      @smceccarelli Yes, the tipo da spiaggia would have a necklace, and undoubtably a necklace tan (necklace green?)! An the three-eyed sunglasses--I think you've nailed it!

      Just curious; How is "fuori come un balcone" different? Maybe that person knows he's eccentric? ("Out there" like a balcony. I love Italian!)

        @lauraa Aha! I don’t miss Italy but I do miss some of the expressions of the Italian language! “Fuori come un balcone” would be more like “batshit crazy” - if you pardon me. Somebody who is completely nuts. It´s an extension of “fuori di testa” - literally “out of your mind”.

          @smceccarelli I am loving all of these. there is a consistency but also quite a bit of variety. the little details (like the candies in the brain-purse) really bring it to life. I'm a "with" cloak voter.

          I use Procreate-and haven't had any problems crashing--YET (fingers crossed)--how big are the files you're making and that you think contribute to the crashing?

            @burvantill I like your name suggestions. Language in the 21rst century is evolving so quickly and working hard to keep ahead of zany criticism.

              @smceccarelli I have no idea about the follower-selection (#socialmediainept)-but so far the octopus is my favorite. She looks so incredibly 3d and the textures are amazing.

                @susan-marks My iPad has been crashing on a variety of apps since the beginning - mostly on ProCreate though. In hindsight, I should have brought it back and got a new one: now the guarantee has expired since a long time, so it makes no sense. I´ll budget for a new one sometime in a year or two. I believe it has to do with memory allocation - if I shut down everything (including the network) things go a lot smoother. The biggest files are about 8000 px across, with 30 layers or so. These ones are mostly tiny (2000 x 2000 px and 3-5 layers) so they are reasonably stable

                  No 13...and last! Little-Brother-Watching-You...

                  And here they are all together in a group shot. I’ll need to work on lighting and atmospheric perspective to bring them together better, but...tomorrow!

                        @smceccarelli Oh, thanks for the heads up! didn't realize it was quite so seriously insulting! I thought fuori in that context meant something more like eccentric--"sticks out" rather than "out of his mind." This is the problem with living in a place where you aren't a native speaker. Good thing I haven't used it on many of my friends! 😂

                          @smceccarelli I like the way his teeth are hatch marks, like he's counting something. I literally counted the posts to make sure this wasn't day 9! Also the lighting is very nice in this one.

                          P.S. the comment is in regards to the pumpkin-pillar.

                                  My ipad is new (an ipad pro, the smaller one)-and I purchased it pretty much for this purpose this spring. So like all IOS devices, they are very happy when they are very new. And my files are quite a bit smaller. I do love it!

                                    And the last touch on this project - now officially finished (though I may do a higher res version of this group image - I only set it up at 12 inches across for some reason...probably because it was born on the iPad).
                                    Here is the group shot for Halloween night on dark background.
                                    Have a great Halloween, everyone!

                                      @smceccarelli They look SO AMAZING all together on the blue background! I kind of want them to show up at my door and I also kind of don't. 😂😍 I love it!

                                            @burvantill Thank you for your nice note on Twitter! I was just thinking of prints, actually. I´ve been in the process of setting up an Etsy shop for months, but I still haven’t come round to actually putting it live...I think I have an inner demon saying things like: “printer jamming.....unexpected color shifts....endless trips to the post office....lost packages....bad reviews.....” 😉
