Should be a challenging theme.

[Allure]

Fitting for the season :D

Yeeee.

Now, stay on topic.

[Allure]

We're on topic, you're trolling kkthanksbai.

Let's keep this going.

We've got some excellent themes.
If you're planning on doing 'Horror', try to make it as scary as possible.
But if you're up for a real challenge, you better be creative if you choose 'Insanity'.
It incorporates a lot of surrealism while 'Horror' may express more photographic art.

Up to you what art styles you use. Even mesh the two if you like.

Good luck!

[NutterNewb]

Hmm.. :3

[joozeppi]

Summary:
Spent few hours finding a good render/stock, found pretty nice one and started working on it.
This was my first sig in Photoshop (Have been using GIMP :3).
Text failed, like always. Overall, I think sig turned out pretty nice.
Good theme, and good luck to others.

[twohandedmna]

nice pics!

[DeathGFx]

baked, you couldnt have waited another 20 days?

[Baked]

baked, you couldnt have waited another 20 days?

Nope. You only pick the theme if you win. Besides, in 20 days the theme can be Halloween.

[24des]

Might be in.

[Baked]

I'm in as well.

[Allure]

Good luck to all :D

Entries! Entries! Entries!
Let's get them in.

[NutterNewb]

Entry summary:

After finding an idea and a render to match, I put multiple images and the render together. I added effects such as lighting and blood to try and make the creepy bitch look creepier D:

I think it came out okay.. :D

[Unlimited]

We need a few more entries!
Horror and Insanity. Or anything sickly psychological.

But remember, you may enter until voting closes (not opens).
