Done today. It's been done before, I know, and it's also been done far better, but I just wanted to try it.

Hiya there! It's me, in December of 2008. Thank so much to ^RockstarVanity for making this a DD! Let me make a few things clear to those who have disagreements regarding my technique, the feature, or just gore in general:

-Notice the date? It's seriously 2 years old. I had barely recieved my first SLR at the time and was starting to experiment. Forgive me if the lighting/effects/colors/whatever isn't perfect. I can safely say that I would know how to make this a better image now. So could you please give my 2-year-old photography self a break? Thank you.

-I'm very sorry if you don't like blood. But not really. Because there's plenty of artwork that I don't like either...the difference between you and me is that I know better than to exercise lip over such matters. Why not spend the time it takes to write your negative-and-not-constructive-in-the-least comment looking for pictures you actually do like? I promise that we'll both appreciate it.

-To those asking what the point is...there isn't one. And to those who say this is cliche, yeah, I know. So let me let you in on something: THIS PICTURE IS OLD. I was just starting photography! I wasn't looking for originality or a point, I was just exploring. 'Kay? I assure you that I would do it differently now.

Thank you to all who actually had something positive to say! You rock. Thank you all!!

AutoSlaughter by ~absence-is-steel has been on dA for a while but I really want to share it with a wider audience. It's a blood bath (pun intended) of epic proportions that leaves me desperately wanting to know what horrors are going on out of shot. ( Featured by `RockstarVanity )
:iconporings-4-love:
the pain of it all....instead of the shallow gore you would feel in the normal bloody pics...you feel the tragedy of it...the pain...the sadness....
it's mixed emotions on this pic...very well done!!

Just a quick message to inform you that your piece has been featured in the A, B, C's of Horror under the letter "D". D is for drain, after all.
