Including the town of Bon Bon itself. Come to think of it, this is the mont where Scarlett is now the main character since the new comic about her will be released.

And my thoughts: .......Nothing

Anyway, maybe I should draw a new PBB pic right now. But it will be Halloween soon, and I don't know what to draw. So any good ideas?

Well, the comic cast in costume is always a good choice. You've already drawn most of them as humans... hmm. Here's a crazy idea, how about Sakura dressed up as a pirate (the humor of the situation being that she's a kunoichi)?

Good choice. Anything more?

*shrug* Scarlet in a nun's habit?

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 15 Feb 2007 Posts: 4668

How about the rarely seen but much loved Edelweiss as the Sphinx? Or Daisy as a Native American? I could keep going if you need more ideas, duo. And I'm sure there are more than just one or two people here who would'nt mind volunteering. I certainly would.

One wonders, if we wanted to fit all the usual costumes, who would be in what? Theres the werewolf, the vampire, the frankenstein, a mummy, a ghost...Who would play them?

I recall on Vixen they painted jack'o'lanterns on one another.

Well, Loucille might get drafted as Frankenstein's monster. Razz

Werewolves always seem to not quite fit when you're already furry... And Scarlett makes anyone else who dresses like a vampire look a little silly. I bet Dorian could pull off the vampire look, though. I bet one or two of the girls would make a fine ghost or banshee, though. It's easy to be (un)dead no matter what you are.

And if you rummage through mythical creatures to find a nice variety. Unicorns are easy if you're a horse. You and a couple friends might work together to try a chimera. And a lion just needs to put on a bird mask and some wings to be a fine griffin. Very Happy

Wonderful ideas my dear.

Ah of coarse. That way, Drake's character can dress up to what he originally was, a pegasus.

Sounds like Tursi's will play the part of the griffon this year.

Mystic and I, as well as any others, can join us in dressing in Egyptian attire and being the Egyptian pantheon of Gods.

I am prepearing some Haloween treat, but that's a secret Wink

But what should I wear this Halloween? I can't stick myself in a modern-day costume, It should be in 1800's

EDIT: Wish Vanessa can think of a Halloween Special...

That maybe a good idea too. Well I guess a Halloween party sounds nice too. But not in Mr. Blue's house or he'll kill us like flies.

OR maybe this: Silbia will tell us a good scary story.

too bad vampires already taken... its what i usually do. can't wait to see what our artists come up with

At a past con I bought some sweets, a bag of licorice and a marshmellow...
so I got the idea for a double halloween pin-up that will see Scarlett in a
licorice style and Mary in a marshmellow style, with sweets baskets full
with the two specialties!
About Duo's idea, it's very interesting, it's not obligatory to follow the
style of the 1800 for your fan arts, your fan art with the girl in a sailor
suit was brilliant! Therefore feel free to dress the characters in any way
you like, you can also do Anime cosplay!
Anyway, here's how I'd see a connection between the characters and the
monsters:
Mary: a ghost or banshee;
Violet: a witch;
Betty: the Queen of Hearts with an hatchet to "off heads";
William: a vampire;
Scarlett: a sexy she-devil.

Here's a fun Halloween game to play with your friends this year...

PEEP JOUSTING!!!

For those of you that are unfamiliar with this sport, don't worry. It's easy to play and costs very little. Go to your local grocery store and buy yourself a bag of marshmellow Peeps. I prefer to get one bag of black, Halloween Peeps and one bag of any other color. You will also need a box of toothpicks. Take your purchases home and open them. Stick one toothpick in the front of each Peep. It can be either in the middle or off to the side, but make sure the exposed ends are equal length and facing forward. You now have your Peep Knights! Stick two Peep Knights in your microwave equally spaced from the center and facing one another. Close the door and set your microwave to two minutes (adjust as needed). Watch your Peeps grow in power and inflate with anger towards the other. The first Peep to make it's opponent pop is to be declared the winner, given a special ceremony (which can involve just about anything you like) then it should be eaten with honors. Repeat the performance as many times as desired.

Now you know the secrets of the ancient game of Peep Jousting. Enjoy your Halloween!

All of your ideas are good. Especially Xebby-kun and Vanessa's. Especially the cosplay monsters idea.

Thanks. I can use this for Betty's costume.

anyone else have "were painting the roses red" stuck in their head right now?

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 27 Jul 2005 Posts: 2568

Actually, I've had Rush's "Tom Sawyer" stuck in my head for days.

I can see Scarlett dressed up in Licorice though. Kinda reminds me of the "Lord of Licorice" from Candyland though.

I can see Mary as a Banshee. For it would probably look similar to the picture of her trapped in the ice. Now who's gonna put their hair up and be Frankenstein's bride? Laughing

*grins, pulling on some rubber gloves with a loud SNAP, putting on some goggles*

I got my own part to play in that classic story, Labrn. Now, I wonder when we're gonna have a proper thunderstorm..? Cool

Littlefox can do that. But she's not here yet. *Heard a music from an old Organ playing*

Oh,sorry! That was me on the old organ. Wink

Halloween update:

Violet in a witch costume is in process. Currently in lineart:

Although I need some good color references in her clothes.

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 15 Feb 2007 Posts: 4668

Very well done, duo, looking good so far. I don't think you'll go wrong with classic witch colors: red, purple, black, green, etc. Foxonian, I think your organ is a little out of tune. Dr. Fuchs, keep yourself clear of stray lighting bolts. The same goes for you, Jinx. Bestile, I don't think Mary is in costume yet, though if you give me a moment I'll change into my Phantom of the Opera costume.

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 09 Jan 2004 Posts: 552

Oh, wait 'til you see my monster costume! It's the scariest ever!

Mmmm... Maybe I should tone it down, and go instead with another, less scary mask... I've been suggested to go dressed as a weird, unbelievable creature with a duck's bill, a beaver's tail, a poison spur on the ankles and webbed hands and feet...
*checks in the mirror*
D'OH!
Very Happy
