Yes indeed.... 'tis the month of scary... Halloween, witches, warlocks, vampires, werewolves and ghosts... and skinners. All manner of scary creatures.
Not being all that young anymore (especially today...
)... my desktop isn't all that scarey. But I love Karen's skins (k10low3). They show imagination and very considerable skill.
So, Zombie attack it is. Brain eating, staggering zombies to scare you and keep you from sleeping at night!
Trick or treats! Money or eats!
But don't forget your skin's, Wall's. CFX's etc. url's... or I.D. won't be putting candy in your plunder bag.

It's called Alien Tako Sashimi by Psychopulse. I've also got my eye on his DJ wallpaper for when you finish the Techno Mi Windowblind, I think if the blind recolours well, they'll make a freakin' sweet combination.
I like his wallpapers. Quite a few seem to depict kickass women with large sweater puppies, which is also a freakin' sweet combination in my opinion.
PapaNinja aka Serge Birault is an amazing artist he made a couple illustrations and even tuts

The 'skinning' is the plane, yet again.
Did a lot of cleanup of the graphics....miss-aligned as is often the case ...then stopped and got stuck into a decent looking 'pit for it. That took a while. This is a very old model so is 'skun' with only 4 images, unlike some that have hundreds...and higher res to boot.
Then there's hacking the model to modify reflective surfaces [shine] [currently has none].
If anyone's curious...it's an Avro 730 Vigilant ...was to be the successor to the Vulcan - think SR71 only earlier...and faster ... stillborn by bureaucracy. Poor little Dash 8-100 putting along at 320mph and I 'drop in' at Mach 3.2 ....![]()
Skinning these things are a lot of fun because each one is different [almost]... certainly the skin 'mapping' seems unique to each model....![]()

Forgot....it's a 'spooky' desktop because a few seconds from 'now' the hapless passengers in the Dash are gonna be hit by serious jetwash, lose their lunches and probably their plane's wings....![]()
