My Zombie Grave Escape - In progress

[Spooky1]

Here's my shot at Spooky Sam's Zombie Grave Escape.

Step one find a kind forum member to sell me a massager. Thanks groovie ghoulie

Step four: Find a skull/head (skull was from Michael's, and we cut the bottom jaw and reattached so he'll have an open mouth)

Step seven: Build a coffin (me)

So I still need to attach the head to the massager, age the coffin and add lighting and sound to the coffin.

Stay tuned! (videos on pg 2 :))

[Bethene]

looking good so far!!

[The Watcher]

That is coming along nicely.

[IMU]

You 2 are doing a wonderful job! :)

[sparky]

Your prop is starting to look real good, what a group effort!!!!!

[fick209]

Looking good so far, can't wait to see finished product.

[Night Watchman]

I thought of having my wife learn to corpse things, but thought again because I would be next!
Prop looks great.

If she does, make sure she posts pictures:googly:

[Unclecreepy]

Prop looks great.
I want to see it in action.

[Night Watchman]

Thanks Roxy!!!
If she does I will make sure my tongue is sticking out at you.:p

[Spooky1]

Here's a look at the almost completed zombie. What do you think, should I use the red light or blue light. :) Sound will be added also.

I do want to reposition the light to try to get more light on his face. (and age his shirt)

Without coffin light

[Draik41895]

My cousins wont believe that i dint make that,even though im no where near that good

[Revenant]

Hmmm... I think he should just be lit with plain white light, or maybe a pale amber... The colored light washes out his details. He looks so good (as does the coffin) as is I would want his details to be visible.

[madmomma]

Excellent prop! I think the colored lights are a little too bold. Just some softer lighting would bring out the details more. Great work you two!

[IMU]

Hey, that looks great. I agree, a softer light would help bring out the details but still an awesome prop! :)

[RoxyBlue]

Part of the apparent loss of detail is due to the camera. In person, you definitely see more detail. It wil be worth trying out another light (if we have one:D), though, because lighting definitely makes a difference. When we were testing lighting on the head by itself (outside of the coffin), we got a great look with a blacklight. Once inside the coffin, that type of lighting didn't work visually at all.

[bohica]

Great Job! I just cannot seem to get my ground breaker to move correctly, I've spent hrs moving the "tape" that controls the arm and head.....grrrrr.....lol
