Sketch a costume by hand or on the computer. If you’re extra creative, make that costume and model it in a photograph.
Design a desktop image or wallpaper.
Decorate a cake, bake some cookies, compose a menu, build an edible haunted house—put your culinary skills to the task.
Decorate your home in a Guild Wars theme.
Find your own way to bring a Halloween twist to Guild Wars, or a Guild Wars twist to Halloween.
Emphasis added.
If there is one thing I do around here, it is creating a concept and bringing it to life.
As for bringing a “Guild Wars twist to Halloween”, well, that’s where one might argue against me. Yes, Guild Wars has something to do with it, but I’m also pulling inspiration from South African tribes, and Plains Indians nations respective mythologies while making everything flow with the intended rest of the yard as well.
But, with snow coming this weekend, I expect to begin work next week, and have Project Nightfall up and running 10/17, weather permitting. As a teaser, here is some Guild Wars screens, and some work in progress photos in slideshow format.
