13 Days of Halloween
-
@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 of course a little hint to the scariest story of all times....Coraline.
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 i love this! Nice group of characters you have here
-
@smceccarelli would love to see this group show up in my door asking for candy at the halloween night.
-
@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.
-
Its looks amazing all together, each one is so awesome. Great Job!
-
@smceccarelli Love them all, but #8 and #13 are my favorites!
-
@smceccarelli The grouping is so nice. Great work!
-
@smceccarelli
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! -
@smceccarelli Wow! This turned out GREAT! Are you going to make a product out of this project?

@smceccarelli This looks awesome! My favorites are the robot and the skeleton.
-
@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.....”
-
@smceccarelli Ah! The perils of a good imagination. Let us know if/when it goes live. I would love to get a print of the Halloween robot.
