August Fan-artist of the Month... bleh

For this months compo, I want everyone to draw themselves as a Walrus. The more obscure the look it has on it's face the better. Also, make it as detailed as you can. And I want a back story to each entry. Minimal of 4 sentences.

Oh, one more thing. Go nuts. Lets see some different art mediums and styles in this one.



Extra points if you add puns to the picture. Example: your walrus is dressed as a Tusken Raider.

That is crap and is disqualified. Redo it or don't. I don't care. But that isn't going to make it on the poll.

Let this be an example for everyone else to take more than 3 second to make art. I SHOULDN'T have to tell you guys that every time, should I?

My sigworm is a badly drawn worm. Thanks for stating the obvious.

Walruses look a little bit like worms...

You know, I do have some oil pastels somewhere... I'll see what I can do.

And you know you're going to get a different style from me

The Walrus was Paul


You can tell I put extra effort in because the pencil is actually tucked into the goggle band, rather than attached to it with velcro.

EDIT: Oh hey, yeah, backstory.

"During his expedition to the Arctic Circle, Paul began to wonder why everyone else was staring at him. Sure, he'd let his moustache grow a bit, but he wasn't going to waste time shaving when there was all this SCIENCEING to do. And yeah, maybe his canine teeth had grown during the trip - he'd have to check about that with his dentist when he got back. His tail had grown kinda fish-like, which was a bit odd. What really worried him though were the strange flesh-like appendages that had grown and attached his hands to his body. That was just freaky."

I can't believe that took you only a minute.

I think that took thirty to forty minutes (fifty-one minutes between posts, allow ten to twenty minutes to a) find the oil pastels at the beginning and b) scan and upload the image at the end).

So, uh, he was about to throw a Holy Hand Grenade (you know, as you do), when a sorcerer appeared from the shadows and used his sorcery to cast the most magical of spells. This magical spell caused the mud from the ground to BUBBLE and the dirt particles to EBB AND FLOW. This was merely a distraction to avert the worm's eyes as the magician nipped to the local fancy dress shop to purchase a novelty walrus outfit for quite a competetive rate. Putting the costume on was quite an ordeal, but worth it in the end we must say.

There, my REAL entry is actually 4 IN 1: (I hope this one doesn't make people puke)









Yes! It's me drawing my sigworm drawing himself as a walrus!

It was a nice morning with Alex being lazy again, so he though: "HEY! LET'S DRAW SOME CRAP!!". So Alex Ventured out of his bedroom, and took a pencil. Little did he know the adventure that awaited...
And when he was done, he said: "What a piece of crap". But his badly drawn creation couldn't but drop a tear from his badly drawn eyes...


TO BE CONTINUED.

-----

Also, to be fair, I usually do crappy entries at the beggining so I get the hang of it, and it pushes me to do actually something worthy at some point. But considering I don't really get anything good ever, I just leave it be. No need to get angry at my bad entries, since I never get a vote anyways, so everyone should be happy with that. And if you really feel it's so bad, and there's no more space, I don't really mind if I don't make it .
We all laughed at Gingerneck, and the likes, so why would this be worse? I even made a horrible pun into my fake entry, which, if you get it, explains why it's so badly drawn

It's vote will usually correspond to the most popular option, but beware, the wild Shadowmoon is widely known to hold grudges against superior species that it refers to as "seniors", and the fact that the "seniors" pick an option can be enough for it to vote something else.

edit; Oh, we have caught the wild Shadowmoon in course of action. As you'll notice, the single fact that you questioned it has made it slightly change it's opinion. Interesting, isn't it?

Hmmm.... i searched on google and found out there's no wild shadowmoon's existing. However....

This footage has great footage of Wild Shadowmoon. Is there such thing as a Wild Shadowmoon after all? that has yet to be discovered.

Okay. I'll be honest. I do like Poninja's more than drattigans, but i was saying Drattigan's was better so people didn't say your wrong. They'll obviously say it now but whatever.... its my opinion.

Click it!

At least I had a lot of fun drawing this...

[EDIT]
Oh right, the story, I forgot uhm...

When Muscular Worm (Whoosh!) was fighting his enemy, Some Evil Worm, he used his "Hero-ish X-ray of doom" while Some Evil Worm used his "Evil Weapon."
Combined together an energy-beam was created pointing at Muscular Worm (Whoosh!)
When the energy-beam hit Muscular Worm (Whoosh!) he was moved to another dimension and became Muscular Walrus (Whoosh!)
Since Muscular Walrus (Whoosh!) really loved some stupid song by The Beatles, the only thing he said was; "Coo-Coo-Kachoo." (And he began to dance obviously)

I couldn't get it right freehand, so I went with MSpaint again.

Shadoworm was busy at work with his cloning machine. He got some maths help from Paul just for the occasion. Little did Paul know that the machine was built solely for the Semi-Naughty Shadoworm to create his own minion. Just as Shadoworm was testing the machine, a gigantic walrus followed him into the testing site. Little does Shadoworm know that the test's result is behind him, and it has a bukkit.
