hehe, I mean Prizes ... as in awards!

No native english speaker though, I hope you can forgife me

I never realized the difference in these two different words...

WHAM · Fri 06/05/2011 17:05:48

I hope he is grey enough, 7 colours.
I like to keep things pretty simple, so it might not be fancy enough, but oh well.

this time not the obvious filling ...

Bodrius · Fri 06/05/2011 22:36:36

Here's mine:

Tabata · Sun 08/05/2011 23:21:39

used only shades of grey, but no black, white or transparent
(and deliberately tried another position, than the obvious)

x 2

... and well yes, it IS a man!

He is an actor, playing a female role in theatre.

And finally, after a hard day of fighting against the evil in the world, he has got a water melon...

...and he feels a swell of pride

x2

Vote time.

Tabata · Sat 28/05/2011 12:56:19

My favorite is the up side down footballer.
A great idea and well done - so my vote goes to selmiak.

WHAM · Sat 28/05/2011 15:14:43

Sucker for Sci-Fi so my vote goes to BillyCoen.

Matti · Sat 28/05/2011 16:11:45

I vote for selmiak's quite original entry.

Wyz · Sat 28/05/2011 16:31:14

My vote goes to Tabata because she filled the shape in very cleverly.

TomatoesInTheHead · Sat 28/05/2011 16:43:30

My vote goes to BillyCoen, because I think his idea fits best with the grey palette.

Knoodn · Sun 29/05/2011 22:05:21

I like selmiak's entry the most.
It's the outstanding one.

+1 for selmiak.

Dualnames · Mon 30/05/2011 13:45:11

BillyCoen for the win!

cat · Mon 30/05/2011 13:51:02

Knoodn's Watermelonman

Wonkyth · Tue 31/05/2011 08:00:28

Yeah, Watermelon for me too, thanks.

(deleted) · Wed 01/06/2011 08:18:14

It's midnight, now. Time to tally up.

selmiak: 3
BillyCoen: 3
Knoodn: 2
Tabata: 1

Well, I'd planned on giving my vote to Bodrius' deadpan superman, but a tie-breaker is in order. Since the spirit of the Coloring Ball is in how the shape is filled, for me, selmiak's is the more fitting winner.

Good job all around, y'all.

Tabata · Wed 01/06/2011 13:58:45

Even with my internet-trouble on vacation . . .
I want to congatulate to selmiak

. . . and I coudn't believe, that I got a vote :o - WOW - thank you!

selmiak · Thu 02/06/2011 21:47:37

Cool, thanks for all the votes, sadly I completely missed the voting...

Will start a new thread later on. I have an idea but need some more research

damned, the winning trophy is grey
