So I am entering in a Monster High Halloween photo competition on the monster_high community here on lj. I've put a lot of time into my picture! I painted and stamped the walls, which I said was craft yoga since I ended up pressing the stamps very carefully by stepping on the stamp because that gave me the most even stamps. I painted 2 little watercolour paintings and cut out frames for them out of foam. Unfortunately you can only see the content of one of the paintings in the photo I submitted! The second one is behind Frankie's head lol. I also sculpted a pile of little pumpkins which I used in the lower part of the scene. I was going to use those as the floating pumpkins, but then I found some transparent pumpkins and those seemed like they'd work better as floating spectral pumpkins for Spectra to be putting up. Scottie was amazing and drilled holes in all of them for me so that I could put lights in them. It was a pain because the heat of the drill kept melting the bit inside them. o_O We might have killed a couple of drill bits. n_n'
I wish I had more time! There are so many other little details I would have wanted to do, and of course I worked down to the wire for submission! I didn't get the lighting as good as I'd like to, but I'm quite happy with my result!
If you want to look at it, it's in this post on the community! I can't post it elsewhere until the competition is over. :3 As of right now I'm the last submission, and since it's now past the deadline there shouldn't be more but there might be? (Ok, I looked and there is another submission after mine).

I've basically been working on this nonstop today to get everything finished by 11 pm! I'd thought for some reason that I had until Sunday midnight PST (which is an hour off from me, so 11), so my plan of being more chill and spreading today's work over today and tomorrow didn't quite work out. lol So tired!
