Looks very awesome! Let's see that step by step!

1 Black out your model's teeth


step 1 by hypnodean, on Flickr

Premade silicone teeth and on skin curing silicone precolored and used to adhere teeth, build up "rip away" for mouth. Have model suck on black food color to color tongue....


step2 by hypnodean, on Flickr


Fairly crude shadows where you want things to look sunken in later.


step3 by hypnodean, on Flickr

Add Veins and reddish brown squiggles over whole pattern to start t add a layer of deep rot.


step4 by hypnodean, on Flickr

Next squiglly pattern of off white over that, covering more. HEavier where highlights would be, slightly lighter over shadows.


step5 by hypnodean, on Flickr

Add a fleshy, sickly toned mottled blotchy over mist over the entire thing to take it down.


step6 by hypnodean, on Flickr

Have model post to show back


step6a by hypnodean, on Flickr

Smile pretty for the camera


step6b by hypnodean, on Flickr

Hand painted details on teeth and finger nails.

Note- this is all aibrushed with temptu dura. 3 hours or so start to finish. Including mangly bit on leg you can't see in pictures.

And, my zombie won aprize. Woo Hoo!

Congrats! It's really gross (in a good sense, you know)

There is only one thing wrong with the zombie. He obviously has a good health plan, with eyeglass coverage.

Awesomely gross, Dean!

ewwwwwww...yucky Zombie..lol..very cool.

Great Job. Awesome looking

Wow, very well done!

Congrats on your prize, you certainly earned it!

Cool beans, Dean!!!!!!!!

I think it is great that there are shows with awards for pet zombies.
They have dogs shows, too.
Bravo for winning a prize for your award-winning pet zombie.
Is he paper trained?
Does he do tricks?
How do they actually judge an award winning zombie?
Does it have anything to do with his sunny personality?
