When the little box of paper told me I had to draw zombies I was very reluctant because let’s face it in the past decade zombies have been done (sorry!) to death.
At first I thought I’d go with “real’ zombies. That is to say the ones from voodoo. A lot of the time I like to make a distinction between those and shambling carnivorous corpess (not out of being a pedant (at least not this time) but because I don’t want there being any confusion if and when Voodoo makes a comeback in I don’t want there to be any confusion.) The big problem there is in a pencil sketch how can you tell the difference between zombies working the plantations in the middle of the night and your standard menial laborer… It get’s kind of… problematic.
So I went with the shambling corpses… but to keep things interesting I made them cheerleaders.
