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
(http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/4959/wildguns.png)
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).

Nice shape, I can already see a couple of things in there :D
Not really like I wanted it, but nontheless here are my

Remember Rosie (http://i.imgur.com/v2p55.jpg) from "The Jetsons" (http://youtu.be/kaXVvrUrKng)?
I wanted her to be his dream of the future (http://www.smileyvault.com/albums/userpics/12962/10.gif)
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.

Tabata Bogdan Adrian Darkdan
Everyone is allowed to vote!
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! (http://www.smileyvault.com/albums/userpics/12962/whoooo_clap.gif)
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.
Hard decision! My vote goes to Darkdan for that cute old digger. I love the expression in his face!
Not an easy choice. ;)
My vote goes to Tabata for her cute robot maid.
Darkdan for best use of the shape. And also because it's a great drawing.
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:

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
Darkdan, with Adrian as follow-up.
And my vote goes to Bogdan ! I like the Western Star Wars idea and the execution.
AND WE HAVE A WINNER! :D
(http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/7479/trophie.png) 1st place for Darkdan : the man with the Golden Gun - he wins fame, a trophy and the hosting of the next Coloring Ball.
(http://img853.imageshack.us/img853/5048/trophie2h.png) 2nd place for Tabata : beware werewolfs - we've got some silver bullets here!
(http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/7148/trophie3.png)(http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/7148/trophie3.png) 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.
Thank you for the votes. :)
Well, as I am "the man with the Golden Gun", maybe my baker will serve me better now... ;D
I'll open the next round as soon as I find a good theme...
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? (http://www.smilies.4-user.de/include/Girls/smilie_girl_189.gif)
