Right, er, June fanart it is, then.

Okay, since I somehow managed to win Fanartist of the Month for May (we really should tighten up the rules for this thing) I will now present the Theme for this month.

I'd like to see iconic images -- famous paintings, movie scenes, classic scenes from TV, and the like -- recreated or subverted in a way related to a Team17 game. (I say that, but we all know everyone will just do Worms anyway.) A bit like that Worms version of the Mona Lisa, or that Star Wars based Apathy comic from way back when. But use your imagination; I'd rather not see a whole thread full of portraits with big eyes, large overbites, and no noses.

(Bonus points if your picture is clear enough that you don't have to explain what the referenced famous image is supposed to be.)

Have fun, or don't.

Hey, I'm just trying to keep things moving. Preferably in some passably sensible direction.

You put him on the poll, and the winner from the poll has to create the next month's fanart thread. Plus, you left the only sensible entry off the poll.

Quite different from the others, and dunno if it really counts (but the fact he said movie scene brings me to the conclusion it does), but here we are.


Points for saying what happens next

Err... I think he may have a problem there.

Worms have a distinct lack of ears.

ASide from the obvious "no ears" thing, if that was me in that chair I'd untie myself -- when your hands aren't attached to your body, escaping being tied to things is easy.

Random drop-inning.
The picture in question is overused and cliched, but iconic nonetheless...

I do hope so. Two months running without drawing a thing would be quite impressive.
