Character of the Week #305
HALLOWEEN SPECIAL: Pop Culture Zombie
Redesign a character from popular culture as a flesh eating zombie!

DEADLINE: Wednesday 7th NOVEMBER 9PM GMT

Check your timezone!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN LOVELY CHOWERS! We know that as artists, we like to put our own twist on everything. So this week we want you to put your very own halloween twist on characters from popular culture. We would like you to choose your favourite character from film, TV, or video games and turn them into a zombie! HOWEVER; if the character is already a zombie OR if it is from a zombie....thing.... (e.g. Zombieland, Walking Dead, Left4Dead, Resident Evil etc) then it WILL NOT be entered into the poll.

We will also not be accepting any characters from books - not because we don't think books count as popular culture, but people are less likely to know who the characters are.

The Guidelines:

Cannot be a character that is already a zombie
Cannot be a character from any existing zombie media
Must be from TV, Movies, or videogames. Cannot be from a book

THE RULES
In addition to the brief, if you do not follow these rules, you will not be included in the poll.

Files must be named: CHoW#301_Username  (Files with any other names such as final.jpg or even chow301final.jpg will not be accepted)
Finals must be posted in the finals thread BEFORE the deadline
Final post must include the CHoW number and the artists username at the bottom of the image
At least 3/4 of the focus character must be visible
Follow the brief!

oh gosh this is so fun ill definitly participate

**Callergi** · November 1st, 2012, 10:15 AM

Well, this is a nice topic , thought I'd contribute a 'lil since so long has passed since I did anything for this forum.
Most interesting zombification for me would be for wolverine, although I really don't know how he'd get there given his healing abilities but meh.. zombie with titanium bones

For now I worked on the messed up pose, facial expression and some comic book like lines and am thinking of exploring zobifications later.

my idea is that they made the wish to bring back the people that died but forgot to mention that they wanted them in their old healthy body

This may have been the first Halloween in my esteemed holiday career that I have not gone overboard with the dress up action. Kept it to a minimum, and went out as "booze enthusiast man". Easy, quick, and focused.

One of my top 5 films is the good, the bad, and the ugly. Some western badasses, long drawn out dramatic pauses, and a timeless score. Lots to learn from this film. Big fan.

Some really cool work going on in this round, I love Mario and Clint! Awesome stuff.

Wip of Snake, I need to work on my line-work a lot more..

I started this other thing, probably won't finish this one though, I wanted to try something I don't usually do

**Quinn Simoes** · November 5th, 2012, 03:21 PM

These designs are looking really awesome! Keep them coming!

**Naevea** · November 5th, 2012, 04:16 PM
