I had some trouble with the next item on the Replacement Prize list, which PapaKrok requested for winning Character Contest 51. It was "spooky graveyard background", and this is what I came up with (now in Background-Standard):

Part of the problem is, if you get too complicated then the two-color limit really hits you hard. So I settled on doing something more abstract that hopefully will serve as a good backdrop for adding in other spooky bits to create the exact scene you want.

Update: Here's the Replacement Prize list:

I just added the following item to Background-WordBalloons:

And the last three of these snake-like bits to Mouth-Standard as BakerDoc's prize for winning Character Contest 56:

Enjoy!

I've just posted B. Clouser's prize for winning Caption Contest 91, a realistic Human Heart:

It's now available in Insignia-Nature, at the very end.

I admit I'm not quite sure what the original requester (whoever that was) meant by "mean eyes", but here's my take on it, now available in Eyes-Standard (refresh your browser cache if you don't see it):

That's the last of the Top Ten placers on the original Replacement Prize vote, leaving just PapaKrok's "next item up" which is the spooky graveyard.

I just uploaded the following new items to the Mouth-Standard set in HM3 (clear your browser cache if you don't see them):

I wanted to make sure I got a good "clenched teeth" one, so I put in three. As well as most of the suggestions in the last thread, so thank you for those.

I just added a Khopesh in three parts -- complete, just the blade, just the hilt -- to the HM3 ItemRight-BladesTwo set. Enjoy! If that's the right word for a weapon of death.

I've just updated Tops-MaleStandard (clear your browser cache if it doesn't show up) with the following items from the Replacement Prize list:

There was only a call for one Lab Coat, but I saw the diagonal one while getting reference and loved it too much not to throw it in.

After the jump I'll post the latest version of that list so you can see where we stand.

Two more prizes from the Great Replacement Prize list, the patchwork coat (with sleeves and without) and the gentleman's waistcoat live in Tops-MaleStandard (clear your browser cache if they don't show):

I'll probably do the Lab Coat and Shirt Tied Under the Bust next since I've already got Tops open.

Enjoy!

The last of Imp's "Four items from the replacement prize list" award for taking top honors in Friday Night Fights 2 was "Facial Wrinkles". It's now done and available in "Head-Male-Faces":

The top image is the set of wrinkles, covering the corners of the eyes; bags under the eyes; cheeks; really big bags under the eyes; mouth to nose crease; jawline; chin / lower lip; upper lip; and forehead. The bottom image is a full-tricked-out old dude face. For the bilateral items like crows' feet and cheeks, I only did half the face, so you can further customize it how you like by turning "Multiples" on for the Head slot and using the Flip button.

Hope you like 'em! This should close out the suite of items for Imp. I think we all owe him thanks for giving up his grand prize for those the community had earlier voted on, very noble of you sir.

Item 3 for Imp's Friday Night Fights prize of four items from the prize replacement list is now live in Headgear-Military:

Enjoy!

Update: Per request, here's the current list of replacement prizes.

In addition to these, I need to do:

51 Alien Nation PapaKrok Next on the Replacement Prize list
52 Sagittarius Lime "Something Japanese" - oni mask?
53 Bad Guy Blue Blazer Owen Head
FNF2 Consolation 1 AJW Japanese Oni guy

I haven't heard about prizes for quite a few of the Caption Contests, including Black Griffin (77), Galactic Ketchup (82), whoever won #83, Larkin (84), Bael (85), and Doomed Pixel (87).
