This is what my other work in progress was for. It's pretty straightforward digital college with a lot of texture work to give it a throwback movie poster feel. Pretty happy with how it all came together. Oh, also, this is my Halloween plan.

Black textured paoer-like background with crease marks as if it had been folded. In the center is a pale human face with dark hair, wide bloodshot eyes, and a slightly open mouth exposing small pointy teeth. Orange text from top to bottom reads "Shadowland Lancaster's Black Mass. A Halloween Celebration and Costume Bsll. Saturday October 31 2026. DJs Stygian and Dave Ghoul. Playing dark alternative dance music. Gogo by Legs Akimbo and Nebula Nova. 8pm-12am. $10 (advance tickets at Zoetropolis.com). 21+ up with ID. Zoetropolis Cinema. 112 N. Water St. Lancaster, Pa. "
