The french painting Emblem (shocking image !!)

[frenchkid]

Well it wouls seem that some of our great french painters were inspired by the spanish team and their t-shirt aboring the proud spanish maskot, a golden deamon riding a bull. So they made a french mascot to be worn at events around the world by french painters. behold...the french chicken !!!! drwaned by bertrand Benoit and painted by Allan C

Guess it just didn\'t look right if he was holding the brush with is wing. No chance of the brush sliping away that way lol

Well if you ever plan to go to Lyon, do PM me. In addition to the mini painters, Lyon is a great city (culture, sports, night events, student events, ...). What studies are you doing?

I\'ll definetly have to see Allan\'s site when I have moment for the T-Shirt. Would be fun to have one just to see the faces of the GW personel at the next french GD .

 

[Smoth]

Oh though that was obvious, sry about missing the explanation. A chiken is the emblem of france, well technicaly it\'s a hen ( spe?)

 

[Jarrett Lee]

I dont get the chicken OR the ass part!

Weird, man.

 

[frenchkid]

about the ass part (not the donkey !!) I guess that is just young french humour. I personaly find it funny, but I understand some might find it offending/disturbing/ or outragous

Apologies to non-french speakers, but this message is better conveyed in le Molière\'s language :
Z\'êtes saoûlants les gars, j\'étais sur Lyon jusqu\'à l\'an dernier et j\'ai rencontré personne... grmbl.

To all others : remember that the rooster is France\'s national mascot.

Sorry, I\'ve been in Lyon for two and a half years (was in Montpellier before), but have been following the CMON forum only recently. Where are you now?

By the way, I thought Jérémie lived in Lyon (haven\'t crossed him yet), didn\'t you try to meet up with him?

Maybe I should start another thread, but does anyone else live in Lyon?

I\'ve been thinking about the French T-Shirt version of \"Le Coq Sportif\" (above)and I think that the English version should be an Archer firing paintbrushes instead of arrows.

Just remembering Agincourt of course.

Just imagine those two T-shirts standing side by side at UK GD. lol

(This is in no way intended as a sleight against the French, merely a continuation of the Anglo-French rivalry which exists with U4-Welcome et al.)

Last year at the french GD, I was really pleased to see so many foreign painters. It gave me the impression of a non virtual CMON . I\'d rather talk about mutual stimulation than rivalry (no pun intended ) between the English and the French.

@Dragonsreach : good idea for the \"Archer firing paintbrushes instead of arrows\". I wonder what the Americans, Germans, and Italians are going to come up with.

Well the American\'s could use the Amerian War of Independance figures from the famous painting with; a Paintbrush instead of the Flute and a Paintpot instead of the drum and the third carrying the flag;

The Germans and Italians will have to decide for themselves. Cos all I can think of is Pizza\'s & Cappuccino\'s for the Italians, Wine, Beer & Sausages for the Germans.

I think we can choose between an eagle and a bear and aren\'t restricted to sausages. I mean, a sausage with a paintbrush? Wait...I find that kinda funny actually. Or we could take Bernd the Bread. He\'s become kind of a mascot.
