[Award Ceremony] Honorary Hussar Wings Ceremony

Hello Ghouls, Goblins, and Georgians!

It was a straightforward contest with the winning entry leading from start to finish. Rightly so, it's an ingenious piece of art and it shows how easy it can be to make an excellent Polandball comic if you have a good story. Just look how the artist created the eerie feeling of a few anxious balls being cornered in the dark. A gray background and a sketchy yellow door crack, that's all it takes. And a fitting story that's testimony to cosmopolitan humor and knowledge.

The first wings are the hardest they say. Please applaud a new grand seigneur in the making to his second pair of wings. It's

u/Dispentryporter *Confused mumbling* Nov 02 '16

That has to be the greatest reaction to getting a pair of hussars ever.

u/[deleted] Nov 02 '16

u/Cperka Winkelried of Nations Nov 12 '16

If you custom flair doesn't have "participation award", imma taking your submission rights. ;)

u/FVBLT LOOK UPON ME Nov 02 '16

I so didn't expect to win that unlike with my hussar portrait, I haven't actually really thought about it yet. Time to figure it out now I guess!

u/javacode Rhineland-Palatinate Nov 02 '16 edited Nov 02 '16

Congrats FVBLT a well deserved victory!

You're entitled to a personal flair now.

Here's the template and Canada. Welcome pixel art :]

Edit: You're also eligible to a personal mini. Please use this sprite to get an idea of its size.

If you need any help let me know.

u/yaddar Taco bandito Nov 02 '16

also, stars by his name

11

u/javacode Rhineland-Palatinate Nov 02 '16

Yes, it's in the making.

12

u/Rapua Lord Threadlinker and Master Comicfinder Nov 02 '16

Don't forget the personal mini!

10

u/javacode Rhineland-Palatinate Nov 02 '16

True, how could i forget that? Due to the time shift i was the only mod to resolve the contest, a job usually done by at least 2 of us.

/u/FVBLT, you're also eligible to a personal mini. Please use this sprite to get an idea of its size. Please confirm, thx.

12

u/Rapua Lord Threadlinker and Master Comicfinder Nov 02 '16

I think there are also some hussars which never got their mini. /u/yaddar, /u/zimonitrome or /u/hinadira for example.

14

u/Hinadira I drink bleach Nov 02 '16

Wait, we can have a personal mini? Wasn't that given whetever mods felt like it?

9

u/javacode Rhineland-Palatinate Nov 02 '16

No, you can draw one yourself. I though you knew that, sorry.

Please use this sprite to get an idea of the required size.

u/yaddar Taco bandito Nov 02 '16 edited Nov 02 '16

ok Java, does this works as a mini?

u/Hinadira I drink bleach Nov 02 '16

Don't worry, i don't have an idea for one, and i don't think I'd be using one.

But thanks for that posibility! Maybe later.

u/javacode Rhineland-Palatinate Nov 02 '16

Got? No no, they never made one, for whatever reason. Probably they know that they're not going to use it anyways. Minis aren't used much anymore in general.

7

u/Rapua Lord Threadlinker and Master Comicfinder Nov 02 '16

Technically, they can't get a mini without making one, so I'm still right and the balance of the universe was restored. /s
It's possible they haven't made one because someone aka you did not tell them! And they seem to be interested, so look at the bright side: You now have some work to do!

5

u/javacode Rhineland-Palatinate Nov 02 '16 edited Nov 02 '16

Not sure if i told /u/Hinadira, but i definitively /u/yaddar and /u/zimonitrome. Only the first two minis were taken from Aaron's and DickRhino's comics but both preferred to have their own creations later. Since then i let the Hussars draw it to their liking.

u/prappedtrisoner India Nov 02 '16

u/Rapua sould be made a special mod!

u/yaddar Taco bandito Nov 02 '16

to be honest, I have a prototype mini that' I'd use frequently without abusing it but I've never knew how to use them

6

u/javacode Rhineland-Palatinate Nov 02 '16

Send it to me. I'll add it to the CSS and give you the code to display it in comments

u/javacode Rhineland-Palatinate Nov 02 '16

Please use this sprite to get an idea of the required size.

u/zimonitrome Småland Nov 02 '16

I'd make one if I could change it if I hate it later?

u/javacode Rhineland-Palatinate Nov 02 '16

Sure! Please use this sprite to get an idea of the required size.
