Before I start, I want you to know I'm not being bitter. Not at all. I'm simply utterly confused, bamboozled, bemused, bewildered - whatever. I instantly know as I type this, I'll get the flourish of "omg ur jst cryin cuz u dint win!1".
Not at all.
I just really cannot understand how a paint job - and so poor a paint job at that - won. Excluding my own, there were plenty of other great if not better efforts. They looked better, more effort was made, and they generally didn't look utter cockshank.
I mean, part of the incoherently thrown together concoction of, to be honest, pish-poor drawings, was this -- [URL]http://www.geocities.com/thekyzzone3/footballfosco.JPG[/URL]
Sorry, but come on. That is blindingly poor. It looks as if it were drawn by a retarded Himalayan gorilla with the intelligence of a teaspoon, and the mental capacity of a pencil.
Just to reiterate for those with a memory span of a finger nail (which is the majority of you), this is not meant to be a whiny ar**d post. Just a statement of my complete and utter confusion at how such, and to steal Nashy's word, 'cockshank' won.

I'd like your honest opinion here.
Which do you believe is the better drawing(s)? I really wouldn't have put such effort in if I knew the former link would win.
What a way to waste more than a week of valuable revision time.
I'm still sure I'll get the barrage of "omg ur crap cuz u dint win!11392", and "but omg it woz para!1 ur jst jelus!1".
To this I say, shut up and open your eyes.
Freakin' morons.
At least my picture made sense in the slightest. And at least I could spell "Tony", rather than "omg sherrrighef".
Hmmm.
And please, oh please - don't try and guilt trip me because of my insulting of those utterly retarded...things, because it's plain to see.
They're boll*cks.
I tried so very hard to like your entries Kyz, I really did. I tried three times, but failed each time due to the fact that I failed to go not 10 seconds without feeling the need to bludgeon my own head with a knife in an attempt to rid my mind of the images.
Bah.
Not bitter. Honest.

Sorry Para, I'm just trying to say that yours didn't deserve to win no matter what the contest was judged on.
I'll go back to teh age old arguement - If a newbie had've done these paint jobs, and they'd've won, the forum would have been in uproar, if they'd have won at all.

I didn't think it was too bad myself, but am not surprised it didn't come first.

mattributé let it go!
Why exactly is insulting me at all necessary?
If it was abot fun, CTU should've won.
If it was about skill, Azul should've won.
If it was about special needs, Para should've won.

Anyway Paradox was the winner, you cant change it no matter how much we all stick around bickering about it. Its done with! Its in the past.

I'm inclined to agree; if you willingly gave up the time from revision just to draw a picture for a competition you weren't ever guaranteed to win, it seems your the 'moron'. It's all a bit of fun, not about anyones 'drawing skills'.
I think it was a 'scraping the bottom of barrel' EGAD anyway: the drawing is good and as much as I don't think Mr Dox was the most fun, yours certainly wasn't either.
I quite like CTUBauer's meself.

I've said it before - Paradocks' were as fun as cancer.
Shaneo's drawing was superior.
Fight the man.
