Ho ho ho kiddies, that's right, it's back!

Since this is the first one in oh I don't know, forever, I'm going to pick a quite cliche and easy theme, Halloween

Easy huh?

Here's the catch(es)
No recolours You can't submit a basic recolour, if you do, it'll simply be disqualified. If your entry is disqualified under this pretense, you can resubmit a new, legitimate entry.

No sprite theft Pretty obvious, use your own work, if you use someone elses work and it comes to light, you will be disqualified, no questions asked and no chance to resubmit.

Your entry can be an edit, scratch, mix, heavy edit, large pixel art, animation (although it has to use sprites) or an old piece that is relevant (obviously not your entry from the 2006 Halloween contest)

Normally there's two threads, one for discussion, and one for submitting entries, however I feel discussion about the contest should just be held in the Pixel Art showcase/discussion thread that we already have.

Anyone who comes below 4th won't have their "rating" publicly displayed, but if they want, they can PM me and I'll tell them privately.

Deadline is 29th October 2008

I am judging.

Glad to see another monthly contest in motion. I decided to put a fun twist into the Halloween theme by using two of my favourite characters, Cassidy and Butch. :D

Time taken: 4 hours.
Sketched and coloured on MS Paint.

If you don't get the joke behind this piece, you should watch this.

Dance, Carmen! ☆★

Shiharu having already won this contest or not, I'll still enter. Made this fake specifically for this contest; I rather like it.


It's called Hallospire, and is known as the "spirit of halloween." It lurks in dark places and feeds on fear. Their mating season is towards the end of october, and at night the skies are filled with their mating calls and the sound of bones rattling.
I was originally thinking that it'd be a pure-dark type, but with the wings it might in fact be dark/flying or the hideously cliché dark/dragon. What have you. I may make a prevo.

EDIT: updated sprite. =D
