Description
Finally, after much harassing and having to promise her much mayhem in thefuture, SparklyDeath has agreed to allow me to chronicle a night in her seemingly endless life. I had to promise, however, not to divulge the locations of any of her sleeping sanctuaries. The environment you see in each situation is her castle, well-known and familiar, but never the place she rests. This is so the few emote OCs out there who dislike vampires/zombies cannot harm her when she is most vulnerable. I found that to be an understandable request, really.Wake Up
Since Death is a bit of an "early" riser, she wanted me to begin her "day" with a shot of her observing a sunset, with an epic feel to the moment. She even put on her nicest cape and did her best to look majestic. Sadly, I was working with her back so her poignant expression is lost here. Carl was shambling about, moaning and walking to nowhere in particular. And Gor is a ham and managed to weasel his way in to the moment.
Censored
iGor requested that I censor this part of Death's evening activities...and after witnessing just what takes place, I was happy to oblige! She and Carl have some "bonding" time...and we shall leave it that.
Down Time
After some "intense" bonding with a zombie, Death likes to relax with a nice book and a warm glass of blood (that may or may not have acquired during said "bonding" time...which means it was
Sleep
The night is done. Dawn has arrived and Death is snoozing this one night in her big castle, with iGor keeping watch over her to ensure her safety. It's been a big night for the vamp and she needs her beauty sleep.

My entry for the third, and final, round of #EmoteOCs 's Emoticon OC Pageant .
I was really afraid I wouldn't get this done in time! It didn't help that I lost all motivation to pixel about a week ago.
I can't think of anything else I want to even say about this.

I like that you turned this to a night in the life
The cape looks great on her nice job.
Good idea to censored the second panel.
The rest two panels are well done but not to interesting.

I'd love it if the censored scene was Death nursing a baby dear back to health.

Does she have to maintain a fearsome reputation?
It would be funny if she's in the closet about such things

She maintains the terrible reputation, but I think she has a soft spot....waaaaaaaaaaay down inside.

So deep that she has time to flip up a censored screen just as it's about to come to the surface?

Censored is because of all that blood, yes? I would think that vampires wouldn't drink zombie blood for the same reason they don't drink vampire blood, it's all dead blood and whatnot.
I love the documentary feel you gave your comments, nicely done. The pixelling is perfect. Don't worry about it.

All the blood, violence, and goreness. Death and Carl ganged up on the purple guy from the third box, he died in the second.
They are bad.
Thanks! I was afraid afterwards it would seem a little lame...but Death is less me and more a project? Does that make sense?

He's not you, he's a separate character, totally. It gave a nice feeling of detachment, but also like you're his friend or colleague. I liked the part about asking permission.
Poor little emote. How'd they catch him?

And SparklyDeath used vampire hypnotizing powers to slow the purple guy down...and Carl took his bounce muscle. They are vicious.

I so love how you managed to show subtle bits in the censored part. Effective. And, I, too, love your reference of "night"--which of course is obvious, after you think about it.
The pixelling on the sunset it amazing. I love all the little details, like the shutters in the last panel and the steam of sunlight coming it. Very nice work.
Boy, this competition really has brought out some amazing entries. It's gonna be a hard time voting!

When I was planning it out originally, I was going to do her going to bed, sleeping, getting up, etc. but I felt like I was losing a panel in there. So then I thought, "I should just go with her getting up..." and the "night" reference became obvious.
I worked so hard on the sunset and got so frustrated as the similar colors were making my eyes want to bleed! But it was the little details that I knew had to go a long way in this piece because I was running short on time and couldn't do the massive pixelling others had done.
The entries are soooo awesome. I don't envy your job of judging at all.

I love the way you've adapted it to 'A night in the life'. Its so fitting.
And the whole censored idea works pretty well too xD

SparklyDest In reply to Synfull [2011-07-23 19:41:44 +0000 UTC]
I was really excited when I thought about the censored panel. It was a way to convey "gruesome" without actually doing gruesome.
Thank you!
