(R'OSITY, let us EDIT)

Blazer,

For what it is worth, I just voted for your image. :)

Why?
Because out of the lot, I thought the composition was excellent, the mood was excellent, the lighting was excellent and it said "Samhain" to me.
A lot of the images - IMHO - completely missed the point. The theme was Halloween - not Horror.

Yes, we associate Halloween with all things spooky, but it still has to say "Halloween" to me to get my vote, not just "I can render a ghoul/vampire/skeleton (insert monster of choice)."

I'll post the link to Blazer's image here:

Some others that came pretty darn close to getting my vote were:
Aquiring Ingredients - Calum5 - http://www.renderosity.com/contest.ez?contest_id=235&ShowQuestion=7081
This was the second choice. I sat there for AGES staring at both trying to make up my mind lol. I really love that one, it does say Halloween to me - but not as much as Blazer's does. (Go figure) I wish we could vote for our top 3!
Goblin Jamboree - Mutedbanshee - http://www.renderosity.com/contest.ez?contest_id=235&ShowQuestion=6771
I love the idea and I really like the mood and composition of it.

I really like the idea, and the execution of this image.

I love the image! The character and the composition of this are truly outstanding - but it didn't say "Halloween" to me. :)

Yes.. open it - Redhawk - http://www.renderosity.com/contest.ez?contest_id=235&ShowQuestion=6921
Very very nice image, well done, well lit, well rendered, well postworked but.... same as above, it scraped in just below saying "Halloween" to me.

I just think the image is very well done

I ADORE the look on her face! It's very halloweeny but whatever she's sitting in... spoiled it a bit for me. :)

I could go on and ON here, there are sooo many I liked and which caught my eye.
Loved Wyvern7's spiderweb thingy... Skydancer's witch... Gawd...

How dare you people make me CHOOSE?!?!

Anyway, I felt that maybe it would have been nice to be able to leave comments on the images we like, but didn't vote for, so that the artist knows why we didn't vote for it despite liking the image a lot.
