Attempts
Here's a description of the contestants' attempts. Someone's probably working on collecting some images to add later!
- Annika creates a line drawing of a Christmas tree, complete with star on top. She earns second place for her recognisable festive image.
- Mahamad immediately remembers something he was taught at school, where one could draw the number '25', and then join it up to make it into an image of a dog wearing a hat. While hammering one of his stakes in, Mahamad loses his grip on the hammer, and almost hits his foot with it. In the studio, he has to point out all of the features of his hat-wearing dog before anyone can see it, so Lasse indicates he is likely going to be marked down on the 'recognisability' element of the scoring. Mahamad earns fourth place for his drawing.
- Neel draws a simple but recognisable castle with two towers and flag on its wall. Lasse points out that it is recognisable, but made up of very simple shapes, so not very ambitious. Neel earns third place for her drawing.
- Anders draws a very simple face, which he titles 'The Happy Rascal with the Little Eyes'. Lasse recognises that it is a face, but thought that the 'hair' was a pair of cat's ears, or part of Batman's mask. Anders earns last place for his effort.
- Jakob immediately states that he is going to recreate The Mona Lisa. He ends up drawing a face which looks more like a bald man with a scar across his eye than The Mona Lisa. Mark points out that Jakob was the only one to use all 66 of his stakes, and that his drawing was over 30 metres long. Despite not resembling the intended subject matter, Jakob earns first place for his effort.
