Both were excellent but had to give the nod to @bries84 simply because I could not stand Freddy Krueger after the first Nightmare on Elm Street movie. They ruined a great concept.

These are great!

I won't be able to contribute to this contest but definitely count me in on the next one. Looking forward to the long holiday. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

I'm not familiar at all with the character, but here's a down and dirty version of Thorfinn.

Next up: It's almost Halloween, so let's see a drawing of ANY Disney princess encountering Ghostface from the Scream movie franchise.

Here's one possible future interpretation of Dejah, who is launched as a Marvel public domain character and immediately finds herself immersed in X-men lore as both the host of the phoenix and the new Queen of the Technarchy in the fictional year of 5055 CE.

Good call. I was swamped these last few weeks, but I should be able to post something by this coming Saturday.

I'm thinking something like Dejah Thoris in the 41st century. Given how civilization tends to devolve in most science fiction/fantasy "end of days" stories, I'll have to figure out a way to distinguish her future appearance from the past. The woman hates clothes, so it will be a challenge.

Congratz @uncanny_kat. Excellent artwork, everyone!

@ramsillustrations: Apologies for the delayed response.

I have been using the Sketchbook app on the tablet with the occasional assist from Corel Painter on the PC. I have looked at Dex and a couple of other apps for the tablet, but haven't really given them a fair chance to win me over. I used Sketchbook on the iPads, so familiarity wins out for now. Now that I know that Samsung won't be coming out with anything larger than the S8 Ultra (the recently released S9 Ultra is the same size), I'll delve into some of the other apps that are out there eventually.

Figured I'd have a little fun with the original version of Batgirl, albeit slightly grown-up and hyperviolent.

"Come on in. Don't mind the blood spatter, boys."

@ramsillustrations: No worries, man. I prefer to forego the protectors. I never used one with any of my iPads and I doubt I'll ever get one for the Samsung.

Whenever I miss tactile feedback in my creative process, I just pick up the old pencil and paper and go to town. the traditional tools are still my bread and butter. No matter how advanced technology gets, I doubt they'll ever be able to reproduce how it feels for me to draw with a .03 or .04 mechanical pencil on parchment or newsprint paper. Or for that matter a 4B graphite lead on construction paper. Different feel, different results, and creatively, a different flow altogether.

That said, lately I've been on the Samsung almost exclusively. I doubt that I'll ever learn all of the various brushes and effects, but it won't be for lack of trying. I did a couple of rough sketches for the latest Batgirl Showdown while doing laundry earlier that I will probably post this weekend. No doubt about it, the tablet is a keeper!

Didn't realize there were so many Batgirls. Ok, count me in!
