3. Keep to the theme that has been set.
4. You may modify or replace your image until the deadline! 
5. You may not use any stocks outside of self-made pictures and drawings.

Could be wrong, if so feel free to exclude it.

(In case it matters, though I haven't sworn off the use of unpublished plugins, this doesn't use any.)

Congratulations to all the monster creators! All entries were ugly enough to win. 

[Red ochre]

^ Agreed. Congratulations to all four contestants on the high quality!
Well done Maximilian for the win and thanks for running things Chimay.

[Maximilian]

Thank you very much to all voters (and/or fans), congrats and greetings to everyone that took part, and thanks again to chimay for hosting the contest one more time

Also special thanks to MJW who recently made me realize the usefulness and convenience of difference masks, and also for his HSV Eraser plugin with which I have experimented a number of times while working on these and other horrible creatures!

 

This time around I had to work substantially, but it turned out enjoyable and enriching!

[Seerose]

    Maximilian and MJW!   For the hosting thank you chimay 12321.  

[Maximilian]

Thanks a lot, Seerose!
