Sweepstakes Time!

Remember how I mentioned that AMC was rationing out tidbits of information about their hit show "The Walking Dead" to keep us satisfied until Season Three premiers in October? Well, here's another one, and it could be awesome!

How would you like to go to the premiere of season three of AMC's "The Walking Dead"? Would you also like to meet the cast? How about a little side trip to KNB EFX, Greg Nicotero's Studio where they will make a cast of you as a WALKER for a one-of-a-kind lifesize bust?!?

Well it could ALL be yours (plus $500 spending money) if you win the amazing drawing they're hosting RIGHT NOW! Click on  THIS LINK and enter to win!

Aim high. Run fast. Good luck (because I've already entered).

Keeping An Eye Out for Zombies!

Hey everyone!

I apologize for letting several days go by without a post. I think once I saw that production work on AMC's "The Walking Dead" was officially underway, I just bounced around in my office chair for a couple of days and forgot the world.

I don't know if you've noticed, but my zombies are evolving a bit. If you see some of my earlier work, you'll probably notice a difference in the flesh tones, the scarring, and the eyes especially. In the beginning, I'd basically white out the eyes as if they didn't exist anymore. The effect was a little flat and not what I was hoping for, so slowly I changed some things. Which brings me to my latest image.

I wanted to experiment specifically with the eyes as a practice, and was really excited to find an image online that I thought would work perfectly for my experiment. I personally think it's an improvement, and hope you do, too.

Like the fly?

Aim high. Run fast. Practice.

Run for Your Lives!

I love, love, LOVE how zombies have exploded in popularity! There are more books than you can count, an amazing television show, movies, toys, games, LIVE games, and now the "Run for Your Lives" 5k obstacle race in Amesbury, Massachusetts!

You heard me. A 5k run while being chased by zombies. Apparently while you run, zombies chase you and try to take "health flags" that are attached at your belt! It features man-made and natural obstacles as well. Just look at these photos. How freaking 

awesome does that look?

You can go HERE for a slideshow of more pictures from the event, or HERE for their website. Apparently this goes on in several cities.

I don't run anymore (unless trying to catch my balance on the stairs), but it would be great to participate as a zombie, huh?






Check it out! Here's a promo video for the event!

Aim high. Run fast. Train for the brains...

If Only...

Being in graphic design for a living puts me elbow deep in Adobe Photoshop every day, so I'm always up for fun jokes/videos about the software.

Wouldn't you know some smarty-pants at CollegeHumor has developed a great video featuring a new Photoshop tool? Too bad it's just a joke, because it would be an AWESOME addition to the program.

Enjoy.

Looking Ahead to Season 3...

Everybody ok? It's been just over a month since the end of AMC's "The Walking Dead" season 2, and I for one have just about come out of my withdrawals. Hopefully you all are as well.

Unfortunately, it's still about six months until the beginning of season 3, so in the mean time we have to pace ourselves so we can make it thru the long haul. How do we do that? By learning to survive on the bits and pieces thrown out to us by the show's creators to keep us from "starving" to death.

And here's one now... the cast looks ahead to season 3 and what it may mean for their characters.

Savor the flavor.

Aim high. Run fast. Hang in there.

Zombie Bite!

Who says the zombie apocalypse has to be horrifying all the time? I mean, sure, there's the whole 'undead taking over the world - end of civilization as we know it' thing, but who's to say we can't take in an occasional board game once in a while?

Here's a bit from our pals at CollegeHumor.com showing just how easy it can be.

Enjoy.




Aim high. Run fast. Flubber.
