IF: Pale (time for another zombie)


Watching "Shaun of the Dead" and seeing a gaunt woman at the airport inspired this hideous little sketch. Maybe the fact that I'm sick as a dog and pretty pale myself had something to do with it.

I didn't know that orange and black look good and moleskine. Nice job on the colors to make her look paler. I hope you get well soon.:)

Like the font work, it matches the look of this piece. At first glance I thought the black spots were spiders, she looks like she would have some in her weave.

Cool,
