Competition: Shadows and Horrors (graphics)

Finished
Shadows and Horrors (graphics)

Something upon Moraband is awakening the darkest fears and most primal spectres which shake our members to their very cores. Thing skitter in the dark unseen, horrors shift beneath the sands, eyes peer from the shadows, and fear grips both Force-Sensitives and Non-Force-sensitives alike. The unease of the Warhost is evident as well. It is a time of unease. Using any digital or traditional media, depict what frightens your character most.


Images must be at least 500x500 pixels. This standard aside, grading will be done by the official Herald Graphics Grading Rubric for this competition.

All artwork must be original work of the artist in question and submissions must be in one of the following formats: .jpg, .png, .gif.

This competition grants bonus Clusters of Graphite per the guidelines on the wiki page, in addition to the standard one (1) granted. Entries will be reviewed by the judges, with scoring being averaged to come to a consensus for the purposes of placement. This aside, have fun!

Growing up I was told the bòcan (roughly translates into Bogeyman in galactic standard), would come get me if I did not behave.

This monster would cloak itself in shadows and darkness only its red glowing eyes visible and two yellowed tusks could be seen.

When it opened its mouth, a long slavering tongue would come out from between mismatched and jagged teeth. Followed by the smell of its putrid breath.

The sound of its black claws scraping on the floor, wall or window would terrify any that heard them.

For they knew, their painful and bloody death was not far off.

"Rashan Twilight" depicts Kel Rasha, Locke's adopted home city within the Orian System, burning as Iron Legion star destroyers bombard it.

Locke's greatest fear is the loss of his home at the hands of Darth Pravus.

(Note: Strangely, it appears sideways here, but appears properly on my desktop.)
