    Yay! :D

    I dunno - I like Thonda's idea.. Or for the purposes of the challenge and time-frame - one deadly sin? And keep to seven as a larger project?

    I'd like to thank my agent... :D

    I feel like only the quirkiness of my portrait(s) won out of the better substance of some of the others, but hey I'll take it!

    As for the next challenge, the deadly sins sounds great. Loads of scope there.
    Though the old deadly sins might not be so depressing as the new ones.

    But, thanks for the votes, peeps.

    You should be proud, well done.

    Here's a list of the original 'seven deadly sins', and how the church feels you should be rewarded for each:

    Pride - Broken on the wheel
    Envy - Put in freezing water
    Gluttony - Forced to eat rats, toads, and snakes
    Lust - Smothered in fire and brimstone
    Anger - Dismembered alive
    Greed - Put in cauldrons of boiling oil
    Sloth - Thrown in snake pits

    And the list of modern sins the nazi pope has added, albeit without a specific punishment:

    Environmental pollution
    Genetic manipulation
    Accumulating excessive wealth
    Inflicting poverty
    Drug trafficking and consumption
    Morally debatable experiments
    Violation of fundamental rights of human nature

    Game on :cool:
