FORUM EVENT: "I-MOCKERY'S DESIGN YOUR OWN MADBALLS CONTEST!"
 

I-Mockery's first forum contest of 2008 has arrived!



As part of our celebration of the return of Madballs as seen this article, we're giving away some of the new Madballs to a few lucky winners! Check 'em out!



You'll have a chance to win some of these Madballs plus the first place winner will also get the special "SICK" edition of the Slobulus Madball seen here:



Who wouldn't want a new friend like that to squeeze?

For this contest, we want you to show us what YOU think one of the future Madballs should look like. What if you were in charge of coming up with designs for some new Madballs? What kinds of bizarre creations would you come up with? Would your Madball have a particular theme?

In order to be eligible for one of the prizes, you must create some kind of new Madball design for your entry to count. Feel free to use any pre-existing graphics/photos to integrate into the design of your new Madball if you're unable to draw it from scratch or build a model from scratch. Also, make sure you give your new Madball an original name! We also encourage you to share any bio info about your new Madball creations.

Your entries can come in one of two formats:
1) You can physically create a Madball model using your own arts 'n craft supplies.
2) You can draw concept art of your Madball.
3) You can Photoshop a Madball with various images you found on the web.

As usual, this contest will be judged on creativity and humor.

If you have any questions still, feel free to ask.

1st Place: The Slobulus "SICK" edition Madball plus your choice of one of the other 3 regular Madballs (Repvile, Bash Brain or Horn Head)

So many ball jokes...
 

I considered Blue Ball, and Low Ball..

But I finally decided that for a MadBall with issues it must be...



Emo-Ball!

Aww look it's mascara is runny.

Killer game, Dude!

He's a grumpy Gus with a lot of guts.

Will his face clear up in time for the big dance?

HAIRBALL!

Man, I wish I had good Gimp or Photoshop skills. Still, I like the idea.

I present to you.....

FOULBALL!

the name sucks. i know.

BALLSACK!
 

i can't post mine it won't let me

-Haylee

ok heres how you do it you put it on a image host site like photobucket and then you use the insert image thing or put the url to the image in between [img] tags

Hey kids, it's BEARTRAP PAT!

And I shall call him Tee-Wrex!

Hitlerball. This is not intended to offend, unless you happen to be a neonazi.

Don't get this guy stuck on your shoe!

Slobulus' cousin that no one brings up in family conversation because of the incident with the goat and the shoe store, Rhymes with lewd it's......

Al Gore was right! We're killing the planet with deadly greenhouse gases, but little did even he know that these greenhouse gases, when combined with mutagenic radiation and the Gaia effect, transform the Earth into...

THE INCONVENIENT TRUTH!!
He's already made a meal out of the moon and is now setting his sights on Mars. If the mile-high tsunamis from the sudden continental shift didn't kill you, the rapid break from orbit will probably do the trick.

Hmm. Is this not spinning for anyone else? I'd upload it to my own site, but that doesn't seem to work at the moment. If you right-click and view the image, its amazing GIFtastic properties should kick in, though.

Eyes Scream

(I decided the original name was better used on a design dressed up militarily)

Fang N' Slime

It's the new Crazy Uncle Eddie....

Now with more mouths to tell you about how he lost a penny in nam!

Not sure that this turned out like I wanted, but oh well.

Screw pixar it's Rat-a-screwy.

He could kick Splinter ass any day...except on Wednesdays...he has quilting class.

Something Fishy

Move over Faker there's a new wrongly colored replicate in town. It's Tawm.

He rejects your friend request.

Torcha-cha-charlie

His crime was his questionable oral hygiene.

Well that's just Ant-tastic!

Prepare for picnics from hell.

Yo bay bay it's da Grease Monkey!

That's no grease he's throwin at cha.

With all due respect, ladies and gentlemen....Dr.Boogey.

Don't worry, he's a doctor.

I was gonna photoshop some actuall smoke onto there, but i couldn't find any good pictures.

The DorF-Ball
 

This is my poor attempt at Redemption,
The Dorf-Ball!!!!

My bad attempt at flattery!
The I-Mockery BALL!!!!! (someone should take my computer away fom me) : (

I Really need a better Hobby!!!
 

You'll want to buy a pair of these (groan).
The Chuck Norris ball !!! It'll Sqaush the Competion (double Groan)


ok i edited my pics sorry for the mess up

we can't access those, dude

upload them to a photobucket or something

Just a quick sketch for fun.

Tweety did, he did see a putty tat.......

and it twas dewicious.

They thought it was gone but truly this is... The Brain That Wouldn't Die!

For such a big brain you'd think he could figure our how to brush his teeth.

Since everyone seems to be drawing their Madballs, I thought I'd give it a try...
I touched them up and colored them in Photoshop, though.








I know they're not very funny, but hopefully I'll get the creativity vote.

Super ShortBus Ball

Cabbage-Dijon Ball
 

I figured if I added the other vile contender of evil from the 80s, the cabbage patch kids, to
pretty much anything hilarity would ensue. Behold! My "mad ball", named Cabbage-Dijon Ball. Evil? Indeed!

Hide! Look out! It's.....The Baldwin!

It's goal, to stay out of rehab.

There are some great entries here so far, guys. Keep 'em coming!

That Tawm ball is hilarious!! So awesome. I may take a stab at this. I love madballs!

Looks like a spider..like thing, talks like Jeff Goldblum. Look out here comes the Brundlespider!

Be afraid spider-man, be very afraid.

Hide the children...and the cashews! It's Zombie Mr.Peanut.

Looks like he's way past his expiration date.

Forged by the condiment gods, it's...ManPickle!

Gedney has nothing on him.

Ok, i just finished mine and here it is! =] Aside from entering the contest, I really wanted to play around with a toy idea for some time now. This was really fun to do!
The image explains this guys background. As vague as it is. I hope you guys like it.

BTW, just how many can we submit? I want to do more but I think due to my job, am only able to do this one for now.
Alright well, this would be my submission. Enjoy!
Madballs!:hypno

As it states in the contest rules, you can submit as many entries as you like. Nice job btw, I dig the entry and hope to see more from ya!

Keep up the great work everybody! :picklehat

PSICHO SONIC BALL
 

Hi, I'm from Brazil and this is my first entry. Sorry my lousy english. I like to call this guy "The Master Psicho Sonic The Hedgehog Ball of Death and Destruction", but you can call it just Psicho Sonic Ball if you want. Hell, you can call it even "Patrick the Pirate" if you want, I dont care.

...
 

And now I realized I dont have a clue about how to post images here. Can someone help me out? I would really apreciate. It's a JPEG file.

Welcome to the internet, Brazil. Go to www.photobucket.com, make a new account, then upload the file. Then you can post the photobucket link here.

Jared is correct. You just upload your images to an image host such as photobucket (or a server of your own). You cannot host them locally on your own computer.

From there, you would simply post the link to the image in between the [IMG] tags.

Lets try again...
 

Thanks dudes. Here it is then, the Psicho Sonic Ball...

Chuck E Cheeseball

I know this sounds like an oxymoron,but ladies and gentlemen....the Eternian Abomination!

Now with more no-pants action!

Behold Dead Malrius Ball!!! Yes, i tried to create a word mixing Mario and Walrus. And I failed.

There are tons of great competitors in the current contest. I hope my entries bring laughter and delight to you the upstanding I-Mockery member. Enjoy!



Who would ever think a quirky Matt Dillon film from the 80's would inspire a Madball?



What nerd hasn't been called a craterface because of an acne problem? At least his guy has an excuse!



Strange but true... I literally had this one come to me while eating green beans. And last, but certainly not least...



Cthulhu... this ball owns you. Period. Now bow and plead for mercy.

Thanks for checking my entries out!

Ladies and gents, The .....ClockBlocker

You'll never be on time again.

since im out of town and stuff, this is all i can do now.:sleep

Ok, I got one more here fresh out of the twisted oven! =] I love doing these! Enjoy.

Back from ye old iron maiden tour, it's...MetalHead!

He will, he will, rocketh thee!

Bomber Ball
 

Here's one BOMB-ASTIC friend of mine

This is a tribute to one of my more favored Ren&Stimpy characters...Egg Yokeo!

He's beautiful.

Last one, it's....The Hoff

Well, I'm done. Good luck to everyone who entered!

Ok, the results are in and here are your winners!

Slobulus - one 3rd place vote, two 2nd place votes, one 1st place vote (Ol' Saint Sick)
MysticJoJo - two 2nd place votes, one 1st place vote (The Inconvenient Truth)
Madman914 - two 3rd place votes (various)

It was really close between 1st and 2nd place, but Slobulus squeaked by with one more vote than MysticJoJo. Congrats to all our winners and thanks to everybody who entered. It was definitely one of the harder contests we've had to judge in recent times, so kudos to all of you who sent in some entries.

To the winners, please send me a PM with your full name and mailing address info along with your prize selections, and I'll send them out as soon as possible.

If you didn't win, don't fret, we have some great new contests coming up this month, so keep your eyes peeled for 'em!

Oh wow! Cool! :) Hey thanks a lot for putting up such a cool contest. I had lots of fun with this.
Although the madball contest is now over, I will still be designing more madballs and actually produce them out of latex foam once I sculpt them out. =]

Everybody rocked these. Good stuff everyone.
I'll send my pm over in a min. Thanks again. :)

I'd like to think I did really well, considering I went up against a madball itself. There's no shame in second, especially in that scenario.

I'm just glad as hell to at least make 3rd, especially since there were so any great ideas.
