technically, the football is being viewed from the same angle as the others, we are just looking at it straight on rather than from the side. Football from above would maintain the football shape, as standing straight up and down would be impossible.

The thing is, alpha has drawn some very good things in the past. Not like pro level, but completely understandable, impressive even, so he was definitely throwing for content.

[@peperoni_pepino]

I think the few times he did draw something good it took a long time. Every time he was on one the games where a group of a creators all draw each other's stuff at the same time (with time pressure) his drawings have been quite mediocre. The Kirby and Roblox Noob were both quite recognisable, but I think that if he had more time for the Gardevoir it would have been better.
