Call for Artists: Halloween Skull Mask Project

Pages: 1 23 replies

This isn't really a Tiki project, but there's already a few Tiki artists lined up to participate. Anyway, I thought it wouldn't hurt to run the idea by this creative pool of artists here at Tiki Central.

Call for Artists: Halloween Skull Mask Project

For each day during this year's 31 Days of Halloween Madness, my Tiki Chris blog will feature a custom skull mask designed by a different artist. The idea is simple: 31 artists take the same basic skull image and customize it. Then from the 1st through the 31st of October, one customized image will be posted per day. Contributing artists will be credited along with a link to their websites and a brief sentence or two about them.

**The only requirements are as follows:

  1. The outline of the mask is not to be altered,
  2. The dotted line and punch holes are to remain visible, and
  3. The dimensions of the image are to remain the same as the original JPEG.

Deadline for submission is September 1, 2007.**

Interested in contributing?
Shoot me a PM by August 1, 2007 for more info and to receive your skull mask template.

Here's a link to some posts from 2006's 31 Days of Halloween Madness:

eleven days till my skull is up!

Hey, this seems like cool place to post cool Halloween stuff.

Here's my October Read this year. Part way through. Great so far....
Small midwestern town where the teen aged boys have to go out and face a knife welding jack-o-lantern headed scarecrow in some weird Halloween night ritual.

Only nine more days till my "skull" is up!

You wanna hear a scary story for Halloween?

Check out the "Internet radio" station at http://www.live365.com/stations/radiobones , look for "old time Horror" radio. They are playing their "Halloween Program" which is made up a old radio shows all about, or with, Halloween in them. Actually that may cost like $5 or something to sign up for.

So for free you can check out podcasts of horror stories at...
