Results of the Halloween 2017 Contest
Our first ever themed competition was aptly set to Halloween, and what a treat it was!
First up let's look at the honorable mentions, then the winners...
Honorable Mentions
Seriously creepy! I had to read the comments to discover the girl was a photo, but it was blended perfectly with the CG background. Great work!
Look at that detail! There's no story to this render, but as a standalone character render it's great. Really fantastic sculpting work!
Now that's a complex scene! I love how much effort you put into texturing everything and building out the scene. The composition is a little conflicted, but other than it's fantastic. Well done Chelsea!
3rd Prize
Whoa! Getting some serious Stranger Things vibes from this, and that's a good thing! Detail wise it's simple, but the composition and lighting makes it super effective. Really well done Eric!
2nd Prize
At first glance this render looks quite simple, but at full-size you can appreciate the details in both the foreground and that "surprising" background! Really great scene and well deserving of 2nd place!
1st Prize
What a stunning environment! It's easily readable, detailed and well textured. I love that you combined two IPs to create something new as well (The Shining with HP Lovecraft). This is well deserving of first prize. Well done!
To everyone else that entered, thank you for your hard work! It was a pleasure - and a little unsettling - to see all of your images. Hope to see you in future competitions!
