this was both the first and the creepiest thing I could come up with. It's the mask that plauge doctors wore whenever there was a plague outbreak in medeival to renaissance Europe. The things scare the bugeebus out of me.

It looks like something out of Poe's mind x) Very Creepy, that nose gives me the chills. :( *Claps* I want to see it finished!!!

Lol. I can't help it, but every time I look at this I see that scene in Python's Holy Grail ..."bring out ya dead, bring out ya dead"...and all that. Can you imagine what those days must have smelled like all the time?? I would have worn a mask, too. Good idea here.

Meh, I'm not going to be able to finish this in time for the end of the contest but I am going to finish it. I like everything except his doublet. If anyone has any suggestions as to what I should do with it, please tell me. ^__^;

This is as good as I can get it for right now. >__<
The background needs work. . . obviously. In case you were wondering, it's supposed to be London in 1662. . . and he's standing under the arches of a church or other such large, stoney, building.
It's not a contest winner but I had fun. ^__^

P.S. For Davinci "I'm not dead yet! I feel happy! I feel like taking a walk."
And thanks for the comments, everyone. ^.~

I've seen those masks before but I never knew what they were. Always thought they were creepy and now I know why. ;) This is good. :D

Oh, Finished! It ended looking great. The colouring is nice and the background is wonderful x) It has the atmosphere of the era, cloudy. Creeeeeepy...
