Clever idea, I wish I couldn't see the tape though.

nice set up
Had me wondering for a minute until I realized I could just see the tape - good luck :)

I hate shots like this, but you have the "comforter" and the "peeper"... you've even got some perv underssing. These crayons have come to life! 6

I love the concept of the photo - I love crayola crayons! The main thing that takes it away for me is that I can see the tape holding the crayons - maybe next time try either pins or even small nails, stuck through the bottom of a piece of poster board, then stick the crayon on top of that - this is what I did with crayola markers once and it worked well to hold them up. Good job and good luck!

It is a good concept. I only wished all standing crayons wore black, and the background would not be so blindingly white, the whole scene is a bit too cheerful for a funeral :).

I like this one. The standing crayons' expressions are a little malevolent. Perhaps they had something to do with this? 9

Good idea for the challenge, I like it but the jury is still out on the border I just can't see how it enhances the image.

The blue is losing his top!

I would never thought that crayons could be dramatic, but these definitely are, in a way neoclassic paintings are: the physical movement is there, but there are no facial expressions to match it.
Good work!

Good idea. I like it, but could use a bit more 'pop' to it... Brighter colors IMO.

How fun is this! Colors seem a bit desaturated, otherwise a great shot.

Very funny. The title is perfect.
the colours and contrast seem a little weak considering the subjects but this gets 8/10 from me.
