Hello, everybody.

Welcome back to the Coloring Ball, the competition where we give you shapes and you fill them in.

The time before Christmas is always stressful (and I'm sure before other season festivals as well) so it's a good thing to get started early. And look at that, your partner offered to buy the new ornaments, so you don't have to. What an amazing partner you have!

And look at them:
      
They look exactly like you had them in mind, at least as long as you look just at the shape: A moon, a heart, a star...

But then you take a closer look and you realize, something is wrong. That's... that's NOT a classical Christmas Ornament!

Well, what did your partner buy?

Show us by filling in one or more of the shapes with your craziest ideas. You may rotate or mirror the shapes, you may color the outline and either the inside or the outside of the shape. The weirder and crazier, the better!

You have time until 14. December.

I follow the philosophy of "Simplicity counts".



Maybe this is also a possible new Care Bears idea?  You can interpret this any way you like.

Yikes, the first coloring ball I've participated in for what, ten-fifteen years? Surreal. Oh well, I'm having some downtime at work, so here's a sinister little thing I threw together while waiting for the servers to start working again... (Hey, someone had to do the Baphomet head)

Which image site is best for posting limited pallet PNG or GIF files? This contest has inspired me.

Here's a star of another kind, a throwing star!
A ninja shuriken with tips coated in deadly poison!

So many decorations already, and there's still a week left. You're spoiling me, guys! (That doesn't mean you should stop posting entries. On the contrary, I want more. MORE!)

There are those who believe that life here began out there...

@Pax Animo, the rules allow you to rotate the shape. Your entry makes more sense upside-down. Do you want to change it, or is it intended this way?

It's intended to be that way.

There's still a bit more time for votes and so far we do not have a clear winner - so get your votes in!

Great entries all around.  It was hard to narrow down, harder to place them!

1) Rincewind
2) SinSin
3) Cassiebsg

Good luck!

Sinitrena

And we have a winner!

First of all, let me say I love all your ideas; they are amazingly different and creative.

But as always there must be one winner and the forum has decided.

As our third place, we have SinSin's snowman - a beautiful picture. For my taste still a bit too seasonal, when the challenge was specifically to go for something weird. But that doesn't change the fact that it looks very good. I especially like the perspective, the angle used to llok on the snowman. Though, to be honest, the original shape doesn't really matter to this entry, any shape could contain this picture.

Our second place goes to arj0n's Patrick - great idea and fits perfectly with the shape. I could even imagine that something like that is sold somewhere for fans of Spongebob (and if it isn't, it probably should; I'm sure there are enough people that would hang this on their tree.)

And our first place is Rincewind with his demonic Baphomet - amazing; love it. It's really good from an artistic point of view and from the idea. Not only is the star upside-down, the whole concept of nice, seasonal decorations is as well, with the demonic, evil nature of this work. And best of all, I would put it on my tree.

Thank you all fpr your great entries.

Rincewind - your turn to start a new round!

SinSin
