Bob, Imelda and Pedro. Undead at last!

Woo!

I finally got over my lazy, grumpy, unmotivated slump and got some work done! Lots of work. I think the 3 1/2 cups of delicious coffee I had for breakfast are still going to work on me! I just hope I'm asleep before I crash!

Not only did I finish Imelda, but I "branded" Pedro, and finally took some pictures of Bob.

(You know, when it's written down it doesn't look like much, but it was actually about 2 solid hours of work)

I also watched Clerks 2, which I've been meaning to do for quite a while now. I like to "watch" something while I work. I like the background noise. The best is something that ends in about 20 minutes or so (like an episode of Futurama or a nice LP on vinyl) so I have a reminder to get up and stretch out a little!

Bob was the very first zombie I made about a week ago (so far I still like him the best)



The red thingy is his intestines!



I think he is quite handsome...for the undead.




A close-up of the gore...


I like super-saturated, ultra contrasty pictures.
I think it's because I watch way too many cartoons.

Pedro was the next one I assembled (all of the zombies' parts -except Bob's- were made in a "batch" and assembled later). I had a lot of problems with Pedro...for some reason he just didn't want to work. But we sorted things out eventually.


His face is all messy 'cause he just ate.



A butt shot, intended to show the "branding"....not close enough.

The "branding" close-up, blurred for modesty.

Arrrgh! Braiiiins!!

Imelda is the latest, the one I started and finished this evening. It's not as obvious in the pictures, but I like how the yarn I used for her hair kinda looks like dreads!


Lovely dread-y hair.


I also like the extreme angles. And I love that our new apartment has these great spotlights in the kitchen!


....and this is the last thing you see before you get eaten. Oooo...scary!


Imelda was tired from all the picture-taking and decided to lie down.
Huh, I didn't even know Zombies could get tired.


Aaaaaa!

I was awesome to get something of importance accomplished this week. I add the qualifier "of importance" because I did  go to my job every day, so it's necessary to distinguish between the things I accomplished at my job and the actual work I did. I don't like my job....but I digress.

I hope to start a couple new projects soon, but I'm lacking some pretty necessary supplies, so in the mean time I'll be posting some pics of stuff I've already completed.

I'm off to drink some nice hot chocolate and then to bed!
