The beginnings of my entry:

It's just the lineart right now.. but any suggestions? (and yes, it is supposed to be in perspective)

[EDIT] I know it looks like shit, but this is the first attempt at perspective I've ever really made a real effort at.. ><

hands are aoff, and Im not sure wether you should even utilize a face unless you can conjure up a real nasty looking skull.

I know about the hands (it's supposed to be perspectiv anyways). And I'm not even sure exactly what you're saying about the skull thing...

I think he means that the guy's face doesn't look right, and that a skull might fit in better and enhance the overall effect.

[nods] I know a skull *would* work better.. but that does require me being able to draw that.. ><

Shinova interpreted perfectly.

If you cant do a skull then maybe a blank face with only a couple menacing eyes? It just doesnt seem very REaper-ish to me with a human like face.

The right habnd is HUGE and the left is all deformed and tiny....did the reaper have a debilitating disease as a child?

No seriously, it's better than I could ever do...
I agree with the other guys, too. Go with the blank face with menacing eyes, like a giant Jawa.

Well, my update is simple. I just started on it, because both Laird and a relative have me working on two seperate art projects for them right now. So far, it's a slightly uneven ball with a flat bottom made out of paper-mache about four and a half inches long and three inches across. This humble spheroid of crumpled up and floured Post Gazette is all I have until I finish making the plywood stand for it. Then I get to start adding plastiline to it. Lots of plastiline.

Well it's sort of across between Doom, Evil Dead, and many kitchy halloween stereotypes. Oh and there's a hot vamp babe in it.

Shin, your quoting of Rye's img url has done bad things to the formatting.

Well, just to be a bore I actually made something on topic, a freaky pumpkin jack o' lantern thing with an evil stare. As soon as I get back from crippling my liver down the local pub I'll try and make a suitably Hallowe'en scene with it.

singular quartet:Is that sideshow bob on it?

kuja: i think it's a bit sparse really, and the eyes aren't ...what's the word...symmetrical with reference to the sides.

*shrug* No clue. I drew it in about 10 minutes last night. I think it;'s mostly because I suck at drawing humans.

And just ingenerally suck at drawing... so that doesn't really help me...

Honestly?

Honestly, I don't think that it qualifies. It's not even art, to tell you the truth.

Crayz9000 · Post by **Crayz9000** » 2003-10-27 01:11am

Well, here's something I did as a sort of lark in the GIMP... dunno if it qualifies or not, but whatever. Looks sorta creepy anyway. By the way, I claim no credit for the image it's made from.

Oh, uh, yeah... you're out of luck if you're using Internet Exploder.

Spanky The Dolphin · Post by **Spanky The Dolphin** » 2003-10-27 01:45am

I'm using IE and I can see it fine.

Could use a little more work, but it looks pretty good.
