Game 158
Who: Anyone at all
Where: The Arena
When: Day 264, late morning
What: A game!

[The Twins are out today in the Arena's center, lovely stone faces bright with amusement, the round table just before the statue draped with an odd cloth of shimmering grey. On it stand clean, empty glasses and pitchers of juice- cranberry, pomegranate, blueberry, and several that are unidentifiable. Clean bowls are here as well, and a massive platter with a serving spoon and what seems to be cucumbers and tomatoes marinated in some sort of tangy dressing. Beside it, on a separate platter, stand segments of coconut sliced into pieces as regular as that of a pie, and whole, fresh figs. Spiraling out from the central table like spokes on a wheel are smaller tables, also circular, draped in each partnerteam set's colors. These are set with ornate, high-backed chairs, each sporting a cushion upon its seat.]

A pleasant morning to you, little blanks. I have another game for you, and my sister has been gracious enough to help me arrange it. Do make yourselves comfortable, hm~? We'll be getting started any minute now.

Hydracula

2011-08-20 02:31 am UTC (link)

[Hydra turns in a truly magnificent masterpiece. There is a great hydra standing taller than Scowl (as long as it's on the table) that's been built out of a wireframe with clay carefully layered over it. The team has even painstakingly carved in scales—up until they realized they were going to run out of time and turned attention to the more important details like shaping fangs and eyes from the clay for each of the seven heads and proper claws and toes for its feet. The heads are carefully arranged for balance to keep the thing from toppling over, and several of them had googly eyes with pipecleaner spider legs on them stuck in their mouths . . . The eyes appear to have been stabbed before placement to add to the impression that the hydra is actually eating them.

The hydra is standing protectively before a brick castle where a small fox army lies in wait. And in feasting. The foxes have been shaped from pipecleaners (and a few of them look less than perfect . . .) and have been gifted with tiny clay foodstuffs to gorge themselves on. Little cakes and steaks painstakingly shaped and set on tiny clay plates; just look at how cut they are!!

Finally, there is a raptor charging the castle!! Oh no!! Two of the hydra's heads are posed as though lunging down at it, jaws agape. There is also a very tiny fox racing along the ground at the raptor, complete with a tiny wire dagger shoved in its mouth. It all looks very impressive!!

And then Boomer sets the hydra on fire for effect. Most of Hydra seems to approve of this.

Enjoy your performance art, fellow blanks.]

Well, the piece certainly tells of a thrilling battle, though it could, perhaps, use more raptors and eyespiders to make it somewhat more exciting. As it is, I am torn between my own preference to favor those against which the long odds have been placed and the obvious intent of the artist to have us favor those representations of their teams.

The hydra is quite a display of skill, given the limited time and materials. The foxes less so, as if they were almost an afterthought. I would rather more attention paid to the foxes than their feast, to add the impact.

Overall, I believe this is a seven of ten.

[Pygnapus]

aroseagain
2011-08-20 02:36 am UTC (link)

[Sitting in a base of woven flowers, both real and fake, there are two twin dolls posed, back to back.

With wire and clay for limbs (fully pose-able and flexible!), and cloth wraps for dresses, they seem at least to be modeled roughly after the Judges hosting the game. Wings made of wire, and their span filled with feathers and construction paper, stretch out behind both.

The faces are made of clay, with googly eyes staring down and a benevolent pasta smile afixed to both.

The wire arms are posed down, and it seems like one of the twins are offering little clay painted fruits, both normal and... odd looking, but with far too much attention to detail.

The other is handing out little painted weapons. Detailed, fully functional and PLENTIFUL in nature.

~~the title of this piece is the Subtle Hint on a Moonlit Bay~~]

Beardog

madheroking
2011-08-20 02:37 am UTC (link)

*The base of beardog's submission is a simple castle, made from stacking several of the bricks and adding features with clay, then painting on any details. But the important part, and the part that probably will be first to catch the viewer's eye, is not the castle, but the large DRAGON perched upon it. Made out of clay (for the heavier base parts) and a wire frame (for the finer bits) covered with blue fabric, it was then painted- mostly white and gold, but with splashes of various other colors wherever they could feasibly be worked in- and covered with a ~~light~~ moderate coat of glitter. For the scales, you know. The wings are feathers glued on to the wire and fabric frame, again primarily white, but with other colors underneath lining the bottom edges. A few feathers also adorn the head in a sort of crest, and the face bears a very fierce expression painted on it.*

DelPavo

2011-08-20 02:37 am UTC (link)

Using the clay, we have made several adorable little dolls with glass eyes and painted faces and yarn hair and dresses sewn on. Some of them have flowers in their hair. The wires have been used for support and to give them moving limbs. The wooden blocks have been carved into furniture, simple little chairs and tables and a kitchen set, plus some beds and a bookcase. They have also been painted very prettily. The cardboard, bricks and construction paper have been used to create a kind of open mini dollhouse. There are four rooms, a kitchen, a dining room, a front room and a bedroom. Glitter has been used tastefully to make things glimmer and shine all pretty. Feathers and popsicle sticks have been used to decorate the furniture and the background and make everything beautiful. It is all very well made and pretty and shiny.

BUNNYCORN

lawfulreception
2011-08-20 02:37 am UTC (link)

[The bunnycorn girls made a choker, the central pendant hanging down made with elaborate wire scroll work, with a glass eye centerpeice. Two more eyes, surrounded by small clay bead decorations, in matching colors off set the main center piece. It's really quite pretty and elaborate, provided you don't mind creepy staring glass eyes]

[The bunnycorn boys simply glued wires and feathers and other shit on Badger. He is sitting by the display, surrounded by dozens of colorful pipe cleaner men, courtesy of Kurow. They are wearing tiny ties.]

[The bunnycorn girls also decide this is a great time for dress up, and have Badger wearing the choker as well.]
