I took my lights down to my camera clubs studio room and my sister and her friend came down.. we had some good fun

My sister is studding make-up just now so she did her pal up as a zombie.

Model: William Cruickshanks
Make-up: Pamela Monaghan.

*Lighting*

a softbox front left ( without diffusing panels) and a gridded strobe back right.

I think that is great. So much detail in the skin. I don't know if the eyes are made up to be dark, but maybe a touch too much?

I also thank you for showing us the lighting set up, a great way to learn

This is excellent .... but you should call it Commando not Zombie ... he looks far too alive for that !

And +1 on the set-up.

Zombie Scare by usuqa, on Flickr

Another one from this shoot, just having a bit more fun this time..

Lighting is the same as the other one but with a second softbox (with the diffusers kept in place) to add some fill light my sister.

nice shots.
Zombies do not worry me.
I live in Winnipeg Canada.
We are basically a zombie free zone.
Our winters are so cold, zombies simply freeze up like creepy snowmen/meat statues.
I like to hang christmas lights on them for the holidays. We just have to remember to toss into the wood chipper before spring thaw, so they don't re-animate. Zombie problem solved.
Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.
