Wow, the first place winner’s entry is very detailed/accurate. The only thing that [slightly] bothers me is the tissue paper on the metroid’s underside. Did you enter the contest?
Yeah, the first place winner’s metroid was amazing. The underside looked so realistic that I had an almost visceral reaction to it. I wasn’t exactly grossed-out, but somewhere along the lines of being weirded out by an alien species.
No, I didn’t enter the contest. I’m not nearly crafty or creative enough. :-) How about yourself?
I hadn’t even heard of the contest until you blogged about it, so no, I didn’t enter. Likewise– I’m not skilled enough with visual arts. I wish I was, though; it’d be awesome to create something like that. :P
