"It has been established that persons who have recently died have been returning to life and committing acts of murder. A widespread investigation of funeral homes, morgues, and hospitals has concluded that the unburied dead have been returning to life and seeking human victims. It's hard for us here to be reporting this to you, but it does seem to be a fact."

So my work begins

"When there's no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth."

A picture of the mess...umm er the "lab", it was not so clean about a half hour before I took this pic!
Image

Picture of new collar bones, full arm attached, roughed out neck, and partial head (just stuck on for picture).
Image
No his arm isn't to long it just looks funny in the picture, bad angle.

Until next time.....

Wow, that's pretty freaky already. If a duct tape zombie is that scary, I can only imagine how many kids will be brought to tears when you're done with it.

Boy, that really looks like it's taking a lot of time and effort. Maybe you should go into movie prop making. :wink:

I like seeing how people turn ordinary things into scary stuff, it's cool.

I would love to make props for movies and use non-household items to make them :wink:

Its not that it takes "alot" of time, its just finding a spare hour here and there to even work on it. I don't even think I have put in three hours on it.

Thanks everyone for the kind words, I do it for the kiddies (because they are easier to catch and the meat is leaner!)
Thats a joke, I dont want to upset anybody. I just have a silly sense of humor, I love childern...









they're delicious. j/k

I was checking out the links for the other sites participating in the Prize Pit and found this photo on the Killer Pumpkins website that made me think of you... (it's titled "Waiting for the Children")

Not sure if I can post the pic here so just in case Ryan has to remove it, here's the link:
