Submissions for the Portland Mercury's Easter Coloring Contest were due today. There was nothing in the rules about using Photoshop so I decided to sorta hack it. Here's what I came up with:

It may not make a whole lot of sense but it's not everyday that you come across an image of the San Diego Chicken dressed up as the Grim Reaper. The theme here is "the War on Easter." If anyone has the right to take on the holiday, it's all those hard working chickens out there. That lousy Easter Bunny has been hogging the credit for far too long. Maybe they should unionize. Or stage a coup.

Yeah, I know, I know. I've got too much time on my hands.

There's no less than a dozen famous chickens in there. Can you spot them all? Click the photo to see the high-rez version.
