Most Esteemed One-Shot Contest Thread.

Whoops, missed the deadline. I guess it can't hurt to share what I made anyway...

I apparently live in one of the most haunted cities in the UK, and there's a music shop I used to go to all the time which was allegedly haunted by a witch. Supposedly, the witch was locked away in a room within that building, which remains inaccessible to this day. So I gone and done a witch:

As for voting, I'm gonna go with Davy (with LeBelArt as a close runner up). Putain, je veux un croissant maintenant!

You french Holy ? Anyways, good one :)
Oh and your witch is kinda cool, very bloodbornesque if you ask me
I value the effort on the wand which is very well made.
 
@VILARCANE: I vote LeBelArt. he's French as shit. I mean, like seriously. Nice find with the croissant too. I ate one every morning when I visited France. I still miss it at times.

@Francis: Morgan's beautiful. You should take a photo where we can see the whole body. Kinda fuzzy right now.

@Nyte: Nice Sacajawea. more barbarian/footballer than Native American but watevs

Well i am in France and i rarely eat croissants, but sometimes, i go ballistic on croissants & pain au chocolat & pain au raisin & pain au lait & briochettes au beurre...in a very good bakery in my village, ya know, that kind of things...oops, Holycarp is gonna faint :)

Actually, i came to realize my LeBelArt could have been an entry for the food contest as well, kinda :P

Thanks for the compliments, glad you liked her!
And no, I'm not French. I just really like the language so I'm trying to learn it. And I had a lot of fun each time I visited France... Not to mention my borderline unhealthy love for le fromage.

Ahh, don't do this to me! Linking bakery pictures is like linking porn to me. This is giving me such a raging boner appetite right now.

Haha cool ! feel free to test a few sentences with me, i'll gladly help your french improve...especially because i also write novelettes in french once in a while, so i am pretty litterate.
Go to my thread, you'll be seing my lunch for today at the office...yes, i admit I am also trying to draw some attention to my artistic vids of late :P
 
Very tough choice for me, but I'll give my vote to Francis' Morgan La Fay. The colors and the combination of the ribbon sticker with the top puts it over, but Davy's raccoon pelt hat is so good.

Honorable mention to Vil's Le Bel Art, especially the croissant.

Don't forget, voting closes tonight. I'll tally the results and announce the winner after I wake up tomorrow morning.
 
Results:
brucege - 2
VILARCANE - 1
Francis - 1

brucege is this round's winner. Congrats! You may start the next round whenever you're ready.

The idea is to be as outlandish and over-the-top as you can while still looking inexplicably awesome and musical. Any genre of music is fine: funk, metal, punk, hip hop, whatever. Hell, if you can make classical music look cool, go for it. Also, tell us a bit about your CaS or your music!
 
Ladies and Gentlemen: Meet DJ Scratch. This man has made a career out of blasting EDM for stoned rich kids at rave parties around the world. In fact, he'll be headlining next year's Coachella show (in other words, he'll be blasting EDM to even more stoned rich kids). #Like #Follow #DJScratch2016

It is two CAS, but one entry, of course, since they come as a double pack !

Also, not an entry, but i did some other music themed CAS including this impersonation of Elvis, referred to by Brucege in previous contest. Here a quick bonus shot of him :

I can't think of many things more terrifying than a music shop ghost. Anyways, one thing that stands out about her design is all that gold in contrast to the rest of her design. Maybe she was the wife of the original music shop owner, who spent all his hard-earned money on bling. Her mind and body decomposing over the years while her beloved jewelry shined bright as the day they were bought. Or maybe she's a mostly harmless witch with metallurgical inclinations and an abundant supply of brass instruments in the music shop to play around with. Whatever her story, tell us about it when you work up the courage to open that locked door!

Why ever would I need to create my own backstories when you do such a brilliant job of creating them for me? :P

The idea behind the gold was that she experimented with alchemy. And as you pointed out, I did want to give the impression that she was decomposing by showing very little of her discoloured skin. As for her story, I'm gonna say that she was captured practising alchemy, but due to her unwillingness to create gold for the English Churches, they prosecuted her for witchcraft and locked her away to die alone with her gold. However, before leaving this world she successfully created the Elixir of Life within the very cell that imprisoned her. And so she remains, to this day, eternally waiting in silence for that door to be unlocked...


Though since she haunts a music shop, I can't tell you how tempted I am to tweak the design enough to make her look like a rock star and edit the story to explain her transformation from alchemist to guitarist.
 
new member, wanted to bump this thread because I thought honestly this was a great idea for a thread.
Welcome new member! A few things though:

Bumping is against the rules, so please be aware of this.
This thread was last posted in on Weds, so doesn't really need bumping anyways :)

But thanks :D I hope you enjoy your stay~
 
Is anyone else going to submit an entry? Two submissions isn't exactly a fierce competition.
