Fair enough, Hitler in my opinion is one of the most widely spread symbols of fear for todays people. He represents both persecution and tyrany. Two things a lot of people still fear today.

Well these are some thoughts about your amazing pictures!
To value them I've considered the technic, how much they are closed to the contest theme, the idea behind the pics and the feelings they communicate to me.

2more: your pic it's graphically almost perfect, it's a pleasure looking at it! But it has some defects... the first is that the "menacing shadow" is not so easily noticeble (I've some problems in seeing it even now that I know that there is... well, it exists, doesn't it? )
The second problem is that little afraid alien: apart form his body posture, it doesn't communicate me "fear"... it could seem just a bit lonely and bored (maybe it's just about me...)

Busses: well, you have to practice a bit in drawing, but the idea was not so bad... you should improve that pic with some effects and drawing it better!
We all got the idea that fear is something that come out just from our brain, but the pic is so "poor" that hardly communicates feelings. Anyway, you are on the right way, just keep on practicing k:

Modeus: Your pic scares me
That's very well drawn... that "dr. death" coming out from the shadow (which could even seems like a tomb) is so evocative! And as i said already, I fear the needles, so, for that syringe, you'll get a bonus in my valutation

moogle: as you said, you've made just a copy&paste work, but you made it well! And the result is... terrifying fear!
Maybe you could have blended better the mouth/nose on the left (the cut on the left of the nose seems too neat...).

Scarface: your pic is very interesting! you blended very well the images and it makes me feel fear
The borken glass effect is a good touch! The only bad things are the eye you used (a real eye should be really better) and the font you used (but this is just a personal opinion...)

Sean: Another good work by Sean k: All is well blended, that red particular is a genius touch and that pic bring us a very important message
It seems almost a professional propaganda pic... if we don't go to see the "handmade" particular on the Hitler hat :bleh:

swiss: a good photo and some well used effects make a very good pic! You've added those inscriptions perfectly!
But I dislike the way you've cutted the image added over the eye: that ruins your beautyful picture
Anyway, the pic is very evocative k:

TheGiantMidgit: Everytime I am very impressed about what you're able to make just with Paint! As you said, you used an old pic, so it doesn't fit perfectly the theme of the fear... but it goes not so far
The only problem is the expression of that.. uh.. "guy"... Which seems more astonished than terrifyed or menacing...
I find just amazing the border you drawn k:

So, now it's time to have a winner! I've thought alot and I've changed so many times my decision... but finally, the winner is: Modeus :Brain:
But I have to say to the other participants that you all made very good pics! My compliments!

Congrats Modeus!!

And, I think it would be great if we had a Hall of Fame topic with each month's winner and his/her winner picture

?What do you say?

That bloody well hurt.

Congratulations Modeus.

As some beefy Austrian guy once said

"I'll be back"
