Sorry for the late posting of this contest, school and pole vault practice has kept me away all day, so without further adeu:

We all know Halloween is coming up, so prepare yourselves for a SPOOKY contest! The challenge is to create the scariest Usagi themed DIY project you can think of, be it origami, artwork, a costume for a plush or statue, or a paper plate mask. Whatever item you think to make, post it on the thread.

The most creative and intuitive creation will win a 9x12(or at least I think that's the size, better wait if you plan on framing it.) black and white illustration of Usagi and Jotaro fighting Groo and Rufferto in a rainstorm. All entries will also be awarded a small 3x3(Again, unsure) black and white sketch card of a random Usagi character of my choosing.

I have no idea how long it will take me to finish these commissions, as I am still backed up from my last contest and other projects I am working on. I am more than happy to draw all of this, but it may be December or early January before any prizes arrive.

Whew! It's been a busy week so I finally had time to tackle this DIY project. For my piece, I decided to create an Usagi finger-puppet using the instructions from Tom Angleberger on page 95 of The Sakai Project. As I was about to post my picture of it, I reread the instructions for this contest and realized it was supposed to be scary. Well, my terrible paperfolding skills are scary, but I decided to turn it into a zombie Usagi just to make it a little bit scarier, so here it is.

Thanks! My work schedule out here in Kuwait is crazy (today looks like it'll be a 15-hour day :shock:), so I haven't had a chance to even think about a trivia question.
