View Full Version : January Fanartist of the Month
HELLO. It's time for the first fanartist of the month competition of 2007! You know what that means? NOTHING! So there. :(
Oh well, let's try something a little bit different this month. Worms related pictures as usual, but this time I want you to use your imaginations. The twist this month is that YOUR PICTURE MUST NOT CONTAIN ANY WORMS AT ALL. Any pictures with worms in them will be automatically disqualified. :p
So, the winner this month will be the most imaginative piece of Worms fanart that does not feature any worms. The competition will end on the 31st of January, so GO GO GO!
What he said
:eek: BRILLIANT IDEA! I'm in!

Right on splapp... considering the time of of the people around here spend on drawing worms right, this will introduce a healthy change... i might even give it a try! ;)

It's dead easy, anyone remember those comics by Battery Chicken? Some of the best Worms based comics I've ever seen, and they didn't include any worms in them.;)

Is this kind of thing allowed ?

How to halve a thread size in a matter of seconds - start a flamewar and throw the thread off topic so a mod has to delete half of it.
Now don't do it again :p

I guess that siloutte is a worm, so nope

If it's on a sign or something, and it's just a silhouette... I suppose. :p
My first ever Fan Artist of the Month entry.

If it's that the sheep is talking to the cloud, so it gets no response, it isn't funny at all, sorry. Actually, if that's the case, I would add a FAIL there. Not for the art. Just the joke.
SuperBlob
15 Jan 2007, 18:59
You're all idiots. The sheep thinks that the cloud is another super sheep, I got that in two seconds. Therefore, Melon, you get a thumbs up from moi
Hurrah! Someone gets it! Remember, I never said that it was a funny joke...
Paul.Power
15 Jan 2007, 19:42
It took me a little while to twig, but it's not a bad joke.
Okay, it is a bad joke. But bad in a good way.

It would be much more obvious if there was less of the other stuff in the picture.

I thought it was about the MB + Beer joke... oh and the Clouds are more like background objects, I didnt even saw clouds. (ok i'm just lazy))
Oh, and Superblob is just some silly donkey behind.
Well the reasoning behind the MB bomb, beer and pigeon is because I originally thought that the picture would be too empty, so I added it in.
Maybe I'll go and move stuff around in the picture and space it all out a bit. That might make it clearer.
-EDIT- There. Maybe that helps. (You may need to refresh the image if you've seen it before)
GrimOswald
16 Jan 2007, 01:06
I got the joke instantly too. I actually found MB to be more amusing, but hey, I got it. :p

If the cloud was (just a bit) sheep shaped, it would be way better.
Akuryou13

If the cloud was (just a bit) sheep shaped, it would be way better.agreed. it's rather lack-luster right now.
and btw, I intend to enter this competition. if for no other reason than to say :p to error
edit: and voila! an image!

decent enough for my liking. and goofy enough as well.
SuperBlob
16 Jan 2007, 19:16
Bugger. Your effects will be your downfall Aku! :p
Uhhh.... did you actually do that yourself? Or just take a screenshot? Because if you didn't do it yourself, then it doesn't count.
Oh, and nice artwork there Akuryou, I'm loving it.
Well, I kina' pieced it together using multiple screenshots. I took a screen shot of me using the donkey. Then I enlarged the donkey. Then I took another one of a basically blank map to get the background. The Bush that the Iron Donkey is about to eat is also from another screenshot. So does it count or not?
_Kilburn
16 Jan 2007, 23:22
This is a screenshot from the mission Pie Eating Piper from WWP. FAIL ! :mad:
No it isn't!
I don't even know what that is!
thomasp
16 Jan 2007, 23:31
Fanart has to be an original creation - this isn't a screenshot competition.
By all means go and draw a concrete donkey, but you're not allowed to post a screenshot from the game :)
Okay then. I'm fine with that. It'll be coming soon!

Why... are you drawing a wireframe for it?
Akuryou13
18 Jan 2007, 02:40
Why... are you drawing a wireframe for it? to get a better feel for how it would be in 3D I'd imagine. would be easier to make a 3D-ish image using that technique.
But bad in a good way.
So you're going to participate in the competition again?

Bah. I interpreted the competition's theme differently.
You're all just drawing the sheep.
I thought that the theme was to draw art about the worms themselves, without actually showing any worms.

Your post was hanging off the bottom of the message panel.
The CSS had gone whacko (or my browser didn't render the page properly).

You probably shoulda made a joke about how she wanted her hair to be straight, not fluffy!
Oh, it reminded me of when Dougal dyed himself blue.

Stoned dog from a TV Series called: The Magic Roundabout. Or something.Got it in one.
I need to watch that Magic Roundabout movie at some point, if only for a laugh.
Stoned dog from a TV Series called: The Magic Roundabout.Bingo.
And he dyed himself blue in Dougal and the Blue Cat, which was a great film. I've no idea what the new one was like, but it looks pretty crap to be honest, what's The Magic Roundabout without the original style of animation? (Or even the original english translator? He's dead!)
