Hey there fellow peers, contestants, Steam users and Polycount members. I'm here today with an idea to do a design for Doom Bringer but with a twist of Steampunk or robotic feel for him. Even though i have already designed a few pages in my sketchbook a question popped in my head that urged to be answered. I remembered the ursa cowboy set that was in the dota 2 store but was removed to a reason I did not known of. And in another thread I heard that Value would like items that are really close to the story of their character. Does that mean the cowboy set was removed due to the fact it was a bit off the line? Does that also mean an idea of steampunk and robotic designs for Doom Bringer would be inappropriate? Please leave an answer and I would love to design more before knowing that my work will be unacceptable.

Basically, on most heroes, Valve is strict(-er) about keeping not only with the lore but also with the silhouette and color palette. Check out some stuff on the workshop to get a sense of what is acceptable and what is not (you can check out the incompatible items via filter)
