Ints: haha. Glad you like it. Sure does feel that way when you build the bones too. haha.

Nothingness: Yea thats the plan. Err. I hope haha. Lets see how it all omes out ;).

jocz: Cheers man. Thanks for the support.

So I had some time last night/morning and today. I slapped in my lotr albums to get in the “spirit” and what a joy it is to model something from the movie. The skull is finaly finished and I’ve started the face and crown. After this I’ll try do the zombie part. Though that was more weta digital work than workshop hmmm.

Sorry for the low quailty jpg :confused:
