there was an obvious amount of effort put into it. aside from having to sculpt the overall body shape perfectly, the artist carved every single scale into the surface. then painted it or glazed it :shock:
good job.


It's supposed to be anonymous. But I did it.....:whistle:



I am very disappointed that we didn't get to read some fabulous blue tongue skink poetry Kelly!! :grump: That is an art form too! You should have entered. :bow1:

I was thinking about each entry being in a different medium. It's kind of like a Best In Show contest now because each entry is already a winner!

On my bus ride home, it hit me that Kelly didn't enter her poetry!
I'm surprised that more people didn't enter the contest. It is neat that all the entries are different medium. Although, it's hard to compare one to the other. A drawing or a sewing project have different challenges than a graphic design or a sculpture.

:shh: I didn't enter...I was fibbing. I wish I was that creative to make that sculpture!

I wanted to do a silly poem, but I just didn't have the time

I have a poem:

Roses are red
My bluey's tongue is blue
I love everything about Gargamel
Except, maybe his poo!

(I never said it would be good.)

Incredible entries. All are great. It is easy to get blown away by the sculpture but every entry shows that took time and effort on the part of the members. Wehn Zach suggested this idea for the contest I would have never imagined this kind of quality.
I agree that all 4 entries should be winners and given a prize but alas, it is not possible.

I will eventually have to vote on one of them but I will not be happy because I will be leaving 3 behind that are just as deserving of a prize.

I should ask as well if any of the art pieces will be for sale?
Maybe I should unveil the hidden clause of this contest that Zach didn't mention at my request. Whoever wins gets the Bible but I get the art piece.
It is only fair!!!!!

Ivan

PS. I am joking by the way.

That's fair, Ivan!

Though I still think there should be a BTS.net fundraiser-auction for the entries... :thumbs: Maybe for a really cool blueycam. Enough bids and we can have IMAX blueycam! :)

Of course, the people who entered might want to keep their creations.

I believe Zach's first post did say 2 weeks...it said 2 weeks somewhere.

I was actually kidding with my post. Those art pieces are so impressive that the creators should keep them indeed.

:noknow: Heck if I had a bluey creation I'd put it up if someone wanted it. I have too much art crap hanging out as it is.
