Halloween Art Showcase 2018

This year, I’ve got several spooktacular Halloween pics done, and I thought it’d be fun to showcase them here.

In order from left to right: Cow-Moo-Ween Barmaid (starring Annabel), Skeleton Roses (starring Caroline), and Mythics&Bizzare Halloween Remake (starring Annabel, Caroline, and Evanna).

********

Cow-Moo-Ween Barmaid

First on this spooktacular list is Annabel in her festive Cow-Moo-Ween (common tongue = Halloween) Barmaid Costume. It’s a beautiful Oktoberfest inspired dress. She’s running the bar at Morgan’s Mansion this year, what better costume than a cute barmaid!

Annabel here is an old OC from my DeviantArt series, Mythics&Bizzare (a series about a strange shopping complex that sells mystical and enchanted items that have bizarre side effects like transformation)

You can check out more Mythics&Bizzare on my DA.

Skeleton Roses

Second on the list is Caroline in a Day of the Dead inspired costume. This originally started out as a Chameleon Colored pic.

I changed it up in the digital version to add more effects and change up the coloring.

For the digital version:

The colors were redone, and the makeup was altered to look more natural. There less white in the final coloring for the skeleton makeup. I decided to fade her natural fur color to a ghostly pale. I figured this made her look more spirit-like, kinda like she’s a festive ghost.

For the background, I went for the candle light look, with floating candles hovering like wandering spirits. Took me quite a while to complete the entire drawing. Overall, I think Caroline has a wonderfully cute and spooky look! Perfect for the month of Halloween!!!

Last on the the list is a remake of an pic I made years ago.

The original drawing was posted on my DeviantArt’s Mythics&Bizzare Series. I wanted to revisit this drawing and give it a fresh new look.

The original was mainly flats with some shading, with the cast of Annabel (LEFT), Caroline (MIDDLE), and Angel the Leopard (RIGHT). It was a showcase of some of the costumes at the Mythics&Bizzare Stores.

In the remake, I wanted more vibrant colors with my more recent drawing style. Most of the original cast is here, except for Angel. I wanted this pic to contain some of the main faces of the series, so Evanna the Tigrent stepped in for Angel.

Characters and their Costumes:
1. in the center is Caroline showing off her favorite Costume: Masquerade Dress Combo. It simple yet classy

2. to the left is Anabel Showing off her Modern Rancher Outfit, Cowtaur Style. Great for those long days in the pasture.

3. to the right is Evanna the Tigrent in her Forest Fairy Outfit. Mystically Cute!

Howl-O-Ween Moonlight Merchant

A funny Halloween Short about a strange merchant that sells mystical/echanted items on Halloween Night.

Welcome to Moonlight Trinkets and Remedies! Jessica’s little shop for all your enchanted charms, potions, and other spell crafting needs.

Been down on your luck or can’t seem to find your muse? Jessica’s charms offer a wide variety of effects that bring good luck or inspiration. Need a new look? Her potions grant glamour effects (changes one’s appearance) ranging from simple changes to full body reconstruction.

Most of her charms and potions are temporary…well…except the more potent ones that only are sold full moon nights. The moon seems to change her magic’s effects, making it harder to undo any effects or transformations. But, she swears she hasn’t had any terrible outcomes from these Moonlight products…at least not that she’s aware of.

Howl-O…Halloween night is very particular for her store. It enhances magical properties of all her charms and potions (even more so if it’s a full moon night). It’s also the night she offers some psychic services (she has a real knack for Paw…err…Palm reading).

***** ,-,-, ^;..;^ ,-,-, *****
All customers must sign an agreement waver before using any of the charms or potions from the store.  All sales are final and non-refundable.  Customers may purchase a reversal remedy in the case of permanent effects of a potion (cure may take a week to go into effect).

She accepts copper, gold, and other valuables as trade, EXCEPT SILVER!!!

She’s HIGHLY allergic for some reason…ESPECIALLY on a FULL MOON NIGHT!

I made this character a couple of years ago on Deviantart, and thought it be fun to share it here. The character herself I based off some of my previous werewolf drawings, and drew some inspiration from the strange fortune teller from Courage the Cowardly Dog (you know, the green fox dog with the offset different colored eyes who always says, “he’s the stupid one.” lol)

Autumn’s Happy HalloWine-een

Happy Halloween!

Autumn, the dragon sorceress, is back at another party, drinking her favorite potion, Witch’s Brew. She’s a bit tipsy again, and, “Tis Having a Happy HalloWine-een!”

Autumn is one of my old OCs I drew years ago for halloween. She supposively was going to a halloween party, and transformed into a dragon hybrid after drinking a strange potion, Witch’s Brew (a potion that causes costume transformations).

You can check out my old pic of her here http://anbumsw.deviantart.com/art/Autumn-s-Happy-HalloWine-een-643139932

Thrill of the Night

Bailey forgot there was a full moon out, and well…POOF! Her curse kicked in. She’s now covered in wolf hair and her costume is in tatters. Could things be any worse? Actually, no…not really. Cause instead of freaking out over her sudden transformation, she decided to take advantage of it. Originally she was a pop dancer, but now she’s a pop dancing werewolf. A true Thrill of the Night! XD

This pic was just a fun little thing I wanted to do for this Halloween. It’s a play off of Two of Michael Jackson’s famous songs Thriller and Smooth Criminal (The costume and style of the pic). Hope you all have a Great Halloween!!!

Basking in the Lunar Light

A pic I was working on for Halloween 2014.
This is Luna, a vampire reaper. She’s not like other vampires. She doesn’t lure victims to drink their blood. In fact she doesn’t drink blood. Instead she absorbs the dark essence of evil spirits. Using her scythe, BatWing, she reaps the essence of dark beings to sustain her vampire powers.

Bewitching Chimera Sketch

Just another Halloween Sketch. She’s a Chimera, composed of several different animals animals and mythical creatures (Deer, Bat, Demon, Antelope, and Dragon). Her Name…Rose.

I plan on coloring some of these sketches soon and adding some more storylines behind RealmLocke, once I get a break from my class projects. Until then, I’m gonna be busy getting my class work done.

Howling Good Moonlight Stroll (Sketch)

Just a pic I was working on in the spirit of Halloween.

This is Bailey, a cute, friendly werewolf. Don’t worry she won’t bite. She loves meeting new people and is very social. She especially loves going on long walks at night in the full moonlight. It just sounds so fun and romantic to her. However, she forgets she’s a werewolf, and the full moon is what triggers the transformation.

She tends forget to tell guys she’s dating that “little” detail. It’s not because she fears they will freak out or call her crazy. It’s because she seriously forgets. She just loves having so much fun and gets caught up in it that she forgets. No wonder guys looked shocked when they see her in the full moon.

Sorry I haven’t been posting much lately. My class schedule has me very busy, but I promise to have some more stuff posted soon.
