Lovely work Sasha! She looks so haunted! So lost, looks right out of the episode. I agree, she looks so lost. That is the perfect description. She looks so wonderful. The before and after picture of the eyes is just remarkable. It's amazing what you are able to do!

Ditto all on the eyes, Sasha.. so much emotion there! Wow! Also, incredible hair sculpt! I am wondering what happened to Spike on the original bust LOL Lovely work as ever! I own your Buffy coming out of the Grave custom.. with the bulging eyes. one of my fave Buffy Halloween displays!! FX had all 3 Buffy Halloween episodes on this AM back to back. It was so great to revisit them in order!

Hey Guys! Sorry the posting has been a bit erratic. My broadband is dead at home and likely to be so until early November! And it's tricky to post from work. So bear with me, please, the entries might go on past 31st! Here are two more from after8... 28th October - Meet the Hidden Princess'Halloween' Buffy: "Meet the Hidden Princess"

They are just adorable!! So glad you were able to do the whole set! Really nicely done...great design and execution. Love Willow's 2 costumes!!! How long does it take you do to them? I would think shopping for the fabric etc must be time consuming. Kudos!

I would think shopping for the fabric etc must be time consuming. Kudos! Thanks! Shopping for the felt isn't as time consuming as you'd think. I get all of my felt from Michael's (North American craft store chain). I work a second job at a mall on the weekends, so whenever I need a colour I just go on my break since I'm already there. Finding the RIGHT colour can be the problem sometimes! I got lucky with finding a leopard print for Cordy, and I was trying to find a bit darker orange for Willow but I settled for regular orange and now I kind of like the colour better (very Halloween-y). The ghost fabric is just an old t-shirt and a marker Using what I have! Buffy took the longest to cut and sew! I made her first, so after I was over the hump of how to cut and sew them efficiently it was much smoother sailing from there. I sew them sporadically (lunch hour, after work, before work, the rare day off), but they usually don't take that long (a day to cut, another couple to sew). I wanted to do more, but I thought I should save making a 'Fear, Itself' set for next year.

What he said! You can submit until 31st but I might not be able to post them until early November. A few more entries from Customizer452.... 30th October - The Rake"The Rake" Since I already did the Slenderman I had to make a figure of The Rake to go with him. LOL. About the same scale as the Selnderman figure. Hope everyone like him 30th October - Halloween Street"Halloween Street" So this figure is like a small street in any town on Halloween night. This is the first piece in a much larger custom I'm working on. Once it is all finished I will have a whole block of streets, with many different kids in different costumes, being chased by monsters. I wanted all the kids to be inspired by my friends. The little Witch in this custom is based off of one of my friends from this forum. The Clown/Jester, is based off on of my past Halloween costumes. I wanted this little witch to see this clown and drop her candy and run in fear. I really wanted this custom to feel cartoonish and over the top. Kind of like a child's fantasy.
Hope every one like this one!

31st October - Halloween Street: Featring Young Sam and DeanSo this figure goes with my other Halloween street custom. This is like the next block over LOL. This challenge inspired me to add Sam and Dean to this new custom. It worked out really well because I'm trying to make each block dedicated to people who are special to me, and my aunt/godmother loves Supernatural so I was like I can dedicate this part of the custom to her! I wanted this to be kind of like is young Dean and Young Sam tried to be normal and go trick or Treating and of course it went badly. They were attacked by a evil jack-o-lantern monster, and Dean being Dean he cut off its head. They are not at all episode specific, more along the lines of fan fiction specific LOL. I did want to make the figures at the time period before Sam hit his adult height. I made the Young Dean out of a Cato from Hunger Games and the Sam from a Rue from Hunger Games. By the time I got to the monster I was almost out of clay so I made the body out of paper mache and liquid latex, and the pumpkin I made out of a bouncy ball and what little clay I had left LOL Hope everyone like this one!

Wow, I love these customs.. Customizer452! Extremely creative, the street scenes bring back so many memories of trick or treating! I love the Jester one.. But, Sam and Dean are so cool! Makes you wonder whether Dean would have taken Sam out? Hmmm.. but definitely with a weapon! LOL. The likeness of Dean is one of the best I've seen! And Sam is so cute.. the hair sculpt is very well done especially. Great painting and detailing on all of your customs.
This is going to be a very hard decision for me. This challenge was slow to get going.. just like me this month. But, it has picked up speed! Halloween is probably my fave holiday. But, my month of October, has been rocky. So, seeing these customs, especially as we get closer to the big day and beyond have made me get in the spirit! Thank you customizers! I had decided mid month to give more than one Halloween Custom prize. I think I may do three... Will talk to Sash and let her announce after all the entries are in ... November. Stay tuned!

Wow! Customizer452, so creative! I don't know what the Rake is (I'm a little scared to look him up!), but he is terribly creepy!!!

msperoxideluv I wasn't sure if Dean would take him Trick R Treating, but I figured it would be a good chance for a Fan Fiction LOL Maybe Sam went out on his own and Dean had to save him or something dumb like that LOL after8 I'm not really sure what exactly the Rake is ether, Just another creepypasta guy. LOL gc Thank you!

Here are the last entries, from Customizer452...
31st October - Jeri and the D-Reaper
"Jeri and the D-Reaper" From Digimon Tamers. So I really wanted to make this set for awhile. It's one of my favorite story lines of all times. I love how the D-Reaper took on Jeri's image and distorted it. It was one of the scariest things I saw as a child. The D-Reaper was also a metaphor for Jeri's depression. I made both figures from wire and clay!
Here is just the D-Reaper with her puddle of D-Reaperyness.
Hope everyone like them.
31st October - Shadow Heatless - Kingdom Hearts
"Shadow Heartless" from Kingdom Hearts
So I really wanted to make some a these creepy guys to go with my Kingdom Hearts figures. I wanted to make like a group of them each in different poses that way I could make them ready to fight.
This one is one of the Shadows coming out of it's like flat shadow form to it's 3d form.
This one was just for fun, and cause it's Halloween. Here are the Shadow figures fighting with Halloween Town Sora made by Play Arts.
Hope everyone likes them!
