Zombie b3tan...


Original from here.

So, so sorry. Couldn't resist the expression.

From the Zombies! challenge. See all 600 entries (closed)

tell you what
i find this competition really boring.

the scope is really poor - you either turn something into a zombie of turn brains into a commericial food brand... it's a bit repetitive.

good shop though, you chose the perfect picture and executed the hue adaption really well.

sorry for the rant

Whingeing about a compo
is also just a little bit boring...

:-)

I was not whinging
I was stating a fact...

Those two acts
are not mutually exclusive.

hue adaptation?

I dont think this is what he did,
but what i would do is i would simply color green over him at about 60% transparency. not sure how that works in photoshop, though, as i merely have a editing program that came with my scanner

Actually, I agree but
I'm bored enough to shop unimaginitively (not being allowed to drink is a right bitch).

And I can't think of anything more original.

And I can't spell.

Well...
..I stand by my picture

It's not turning something into a zombie and it's not turning brains into a commercial food (not quite anyway)

I agree
There has been one or 2 good entries (sundae, bloody sundae, is my particular favourite. It doesn't actually contain a zombie.) Why does everyone think George Bush makes a good zombie?

I did one that was just turning someone to a zombie
but i tried to counteract that with some extra punnage.

I agree
by the end of the week we'll have thousands of images which are just people as zombies, not that its not good. just repetetive

well, while there isn't a lot to go on in this chellenge
there is certainly more to it than just sucking brains out. generally, i think it will take more skill to win this week. And while there will be an excess amount of generic "eat brains" posts, there are always a bunch of challenge entry posts that aren't original or funny, so in that regard, this week won't be much different. And as usual, the winning picture will be one that combines good shopping and a great idea and sense of humour. The fact that the topic isn't too specific may hurt, but not as much as it helps by opening doors to other zombie pictures that otherwise may not fit the competition.

you have a point on the skill thing
we could end up with a stunning winner - but inevitabably about 95% of entries will be repetive, fine shops - with nothing special about them.

but thats no different from other weeks
*points to bond gadgets or reductionist in example*
( Or is it?, Sat 14 Feb 2004, 22:01, archived)

but a lot of bg and r ones were good
say 30-40%

this comp has only had a minor few.

It depends who judges
Some of the moderators (so I've seen) prefer to have a good idea behind a post, even if it is slightly poorly executed. (e.g. the Breakfast at McDonalds FP the other day). However, some prefer skill based shops.
