Ha! The set-up for this picture must have taken awhile. Great composition! Nicely done.

only comment is that I can see some of the sticky paper on the nails. Other than that, great shot, and great way to express the phobia!

One of my top picks. I wish the white pieces weren't showing on the forehead but outstanding idea and execution none the less. Good Luck!

Sometimes it's easy to tell when a photograph will be on the front page after the challenge. This is one of those times. Excellent work.

Definitely very creative. One of my personal favourites out of all the 100+ pictures for this challenge. I gave you an 8 though. It's not easy to bring fear out through the eyes. To me the look gives more of a surprised vibe rather than fear. So I took half a point off there. Another half off for seeing the cellar tape sticking out of the pins/nails. The one point was taken off because of not entirely showing the fear. As in if you did the same for the body, sticking more pins/nails on the neck and shoulder, I'd certainly given it a 9 or more. Great job though. The composition itself is spot on. I'm hoping you get a ribbon, when I say that I hope I didn't just jinx you.

Amazing shot, im only nitpicking here but there are a few tacks where you can see the tape

Really nice! Almost like hellraiser. I like the emotion on the face, My only flaw I see is the sticky tape off some of the nails on the forehead, easly fixed had this been advanced editing!
