    Ahm.. Vlad Tepes, also known as Draculea or Dracula (like his father before him) was the first victim of press, the first known example of malicious misinformation. The stories that Stoker based his novel on were created as revenge by German and Hungarian merchants that were cut off from the trade route with the Turkish empire. Also Mathias Corvin ("the raven" - corb is the Romanian word for raven, also in Latin is called "Corvus") received money from the Pope in Vatican to help Vlad in his crusade against the Muslim Empire. He did no such thing, instead he married a beautiful Polish princess with that money, and left Vlad to fight the Turks alone. And when Vlad came for help, he imprisoned him and invented all those cruel stories that mixed facts with a lot of sick fiction. It was a fact that Vlad executed thieves and traitors but he did not killed women or children. And the impaling method he learned from the Turks. He was held captive in the Turkish Empire from his infancy.

    To cut a long story short:the historical VLAD DRACULEA was not a villain but a fearless fighter for Christianity and a fair and also merciless ruler that made crime rates almost zero during his reign.. It would be a sensible thing to replace the thumbnail of this challenge with a more fitting image. Stalin's, Hitler`s or Elizbeth Bathory`s horrific deeds were fact, not fiction, for example.
    Thanks.

    Popolo - yes, go ahead. It has to be a villain and it has to be a bust - any interpretations are welcome [as long as their decent ]

    edit - about Vlad - yes we have established that - the reason his picture was in the top bar was a technical hiccup - we couldn't take it down

        Hello everyone. I want create one of the most mysterious killer. It is Jack the ripper. Jack was not a human. He was the extraterrestrial android, that came to Earth get some human materials for his masters. His objective was get information about human anatomy and phisiology, and make some test. All captured data he send to space ship, that was on Earth orbit. After the successful completion of his mission he was destroyed. And some idea about letter. The letter was written by one insane man. He believed that Jack the Ripper was the messenger of God, that came to our world punish humanity. One night he seen how ripper came from the sky. After that he loses his mind, and try complicate the capture the God's angel by law enforcement agencies. Maybe this is not amazing idea, but this is my character conception. I hope you like it and sorry for grammar.

              http://www.bowendesigns.com/Reposito...6___Source.jpg
              to add some more interest to the character?

                I really like the stylized approach you've chosen. One thing that's very characteristic about the origina man are the deep set eyes. Yours are a bit boulging atm - perhaps making them less so would give him a bit more sinister look Keep going
