Whoa....pretty impressive! I think it may need to be thinned out a little more, but other then that it's awesome.

Not bad.

The shadows look a bit dark and solid, but that could just be the digitized image.

Keep at it, practice makes improvement, and you're off to a good start.

Wow.. hehe... Now just show up at work like that, tell 'em you were in a horrible accident, and ask if you can have a couple months off with pay.

It is pretty good... The colors seem kinda strange, but it might just be the picture.

I think it's a great start. There are a few minor things as mentioned, but I think it is overall a good make-up. I could see the use of layered colors for translucency effects. I think you have skill. Keep at it.

looks very good.

a suggestion - for texture, while your building it up, you can use corn meal, crushed corn flakes, or the like. this would be put on over the tissue layer, and before the final colors.

you might try an additional layer of clear laytex, and pull it away aroun the darkest areas. sort of skin pulling away from the rotting areas.

keep it up, it's really good

Its a poloroid photo, It has a lot of texture....i think corn flakes would look cheesy. I dont really know what color "zombies" are so whats wrong with mine?

Thanks,

Man, I wish you lived near me, I could try and convince you to do the zombies for my movie. I'm still working at getting it right, and seeing pics of people doing the same thing sure helps.

Crazy Clayer,

About that Zombie..... I don't like it... Man, I've been to your website and I know what you can do. You are amazingly talented. Way beyond your years.. You definately have the gift but now it's up to you to use it Dude.. Stretch your imagination and come up with some of your own astounding vision. From what I've seen of your work, you could become the next Rick Baker... I'm not kidding. But I'll tall ya, the thing that seperates the two gods of makeup, Rick Baker and Rob Bottin (no I didn't forget Dick Smith.. He is the God of gods)and other great artists that end up working for them is that those two always stretch to come up with bigger and better ways to make the makeup more interesting and real.. You have to be like that...

This is just one guys opinion..

Morpher guy, this was not supposed to be a creative detailed zombie...i did as much as I could with tissues and latex, I myself am more into creatures than zombies this is for my friends movie. The backround zombies in the movie,I am sculpting other ones that will be detailed and much better.

Thanks for you opinion,
Peter Murphy

He's sculpting more detailed zombies to make appliances for zombies that won't be in the background.
