 I made a model of a monster out of clay. I am not a terribly gifted sculpture, so I was hoping I would be judged on my creativity. Then I set up the scene and took a series of photo's depicting a monster getting mashed.

expected critiques
okay we know I am not an expert sculpture
lighting could use a little work
not enough DOP the rolling pin could be in a little better focus.

Okay, I have seriously gone back and forth on pulling this one out. I just don't know how well recieved it is going to be. I personally think it has great creativity but I wish I knew how to shoot this type of thing better. Here is hoping not to get brown.

I didn't vote this challenge either. I really like this - because it is so cute and because of the comic strip type of narration.

Cute stuff ! The last frame would probably have benefitted from being shot from a higher angle, to show more how the little guy has flattened and spread out. This is a good take on the challenge theme.
