So I've changed my mind. Instead of a zombie clown (that someone else is doing anyway) I'm doing something entirely different.
Since the contest rules don't rule out animals I'm doing an experimental monkey that has broken out of a lab (maybe the lab where the zombie virus was created?).
He has some armature screwed onto his skull and has been burned during his escape.
Current progress:
Here is a first glimpse at the concept:
A rough sketch of the proportions:

maybe put some more zombie features on him, like burn away half of his face to show those teeth better. dont get caugt up in details for now, just break the symmetry
cheers,

Is it half zombie half machine ?
Thanks! No, he's 100% zombie monkey, although probably a killer machine!^^
@lotet: Thank you! We'll see how cute he will get when I zombify him:D
Progress:
Still seeking the ideal proportions before I subdivide further and detail further but I'm pretty happy with this one.
Strong work.
Yeah I'll make sure to include that in my next update!
I've got to say that I really like working on him. I probably should finish him sooner than later in order to avoid getting bored with him...
I def wanna see this one finished.
I'm thinking maybe he was fighting with other infected chimps in the lab or dogs once he got out. And also there was fire and explosions in the lab so he will have bite and burn wounds.
The sinewy legs look great.
Since you look like you know what you're doing(understatement) I'll just rattle off the things I have problems with:
Hands (look too human)
feet (asuming unfinished, but apes are make or break from their feet)
Junk (a bit of a pet peeve of mine, either give that monkey a penis or put a whole lot of fur there. he needs something)
Face (the face looks awesome, but I don't think it's reading too well in the full body shot. Maybe it'd help if the mouth were a bit open)
Thanks a lot for the critique man, you touched on some very good points! I will incorporate that in the next update.
The hands are a tough one, I probably made them too bony. It seems like chimps have bigger nuckles too.. Got to study moar^^
As for the junk.. I don't think a penis would be a good idea but i might give him a nutsack though.
I think the different materials will help to make some thinks clearer, like the white of the teeth against the dark skin and so on.
