Default Seeking help for Iron Chef trophies

As some of you may know, we've been running an "Iron Chef Optimization Contest" on the 3.5 forum for quite a while now, under several different chairmen. As the current chair, I've had a recurring problem with folks offering to help by providing trophies for our winners (1st - 3rd place, plus Honorable Mention), only to disappear. So, I come to you seeking someone interested in doing up the trophy for the current contest - Hand of the Winged Master - and, hopefully, taking on the task for at least a couple more rounds, possibly including some that were left unfulfilled in the previous rounds. Anyone interested?

Maaaaybe. Can you provide some samples of the trophies you've had and liked in the past?

Those in my sig are two different examples, discounting the "judges' medal" which would be awesome but totally on the bonus plan. Basically the same design can be used for all trophies in a given round, with a color difference indicating rank. In some rounds, the volunteer artist has done an OotS-style interpretation of the artwork for the Secret Ingredient, and in others (usually when such artwork was not present in the original) the volunteer artist went with something s/he felt appropriate.

Either is better than what I would be able to do, unless someone wanted the artwork of what was apparently an epileptic chicken with a severe caffeine withdrawal problem.

I dunno, that might be kinda cool....

I can do your trophies for this round (and I may be able to for subsequent rounds, but that will depend on my schedule -- just PM me).

What is the Hand of the Winged Master (and what book is it from)? It sounds kinda like a martial arts style, but I'm not entirely sure.

Does Honorable Mention get a trophy and, if so, what color?

Can you link to the thread so I can see who the winners and judges are? (Oh, and do you want me to post the finished trophies here for you to repost there or just post them there myself?)

Iron Chef in the Playground. As indicated there, Hand of the Winged Master is in Dragon Magic (and can be accessed via google or other search engine). It's a martial/skirmisher type.

HM hasn't always gotten a trophy; if you choose to make it, we've used Blue.

You can post them yourself, or PM them to me, either way.

Many internet cookies for doing this.

Ah, so this one isn't done yet, correct? Which means I'll need to hold off on names until everyone finishes.

That's correct - unless you're a FUTURE PSYCHIC like Roy.

Sadly, no

Trophies are ready, just waiting on names.

I would also possible be willing to make a round or two of trophies.
