A Change of Seasons

Post by Sir Nelson »

My latest vig...

A Change of Seasons


-----------------

I made this vignette today, to use for a banner for our Halloween Vignette Contest. I had several ideas, but in the end it seemed fitting to make something similar to the Autumn vig that I made last year for the same purpose. This was cool, since I got to use both my red wizard's hat, and also my new black skeleton (which I got last week from Troy during his last sale - Thanks, Troy!).

The vig is kinda creepy, huh? Feels right for this time of year... :twisted:

Very nice as usual Sir Nelson. Love the entire scene especially the colors which truely bring out the Hollow's Eve feel.

What color is that magician's hat? It looks either red or orange...

Very nice Sir Nelson. I love that black tree, and the black w/red skellington looks very good. I also really like 'Autumn'.

I remember the other vig from last year and this year's is a inexplicably creepy as the other was quaint and well constructed (that means "very").

Love 'em both, I can't wait to see the contest entries!

I was thinking about your last season vig, and I was thinking on doing one myself. Very good job. I like the way it looks, and it looks evil... :twisted:
Nice. The tree really gives me some inspiration.

Honesty? From a lawyer? I'm shocked!

I still get chills from the thumbnail. I've got to quit looking at it.

Oh that is schweet. I saw this earlier but I still have to say it's one of my favorite (if not my most favorite) of the halloween vigs I've seen. But I'm not ragging on the other peoples, it's just natural for me to act like a suck-up (not that I'm doing that right now, oh no, god forbid).

I really like the tree. The black brings to mind twighlight, the traditional time to go trick or treating.

I said before and I'll say it again, I love Autumn and I love Halloween, so I love any Mocs related to them. 8)


This vig is good, I find the tree a lot more scarier then the ghost(?) for some reason.
