Description
Hello,
Here's my entry that Won the 'Grand Prize' in the Halloween Contest here.I was/am really suprised and happy to of been selected as a winner from all those 'great entries'.Ive never won a contest before!Thankyou so much:)Im really honered.:)
I thought I'd go for the theme Dinner with the Dead from a different angle to what I imagined most artists possibly would go for(zombies at dinner would come to mind firstly to me).I wish everyone who entered all the best if you didnt win this time and goodluck for next.
If you did get placed then congrats to you too.
May everyone have a great weekend coming.
Cal

A very fine winner this is. The whole image cries masterpiece, and wether your translation of the theme was missed understood by others is a laughing matter I think! You clearly showed what dinner with the dead really means. Ironicly my entry envolved skeletans having a romantic dinner by eating worms, and thus repaying the favour in a morbit kinda way. Cudos to you, you've done an amazing image!
SPEECHLESS A W E S O M E
I congratulate you. It`s excellent like all your pictures.

heck i did an image, it didnt place, and i am not jealous at all (well maybe jealous a little of your modeling skills lol) but seriously, you earned the prize with this image. while its creepy as hell, it truly shows a great imagination, great skill, and a true ability to bring forth said imagination. Excellent job and a prize well deserved!!!! Awesome work!

Congrats! You deserved the price! Most excellent!
Exceptional z-brush work!!
Congratulations !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fanfreakintastic work !!!
A change in underwear is in order! Ya know, jealousy is the absolute killer when it comes to contests. I congratulate you on your win and understand your spin on dinning w/the dead. I’ve entered contests in the past (got 3rd on one actually – no prize) but never got sassy when losing. Just enter, get self satisfaction, learn from the experience and high 5 everyone for trying. Its good to play for the sheer joy of it. If you can't stand to lose, stay out of the game (recent speech to my 9 year old niece)! Enjoy your prizes and know you have “many” mature buddies enjoying your render.
