Mr. Pumpkin's Spooky Bad Breath
I hope I got the idea of the contenst this time ;) I tried to use the given stocks in a creative way to turn them into something completely new. a piece that makes you consider it a little longer to discover all the details. so PLEASE PLEASE FULLVIEW!!!! I painted a lot over the single elements (ears, eyes, mouths...) it was a lot of work but I enjoyed it! so have fun with it and once again: FULLVIEW IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED!

What it is made from?
By reviser on Saturday, 1 November 2008 8:24 PM
No trace of source images

Very interesting piece
I really like the burning eyes and the interaction between the single
spooky parts.
the flames and the wads of smoke are very amazing!
Great work
Peaze
IT IS MADE FROM SOURCE IMAGES!

first of all i like to hear you can't see "traces of recource images" - at least at first glimpse. but regard it a little more intensive and you will see that almost the entire piece is made from the given stock with the two people holding two pumpkins. i used both of the pumpkins (big one, small one where you can even see the holding hand), i used both mouths, eyes of him and her, his ear (slug), a tombstone from the cementary picture, all the ghosts are made from the stock with all the people on it, i used of course the flames.

i painted a lot over several parts, to correct lightning or quality, to make them fit and to give them a new look. i think i did exactly what this contest is about.

the only thing I added - which is far less than many other contributers - is the smoke that is provided by the resurgere crew from deviantart.com (free for noncommercial use and legitimated by the contest rules)

all the rest (drops, spiderwebs, curls etc.) are handpainted!

so have a better look on it and see that the whole piece consits of the given source images!

anyway, thanks for your comment ;)

By asrael on Sunday, 2 November 2008 2:09 PM
so this whole thing is called "DESIGN contest"? to be honest this is the only picture in the entire round that actually FEATURES design elements...look at theese curlicues and ghosts!

very well done!
