Zombified. My current obsession.

[WildWon]

At work, we are slow. I'm a graphic designer. The managers said "Photoshop some shit." I mean, thats a paraphrase, but we are to learn new PS abilities.

I love zombies. I've seen tons of Zombie tuts running round these Nets. And i've decided to put them to good use.

Heres my first attempt.

Before & After of Un-dead-cle Sam.

And then i decided to move onto a REAL photo.
And i know its poor form to put up an in-the-work style art piece, but alas, i just want to know what more i should do on this photo. It needs *something* and i've done a few more things, but i can't quite put my finger on it.

So w/out further ado

How about a bloody tear in the t-shirt? Or chunks of hair falling/fallen out? Seeing as how them 2 things are untouched.

Yes yes, good play

The shirt was up on the docket for SOMETHING to be done to it, so some mess and gore there would be good.

Didn't think of removing hair. Done and done! Thanks

(and to anyone who might be curious, a full blown pic will be posted when completed. Also, i'll be randomly picking other photos from the board with which to eff around, so if you have any major objection to being zombified, lemme know, otherwise, you're all fair game... if you've posted a picture here somewhere

I love the gory holes on Toni

But, IMO, the cracked skin looks like marble, not rotten. Try to decrease the number of cracks a bit, make them less uniform and give the skin a yellowish/greenish tone, with patches of white. That's TOTALLY zombie!

In reality, the cracks are a cracked pavement image set to multiply and erased edges to match the shape of flesh. I'm going to change the entire color of that layer to make it a different color, and make the "cracks" more "veiny." Thanks for the input

Oh, he will be full on undead by the time i'm done w/ him.

Also, he's the least likely to be pissed about a photo being edited. So it was a quick grab on my part, just to eff around w/ some zombie effects. Just building up my PS stats (already have a +5 due to some natural 20s i've rolled at work with some jobs i've completed. Want to up it a bit more.)

Oh, and i'm a fucking geek.
