This pic did not get enough consensus in the Image Suggestion thread. Other ideas?

I suggested that image because someone suggested Wizards for the image but I couldn't find anything particularly good. Looking back, it is difficult to see all the lines when the salient characteristics (e.g. the skeleton arm on the baby on the right) are colored the same as everything else in the image.

Here are some other possibilities, from Norse Mythology.

  • Hel and Idunn: [1]
  • Hel: [2]

Either of 3 is better than OP.

I prefer 3.2 by a substantial margin. 3.1 makes me think more of a Heaven And Hell juxtaposition.

Could something like this work? It's by Photoshop artist Thiago Storino.

Actually, yeah, [tup] 11. It is really good. There are some living creatures on the "death" side, but they're animals commonly associated with death. I think this strengthens the image, because the trope isn't so literal as to exclude living creatures (so long as they represent death).

The clock's up and we've got enough consensus for 7/11, so it's up and tagged. Locking up.
