Default Graphically gifted Indiana Jones fans, take your chance!

Dead AGers,

At this moment, there is a contest going on for people that like to create a cool design for a new action figure toy line, called smart bombs. The masterbrain behind it (Ken Lilly) was also responsible for the realy cool Muppet Show & Ren and Stimpy toyline of Palisades.

You have to come up with a design for two figures (Little Boy & Fat Man), for which the 3D design has already been done, your task is the paint job.

One of the themes is Indiana Jones: "The theme of this Duo Pack is ADVENTURE, and the Little Boy should be themed in some way to look like a certain archeological adventurer and the Fat Man should be themed like a fertility idol made of gold! You can invert that scenario if you wish."

Since I think many AGers like Indiana Jones, I thought it is appropriate to mention this contest.

The cool thing is that this gives an opportunity to provide your own design for a real toy figure line.

Information can be found here:

Design contest Creatus Maximus

Good luck,

Jaap

PS
The other themes are: Bert & Ernie, R2D2 & 3CPO, batman & Robin, & Star trek.

Maybe the dead ones are better artists.

Little Boy and Fat Man? Aren't those the names of the bombs dropped over Hiroshima and Nagasaki?

Whow, that's an embarrassing typo! (Or it might be some Freudian incomporation of the notion of those silly gaming magazines that the adventure genre is dead )

Anyway, I submitted my Burny & Hurt design for his Ernie & Bert contest.
