Update: We were able to negotiate a one week extension for this contest. As specified in the original post, if any participant would like to make changes or add onto their submission, they're more than welcomed to do so. Loving many of the entries so far and cannot wait to feature them all with hopefully more to come!
1. It must be a real world setting!
2. You may change the lighting of the photo, but you may not add new items/effects onto the photo (Let me know if you'd like me to clarify further on this, I can provide more examples too if needed)
3. 4 would be correct. You can post Illium and Cadena on Twitter, then again on the forum.
Ahoy, Maplers! The votes from our panel of judges are in and our winners of the Halloween fashion have been selected.
Unlike previous months, October's contest required a Halloween twist and many of our contestants showed us the horrors (which is actually good in this case!) See the results of the scoring below and a congratz to our winners~
"At the foot of the mountains in Zipangu amidst the endless fog, they say that restless spirits wander the dimly lit forest. Locals say that one spirit in particular appears as a woman with alluring beauty. However, you mustn't chase her, for she'll lead you further and further into the forest and you too shall become a restless spirit, forever wandering the woods."
A very convincing Halloween ghost look inspired by a traditional Japanese horror folktale takes the grand prize!
Runner Ups
Sparklee:
"ZOIKS!" Not only is Sparklee's cosplay of Velma from Scooby-Doo accurate, but it's a perfect concept for October's theme contest!
lim0ne:
Quite unsettling! There's just something about little girls and dolls that evokes an ominous feeling. lim0ne shows us that looks can clearly be deceiving. Just imagine her climbing a ladder (looks cute from behind) then reaching the top to see that face!!!
DreamWeaver:
A ghostly look that tells of a ghastly story. DreamWeaver not only shows us a theme perfect for Halloween, but tells us the tale behind this haunted image. See their story here
Thank you to everyone who participated in October's Look of the Month contest and don't be discouraged if you didn't win!
If you did not win this month's contest, we'd love to see your entry again within this upcoming month!
Winners are NOT permitted to enter the same look in future Look of the Month contests, however, this rule does not apply for those who have yet to hold a winning look (Runner Up does not count as a winning look)
We'll be sending out the prizes before 11/14/2017, please contact us if you do not receive your Maple Points by the specified date.
