Coloring Ball: â€žAlternative Westernâ€œ (WINNER ANNOUNCED!)

Camden · Mon 14/11/2011 20:37:23

Hello everybody!

I'm really happy to be the host of this Coloring Ball session and... you know what else makes me happy?

Alternative Western

You remember the giant mechanical spider in the Wild Wild West movie? You remember the zombies from Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare? Just draw something in relation with the western theme and add something weird to it from a fantasy or science-fiction background!

You are allowed to rotate the shape, color the outline and use as much colors, as you like to create this twisted western pixel art.

Don't be shy and show your skills!

Contest is now opened.

The voting starts at 01.12.2011 (forum-time).

Trophies!

Nice shape, I can already see a couple of things in there

Tabata · Mon 21/11/2011 20:54:12

Not really like I wanted it, but nontheless here are my

,,cowboy-dreams of the future"

Remember Rosie from "The Jetsons"?
I wanted her to be his dream of the future

This is the ultimate 19th century wild west winchester docking station for cowboys and union officers.
Fits donkeys and mid-sized horses.

@Tabata & @Adrian

Whoa! Nice entries with this - in my opinion - tricky shape.

@others

Still one week to compete "Go Go Go!"

@all

I added some trophies you can see in the first post.

The old digger found a gold vein in the abandoned mine.

Here is the steam autochenille equipped with a steam-loading pistol that he bought to protect his property.

star wars goes western! :O

Camden · Thu 01/12/2011 21:55:22

It's voting time!

Who will be the Man with the Golden Gun?

With two new awesome entries by Darkdan and Bogdan, we have four contestants!

Tabata Bogdan Adrian Darkdan

Everyone is allowed to vote!

Tabata · Fri 02/12/2011 02:34:07

A difficult shape to be used completely and in a good way.

My vote goes to Darkdan,
because the idea, grafic and the use of the shape are simply brilliant for my taste!

DrewCCU · Fri 02/12/2011 04:02:32

They are all unique in their own way but my eye keeps going back to Tabata's entry. Maybe because of The Jetson's nostalgia?

So, Tabata gets my vote.

Adrian · Fri 02/12/2011 09:02:43

Hard decision! My vote goes to Darkdan for that cute old digger. I love the expression in his face!

Darkdan · Fri 02/12/2011 12:57:12

Not an easy choice.

My vote goes to Tabata for her cute robot maid.

cat · Fri 02/12/2011 13:01:03

Darkdan for best use of the shape. And also because it's a great drawing.

CaptainD · Fri 02/12/2011 13:18:32

I'll have to be boring and go for DarkDan's entry too, though all 4 are very good. It amazes me how you guys come up with some of the stuff...

Also, DarkDan's entry simultaneously reminds me of Andy Capp and one of the enemies in Combat Island from Rainbow Islands.

Though now I come to think of it, maybe he reminds me more of Horace:

NickyNyce · Fri 02/12/2011 14:07:48

Sorry I missed this one. Nice entries everyone

Oh my god, it's Rosy and C3PO in one competition. Darkdan always comes through...BUT

I'm a huge horse lover, and I think Adrian did a really good job with the shape too.

My vote goes to ....Adrian

Matti · Thu 08/12/2011 09:05:12

Darkdan, with Adrian as follow-up.

Camden · Thu 08/12/2011 10:23:19

And my vote goes to Bogdan ! I like the Western Star Wars idea and the execution.

AND WE HAVE A WINNER!

1st place for Darkdan : the man with the Golden Gun - he wins fame, a trophy and the hosting of the next Coloring Ball.

2nd place for Tabata : beware werewolfs - we've got some silver bullets here!

3rd place for Adrian and Bogdan : we have a tie-in and like during the Olympics - we've got two medals!

It was a pleasure to host this though contest! See you next time, guys!

Cheers.

Darkdan · Thu 08/12/2011 13:38:38

Thank you for the votes.

Well, as I am "the man with the Golden Gun", maybe my baker will serve me better now...

I'll open the next round as soon as I find a good theme...

Tabata · Thu 08/12/2011 18:50:21

You did a cool and tricky competition Camden and really nice entries from all the participants!

Also an unexpected new job for me! Thanks for the votes!
Oh - wait - did you say werewolves?

Congatulation for the well deserved win DarkGoldfingerDan!
