MOCK

Spoiler:

5 points. Well what is not to love about this monster. A paddle in the water to keep your feet cool, a mouthwatering cocktail and a seat to rest your weary bones. Whilst this would probably infuriate the neighbours you would be too pissed to care. Love it

NIAMH

Spoiler:

3 points. I did laugh when I saw this. Overall, its a conversation starter. I dont think Gen Z would immediately know what a croc is but for the older generation its ideal. If the shoe fits I guess

[Kate!]

Well done everyone

I was also drawn to the excellent value in this time of austerity. The addition of some balls in the image is astute as if the kids had brothers, they could use this as a set of goals and play football and hey invite the sisters too as they will have been inspired by the Lionesses. Dual purpose and cheap. Good shout.

Cover blown We do chat weather a lot (which is easy with Texas weather) in the lawn and I do explain what is happening

Decorate this horse

So you tried your hand at inflatables. But how did you get on with decorating this horse?

[Maru]

Mock needs to celebrate with a cold one tonight

MARU

Spoiler:

It's titled "The Land of Nintendo"



Poor weiner dogs have to race alongside the horseys. But in this way, they can still race and bet at the same time. Magic.

[Kate!]

Excellent Mock and Maru

[Maru]

I'm waiting for the AI debate to show up from the TM

ANNIE

[Kate!]

Wow Annie

[Benjamin]

NIAMH

Spoiler:

[Maru]

I love Annie's. It's like Rainbow Brite meets Mexican heritage

[Maru]

Niamh's

[Kate!]

Niamh you genius

[Maru]

Who is the guy with the grey shirt. I know who Ben is...

Ben also

Again, the Task Master was passed these with your identities hidden.

Let’s see what they had to say about these erm, fine designs.


MOCK

Spoiler:

2 points. A stark and ethereal choice here with bat wings and a choice of 3 horns, rather reminded me of 10th Century Iceland and Odin's eight-footed pacer named Sleipnir. The back facing horn could poke a riders eye out so I did have some health and safety issues here.

MARU

Spoiler:

3 points. Haha, good to see this asture horse does not identify as a Unicorn and is giving a ride to a tech savvy Sausage dog with a Wizardly juant about him. Its giving fun.

[Benjamin]

ANNIE

Spoiler:

4 points. Good solid entry bursting with colour and vigor. An astute tip of the hat to the BB eye and a picture of Finchy from The Office (I think) who is a bloody good rep. Vibrant.

[Benjamin]

NIAMH

Spoiler:

5 points. Good pun, very funny image, lovely smile. Unusual to have Ben's avatar and what looks like Michael Stone riding (the former militant who was a member of the Ulster Defence Association, a loyalist paramilitary group in Northern Ireland) - which is a lovely combination of a Psychotic killer and the Irish lad. The addition of the Towers was the icing on this equine croc cake.

KATE

Spoiler:

1 point. I don’t think any teacher would be happy with this standard AI entry and it’s just a horses head and not a whole horse.

[Kate!]

Ahhh well. I tried. I'm utterly useless at designing and everyone was better than me so it's fair enough lol.

I'll have to up my game

[Benjamin]

So the total scores after the 1st round look like this:

8 points - Niamh
7 points - Maru
7 points - Mock
6 points - Annie
2 points - Kate

But it’s still early days, and many more challenges to come.

Speaking of challenges, let’s get you set up with some fresh hell to torture you with.
