The clothing will be the most interesting part of this sculpt,im not sure what to put on her as yet .She is a Meth addict so id have to check that out in the design.

Anais

Hahaha love the idea.
For the clothing: will need to be something skimpy for sure. Greasy hair, messed up teeth...

Question: is that Jason Momoa on the top left corner?? What's he doing here!

absorbentghost

Man ure sick , i like it,that idea would go great with what i'm currently doing.Picking clothes is difficult sometimes.

Working on the vest and other props at the moment,more will come .though the character is on 50% done it self,lots of exploration to go still.Let me know what u guys thing of what the clothing should be.Clothing like i said is hard to figure out some times.

Stiffler

I love the concept, but your gal is a little too pretty and supple so far. Try adding sunken facial features and sores. Meth heads look pretty messed up. Try some cheap-o, 2nd-hand store outfits rather than high couture goth wear.
Some reference for inspiration.....

yea ,i know ,i haven't started to add any other features like that unlit i figure out the clothing for her,im still looking about for the right costume ,id post some other ideas out there.Maybe i might change the idea around,i want here to have an occupation or some thing,maybe show she was once some thing good before doping up meth.I was also entertaining the idea she was a pop star or actor like Linzy Lohan or some Nun or something.You can see where coming up with a fresh perspective on a zombie lags for me.

Clothes 01

Stiffler

AHh....i see a (in)famous meth head head zombie, i get it now. Then new costume details look great. Nice intricate seam-work. Im not sure where to go with the fashion aspect (broken high heels?), but maybe figuring out how she 'died'/turned into a zombie would help for inspiration.

absorbentghost

when all the clothing feels right im gonna zombiefy this trick all out,she gonna play the part doped out crack head.

absorbentghost

here is an update ,im really playing around with clothing and other props.

absorbentghost

I really rather texture my models with poly-paint before i start to detail them ,so here is the molting pass where i lay down simple tones and some blending to them .And i don't support images to use as textures .Cheating is a pain and its not what i have in mind.



sooon people the fun of details and posing will begin and these woman will be come a zombie ,the junkie of all women .

absorbentghost

Using layers in Zbrush has proven it self useful ,stored some skin pores and textures on various layer and makeUp effects on a next.Zombiefing this character will be fun and some waht challenging due to the fact i don't want this to be morbid and over exagerated as the other zombie idea out there with guts hanging and other disgusting themes.Im going for something subtle here ,let me know what details that might be cool .I did search ref of "Abused women" which wielded some great results.

absorbentghost

Here are some flesh wounds,hope u hate them.Gore Sucks .

absorbentghost

Props and more soon.

Just dropping in with a quick reminder! the contest ends November 30th at 11:59:59 PST!

absorbentghost

Well people i'm loving this challenge , here a progress of the face .I want to give this zombie and occupation ,i hate this out fit no one knows what she did before her current laps.What Occupation should i give her people?

absorbentghost

Anais

I like the drooping on her left eye. Cool.
Maybe she was a waitress? Or a barrista at a local caf

absorbentghost

Anais thank you for dropping by , if only i read this sooner ,this idea is great ,but after some research ive decided to go with a Jessica rabbit theme sort of like the lady in red.

Anais

Sounds good too! That was just a suggestion so no worries, Ghost!

absorbentghost

So ladies and Gents ,her is my final Concept for this awesome challenge ,now i can start really detailing this zombie.Lady in red ...
