contest for you! We're looking to make some aluminum bottles that look like T-ENG (Thermal Energy) canisters from Lost Planet 2. With all the customization, there's tons of different canisters you can customize your character with.
Here's where you come in: We want you to come up with your own design for a T-ENG canister. As you can see in the image above, it's basically little rectangles and such, with a simple layout. Anyone can do this. Use Paint, PhotoShop, whatever you have to make a JPG.
Make your design 9 inches wide by 5.5 inches high. Besure that the left and right sides match up exactly in order to create a seamless loop when the wrap is put around the bottle.
Submit your design via a Private Message to THIS GUY, with the subject line as "T-ENG Canister." Include your design (jpg, png, gif, etc.) in that message.
Submit your entry by 11:59 PM Pacific Time on Tuesday, March 16th.
If you win, we'll use your design on the bottles we make! Not only that, but we'll also send you a copy of Lost Planet 2 when it releases, plus a Salamander Plushie!
