So I've spent months working on this diorama. When I say months, I really mean about 4 weeks. And when I say working, I mean walking by and staring at it all in pieces and then finding something else to do. But I was always thinking and plotting about it so maybe thats why it seemed like it took forever. I named the zombies after 2 of my co workers. i had to ask them first of course, because they're both pretty normal and I wasn't sure how well they would take the idea of zombies eating brains out of severed heads in their likeness. They both seemed flattered. Can't wait to take the photos into work.
Paul walked by and looked at it and went "ewww" so I took that as a good sign.
I wanted to make a homage to the monkey brain eating scene in Faces of Death. It started out pretty small with just the severed heads and then kept getting bigger . I kept saying "well, what if there was some cereal and milk?" And then I needed severed limbs and pools of blood and do-nuts with bloody handprints and a dog with a severed hand in his food dish.
Dang Etsy won't let you post more than 5 pictures so I'm posting the rest here. I'm getting one of those fancy "take pictures of your crap to sell on ebay" photo tents next week, so I'll probably take some better pictures and repost. I hope you like it! Its my new fav.
it's my new favorite too!! srsly great work!!
ReplyDeleteLol, this is awesome! I love how the severed heads are just smiling as their brains are feasted on. Breakfast of champions!
ReplyDeleteOh thanks so much you guys! I have so much fun making these! I showed my two co workers their namesakes today and they laughed their asses off and were only slightly mortified. So it went over well. I can't believe all the love this one is getting already...I totally appreciate it! Hugs!
