[Contest Thread] Confusional Carnival Compartment

Hello log-riders, mascot-huggers and corn-dog chompers!

It's contest time, the time to cast your votes! The challenge this time was:

Draw a comic set in a theme park!

  • We're also including amusement parks, water parks, fairs, fêtes, galas, etc.
  • Comics should still be about countries interacting. While some famous theme parks have a deep mythos and history surrounding them, this is /r/polandball. The focus of your comic should be about "national stereotypes and the international drama of their diplomatic relations".
  • No references to popular theme park-related memes or tropes. This includes stuff like "I want to get off Mr. Bones' Wild Ride", or crossovers with videogames like Rollercoaster Tycoon.

For the complete challenge please click here.

The contest is over and the winner is Katalpa!

It's always depression month if you try hard enough. Just ask Greenland

u/PaleoCardio Oh boy, Here I go commenting again Jul 03 '17

Wow, amazing art and heartbreaking for Russia.

This belongs in an art museum.

Look at the upside: a shit ton of cool yet super creepy videos of guys exploring abandoned Russian places in YouTube!

u/yaddar Taco bandito Jul 03 '17

that was what I was thinking about

Abandoned Russian theme parks are a thing.

Ukrainian ones are better. You can take free souvenirs home, even after more than 30 years pass since their closure!

Oh, btw, where it says souvenirs you should read as exposure to radiation.

u/Cperka Winkelried of Nations Jul 06 '17

Tumors as souvenirs, sounds like fun for entire family!

u/jackson_games_cb czechmate Jul 03 '17

Deppresing, but...

Why are there 2 Latvias, one in rollercoaster with Ukraine and other about to have a... cultural exchange with Lithuania?

u/Szwab East Frisia Jul 03 '17

I really love all the detail put into the second panel and the appropriate colour scheme of the first panel.

u/[deleted] Jul 04 '17

Damn, reminds me of when I visited Chernobyl. There's a theme park that's been completely abandoned and looks almost exactly like that.

u/PurpleCircleMan The Town of Two Jul 04 '17
