IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
Although this scene doesnt really appear to be of the 'Horror' nature, i would point out one thing to the critic or incliend to be!

Think about yourself in this situation, now that would be pretty horific for anyone! Heha.

Anyway we are in a darkened area of some dungeon, or perhaps even a crypt! The woman of
the hour seems to have struck upon a spot of bother in her adventures.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:
This is pretty obvious really. I posed the woman in Poser, exported her, imported into
the scene you see before yourself and slapped a few textures here and there.

BTW 3 textures used, which totalled a small 1.02Mb.

1 for the walls and floor
1 for the blood
1 for the large opening in her stomach.

So why was a nude woman running around a dungeon ???

PLOT LINE:
A couple of adventurers where captured by a small group of bandits during a raid on a town. A young lady by the name of Emma and her husband Neal were tortured often while the town was in poltical discussion for the release of them. After one of the brigands raped his wife, Neal was completly enraged. He tried to kill a guard, but failed and was killed.

Weeks had passed and Emma's condition to the hostile people became a lot worse, to the point of complete madness. It seemed she never would be freed by the town now.

She completly surprissed a bandit bring her food one night, and managed to flee her cell.
Emma ran down many halls and turnned many corners but could not find any way out to the 
surface. She finally got to a darkened area of this underground lair and suddenly stopped, she heard voices. The guards where gaining on her. She quickly ran into a smallish room but didnt see the trap that was to take her life. As her foot made contact with the middle preasure plate three spikes shot forth from the ground.

Well this is my first entry into the comp. It took me a good 8 months to pretty much go on this idea. I saw it done in Diablo (people sticking off all sorts of spikes). So there you have it!

Be nice to a first timer wont you ? :)
