I bring you the... Shield of History:

As the shield tells the story a nation was burned out from their home and they set sail for another land. After some days they found a beatiful place to live. For years they lived there and consturcted a mighty stone tower. From the tower they saw the same tribe who once destroyd their home. A war started.The barbarians lost and thei leader was killed and the nation had it's revenge.

I think he was referring to this .

SinSin · Thu 07/09/2006 23:43:01

" Wait thats not rain"

my god ur funny

but that doesnt really answer my question does it :

im a paranoid idiot

Phemar · Fri 08/09/2006 16:42:18

Yeah it does. It was just a small reference to internet pop-culture

You happened to draw an owl on your sheild, and there happened to be an internet phenomenon based on an owl and the term 'o rly', so Psychofox parodied the internet phenomenon by adding the term 'o rly' to your sheild. It wasn't a stab at you so don't worry about it.

btw, Shade, that looks really good

I never played any Zelda games but that sheild looks real neat!

Shade · Fri 08/09/2006 17:03:44

well thanks

Link's shield is probably the only thing i can draw/paint so that it looks quiet good.

lilemX · Fri 08/09/2006 17:04:56

thanx for explaining that to me haha

yeah i think shade is deffinatly gonna win this he deserves it

Tuomas · Fri 08/09/2006 18:02:29

That's a bit hasty, don't you think. There are a lot of good entries and 9 days to go... I'm not saying Shade's isn't very good, I'm just saying, please don't try to effect the judges thinking. Besides it's not critics lounge. Don't take this as I was acting like a moderator, I'm just a bit hang-over-ish 8)

lilemX · Fri 08/09/2006 18:32:42

if i was trying to sway the desission dont u think id do that for my own :

so to refrase yeah i think everyones entry is very good...so far...

and the clear favorite of a few people is shade so because of the comments it looks like he is goona win!!!

is that better

SinSin · Sat 09/09/2006 00:59:44

true true

Trapho · Sat 09/09/2006 11:16:40

Its The spider shield.

The shield gives +2 to saves against web..

Im not to happy with the colours yet, so it might change if i have the time.

Palikka · Sat 09/09/2006 12:23:36

Battle hardened shield of the Ogre Tooth Clan.

CoffeeBob · Sun 10/09/2006 10:50:42

Uh, dunno if this entry really counts, as I've edited the shape of the shield quite a bit, but here goes.

It's the Proto Shield!

Tocsik · Thu 14/09/2006 18:22:13

Almost time to announce some winners, If you were still planning on entering your runnig out of time. Also as there has been some concern about biasing do to posts I'm going to show my wife just the images (she already understands the process and rules) and let her pick. that way you can be assured that my choice wasn't biased by posts.

Illustrious · Thu 14/09/2006 23:28:33

Right, well I started this sprite enthusiastically as soon as this AGS colouring ball contest started.

I had then re-read the specification and discovered I was heading down the wrong road and gave up...
As you can see I went for a more taxidermy route, not quite a shield but completly original. And I kept the shape of the shield!?

So I thought Id share it rather than not enter...
If you'll accept it as an entry, this is my entry.
If not, well I had fun doing it before I discovered the real wants within the guidance plan.

Great shields everyone!

Tocsik · Fri 15/09/2006 01:28:07

I must admit that part of the reason I wanted my wife to judge was that all the sheilds were really impresive and if I could have given you all first I would have. But, alas, I made my wife pick just three.

Palikka 1st Place- shield of the sun

lilemX 2nd place- shield of the moon

KristjanMan 3rd place- (excellent idea) shield of the stars

Illustrious- honourable mention - Impresive even if it didn't quite fit the theme.

take it away Palikka

Palikka · Fri 15/09/2006 10:34:20

Yes! I win! I RULE! \o/ \\o o// \o/

KristjanMan · Fri 15/09/2006 12:49:40
