Aqua Kalamary by Deviant-Man Aqua Kalamary by Deviant-Man
Here is my Entry for the Tail Chasers Contest: [link]

Name: Aqua Kalamary
Species: One Eyed Space Squid
Age: One Million Years (give or take)
Vehicle: Hydro Bike
Made By: Benjamin J. Hayden (AKA Deviant-Man on DA)

Back Story: No one knows where Aqua Kalamary came from or even why he is in the race, all that is known about him is that he is about One Million (give or take) years old and he speaks a long dead language that only the One Eyed Space Squid species use and that no one can understand him.

In relation to the actual artwork: I care not! Very well done, man. That's covering character design and description. And way to go on winning.

I actually really like this!

Anybody else notice the people who are complaining have worse art or none at all?

To expand off the comment above mine, I'm amazed you squeezed enough creativity into 3 lines to win whereas some people wrote several pages and didn't even get mentions.

Good job?

The character design is cool, but what I'm disappointed in is the lack of artistic talent or skills that I assume wasn't examined at all in the judgement of this picture. The picture in itself is very bland in my own opinion, no matter what anyone says. But the golden concept was the main thing that got it it's place. I'm not suprised it won. In fact, I kind of expected it. In any case, I admit that I feel a mist of jealousy, since I couldn't even make it to the runner ups.

Anyways, that's my two cents, congradulations.

Hey, who ever hates this, They can just cram dead monkeys in their nose for all I care. I think the character's a great idea, he could quite possibly have his own Anime OVA with the lengthy million year history he has ^_^ Again, great job and congrats dude ^_^

I'm glad that more consideration was put into how creative the character design was rather than how good the drawing is. No offense, but this is proof.

Congrats on winning!

hey, person....if whoever made the picture put a lot of work into it, then it isn't crappy, IMO

art is in the eye of the beholder: the simplest picture could be the greatest masterpiece

and sry if im getting into deep thought, but im trying to say that i think the character itself is pretty awesome

its also a shame that you only like it because it won, and not for the pic itself

~good job and congratulations, Deviant Man!
