A group of traveling merchants hired some soldiers to accompany them on their trip across the desert. Along the way, one of the soldiers said he didn't think the merchants could even put up a tent. The merchants however, stated that they most certainly could do such an "easy task", as putting up a tent. Unfortunately for them they turned out wrong...

Re: An Embarrasing Accident
I actually like this one more than my own entry for Best Intentions, truth be told. The desert theme including the camel, the turbans, and the tent that is precariously built versus the other one are both neat, and I like the design of the red one especially; for some reason it reminds me of Castle Guard 6035. I'd give this one my vote, I think, as far as Best Intentions.

Re: An Embarrasing Accident
I like how you made the tents look "tenty" with just regular slopes.

Re: An Embarrasing Accident
Sweet. I was hoping somebody would do something like this!
The only thing I've got for you on the C&C front is that the blob that's supposed to be a fallen down tent kind of looks like an iceberg and needs the story for it to make sense (at least for me). A defined door with a fig's sad/scared/mad head sticking out might help show the intent more completely in the pictures.
