Zombies strike back!!

I've been at it again doing zombified portraits. For those of you who don't know what that is, i get a photo of a person and do a portrait of them turned into a zombie. It's a fun take on doing portraits that people seem to like, and i sure like doing them. I've started doing more action poses in recent times, making the drawings even more dynamic. If you want one done of yourself, get in touch on 0421 423 052 or brendan@brendanhalyday.com

As a special treat for you bloggers, i thought i would give you a little 'behind the scenes' tour of my process for this piece. To start with the peice was hand drawn in pencil...

Then inked with a brush and scanned. I would clean up any messy bits in Photoshop. The artwork is then digitally coloured in Illustrator. Here is the B&W linework. Hope you have enjoyed this little sneak peak behind the scenes. :)
