Rhapsodies

“Gift” is another prompt I spent too much time overthinking. Or at least trying to think trying to think of a Halloween twist to it.

I spent way to much time going with either a red pill/blue pill or do not open the box trope but couldn’t think of a good way to execute it in one image. Finally, I thought of doing a monster receiving a gift. After that, it was a matter of choosing which monster.

I hadn’t done vampires yet this year.

I broke a few of my usual rules on this one. Since I thought any background would distract on this one I didn’t use my usual border and since I wanted a solid black for Count Orlok’s robes I didn’t do any hatching.

Still, I like how this came out.
