The 16th image for the 2023 Halloween Countdown
Now we get to a Stranger Things reference! I do love Stranger Things and I really loved the character Eddie Munson!
The 16th prompt for the Halloween Countdown 2023 was "Skull". I think the prompt from yesterday for "Strangers" had me thinking a lot about Stranger Things. Grimskull for Genesis 8 Male by RawArt immediately came to mind. I love this guy!
And all I could think of was Eddie in the Upside Down playing Metallica! So a mashup was born!
I originally wanted a wider shot, but found I needed to get closure for the feeling to catch hold. Once I had the framing, then it was time for the lighting and Iray preview.
While I couldn't quite capture the feeling of being in the Upside Down, I like the end result.
Then some tweaking in Photoshop and Lightroom ended up with the final post to Instagram.
"Master of puppets, I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master, master
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master, master"
"Most Metal Ever!!!!"
Enjoy your screams!!
