#octobit day 31: Halloween Special
October 31st 2022 was a bit of a day from hell for me. I was burned out and unable to think straight so I decided that rather than making a low effort piece on the final day I'd take a break and work on it in the morning. I'm glad I did.
It's over, I'm pretty happy with my work over all this month. I'll be posting everything together in a little while, and maybe some thoughts on the month.

#octobit day 30: Sci Fi
In my heart, the #spaceship design from Wallace and Gromit's Grand Day Out is still one of the ultimates. A true classic.

#octobit day 29: Daylight Horror
Look around you: Strex.
Look inside you: Strex.
Go to sleep: Strex.
Believe in a smiling god.
StrexCorp. It is everything.

#octobit day 27: Body Horror
A riff on my 'grindstone' human/computer hybrid sketch. Fairly happy with the result.

#octobit day 26: Zombie Apocalypse
As a graphic design graduate I couldn't resist a nod to the classic Romero poster

#octobit day 25: Slasher
I wend for the dragon summoning ritual from the first #discworld game. I don't know why but it's always been an image that really stuck with me.

#octobit day 24: Phobias
Another low-ish effort one, but I'm caught up now! I find the structure of these seed pods fascinating, as well as the reaction they create in people. I'm not tropophobic myself though, I'm pretty sure.

#octobit day 23: Ancient Deity
Not particularly happy with this one. A representation of #ormagöden from #brütallegend.

#octobit day 22: Doppelganger
Something about the final shot of #thedescent appealed to me in the context of #doppelganger. I don't know how well it represents the prompt, and it's a little abstract. But I like it.

#octobit day 21: Evil Spirits
When searching 'evil spirits' I got a lot of biblical results, so I thought I'd go for something that muddies the water a bit and choose #baphomet. The 'evil' is definitely a matter of perspective.

#octobit day 20: Sleep Paralysis
Felt a little ambitious but I attempted Ripley from Alien asleep in her hypersleep chamber, a kind of sleep paralysis!

#octobit day 19: Necrorealism
I didn't feel like I could do justice to truly understanding the russian necrorealist movement (having only just heard of it!), so instead I went for something that had the 'vibe' of the word. It's one of the gristle guns from #scorn

#octobit day 18: Urban Fantasy
Stretching the interpretation a little today with the Death of Rats from Terry Pratchett's #discworld. The rats mostly live in the cities, which kinda make it #urbanfantasy

#octobit day 15: Historical Figure
I chose Tesla. Nikola Tesla. The version from Super Science Friends.
You need to watch Super Science Friends by #TinmanCreative

Jr Koopa from #papermario64 is the best villain.

#octobit day 12: Table-Turning
I promise the next one will be higher effort, but I couldn't get this specific kind of #tableturning out of my head! XD
