This is for Black Ink Horror issue #3, for the story Headcount by Tim Groome.

It's a charming little tale about ... well I don't want to ruin it for you, but I will say that it is full of zombies, has a great theme, and text with biting wit.
Tim gave me a lot of wonderful imagery to work with.

As you may or may not have noticed, I used a different shading technique for this one. I usually use crosshatching, but after studying the work of , , and , I decided to try my hand at stippling. Their galleries are amazing, if you haven't checked them out, do so. I can't stress that enough. I've been experimenting in the past few weeks and this is the first piece that I've felt good about. And even though it took me forever to do this piece, and I can't even count how many hand cramps I got, I am very excited about learning this new technique and putting it to use.

Also, I'm glad I finally got to explore my zombie fetish . I think you will be seeing a lot more zombie pieces from now on, since this piece has given me a lot of new ideas.
