	say, a character wearing a denim jeans while sporting an ancient roman toga with golden laurel leaves and a funky eyeglasses and an afro/mohawk hairdo.. does that count?

	do you mean that the character is from a different era, and the clothes are from other era?

	Well I don't know how you could see jeans if they were wearing a proper toga... but yes, I think that fits.

	I suspect its a no, but can we use fictional time periods or sci fi fashion? For example Romans in space or star trek uniforms in tudor England? Either way sounds like a good challenge

	Can the time period be one of our own invention, such as an interpretation of futuristic fashion? Edited by AngelOTG - 28 May 2012 at 2:25am

	Here are the basic rules for any confusion : choose 2 separate time periods (fictional or real) The skies the limit! take different traits from each of them combined them into one character! And no it doesn't have to be a full body, as long as you include the two periods Mrmo Tarius has the idea: he took "medieval Japan" and an "astronaut/modern" and put them together! Like the example I had: Egyptian cowboy-- "Ancient Egypt" and "old West" I guess technically it could also be a Western Pharaoh. It's all how you want to look at it and interpret it! PM me if you have anymore questions and good luck! Edited by gogglecrab - 28 May 2012 at 2:10pm

	started working on this tonight, probably won't add a background since I started quite late. it's a medieval stoner metalhead if that wasn't obvious.
	Une signature? Comme Zorro ou Batman?

	Hey guys nice job on your work. I'm entering the contest as well although I think it is a little late for feedback. Either way this is it. This is a cross between the 1930's speakeasy gangster with silk coat, hat, cuffs, etc. and a fantasy rendition of Alphonse Mucha's Neo-Classical dresses with an art nouveau flair. The gunmetal background is also a hybrid of this idea. This is my first real attempt to do something in the pixel art way, so if anyone has some constructive criticism I would be happy to hear it.
