I decided to post this here in Artwork, because I spent way too much time and careful detail on this piece to stick it in "photochops". This is something I really worked on.

This came about because someone on another site said someone should make a zombie version of the original... as it turns out, this wasn't what was intended, but that's ok... I think it's pretty damn good.

The original (in low resolution, to conserve load time... no one needs to see the perfectly unpixelated original- but if you want it, i can send it to you):




And the new, improved, "zombie world" version:

Nice work Analog. I really dig the cricket bat!

nice! i like the setup! great contrast. the shadow for the zombie is really well done man!
Now I would give the girl something in her hands to defend herself if she's not a zombie. And if she is, then add some blood, and crazy eyes.
Also the car in flames seems to be tilted to the right. since the road slants in the picture, the car should too. or am I just seeing it wrong?

now i gotta ask: who's the girl in the picture? gf? friend? She's really hot!

It's great. My only complaint is that if she's a zombie, where're the wounds?

spectre

Very cool. Nice work. And making the image a little darker was a great touch.

Very interesting work. Let's see more.

I like it! The cricket bat looks a bit out of place - not positionally, just like it's supposed to be something else like a crowbar or something. And the burning car does look a bit too upright. The scene reminds me of the movie Idle Hands. Now if that were Jessica Alba... :drool:

But I'm no expert on the subject, so you can take my crit and toss it. I'd love to see more of your stuff tho, so keep 'em coming.

BTW, where did you get the zombie dude from? He looks kinda familiar but I can't place it.

It's a reference to the movie, "Shaun of the Dead" where the main character uses a cricket bat to ward off zombie attacks for a while.

After having looked at it a bit more, I think you and several others are correct, though i'll be damned if it didn't seem fine when I first placed it... fresh eyes are a good thing, though.

Google image search, though I think this one might have come from a "Dawn of the Dead" still... not sure.

I love the Shaun of the Dead reference. Though it sorta made me laugh at the picture more than anything else.

This is really good. It turned out WAY better than I thought it would after reading the first subject title. Good work

Constructive Criticism:

1. The car is on fire but emits no lighting effects on the scenery. Try looking at some photos of things on fire and the lighting impact on the rest of the scenery. The asphalt needs to take on an orange and yellow glow and haze.
2. The shadow under the cricket bat looks off. The light sources don't match up and it looks too high off of the ground. Try removing the shadow and adding lighting effects.
3. The house in the background looks too penned. Try to blur it and take the focus out of the picture. You may also want to damage it a bit for effect.

Keep up the good work. With a bit of lighting and focusing that picture will be fantastic!

I agree with thed00t concerning the cricket bat. That is the part that seems to jump out at me the most as not belonging. It doesn't seem to stretch back into the distance quite right. It's very close to being spot on, just not quite there. The fire glow not being visible on the street didn't actually occur to me until I read thed00ts overview. Really just picky little things. The zombie on the left impresses me the most.

The shadow for the zombie is really good. The flames make it look like a movie and not a picture, its great. the bat is kinda floating you could add some shading. Thats one Zombie I would not run from.
