Pride and Prejudice and Zombies and Monstermaker

[monstermaker]

Ok I know it's not ZBrush and I know it's not Halloween but I thought you guys might be interested in the halloween make up that I did on my daughter this year.
It's been a long time since I have posted anything here on ZBC, I have been busy working on MIB3.
I have been using ZBrush but can't post anything until the film comes out.

I love ZB4 but that is no surprise because I loved ZBrush ever since I first tried it way back when.

Lots of great work here. I keep checking ZBC even though I have been crazy busy and always find it inspiring.

Hope you guys enjoy this as much as I did doing it PrideandPrejudiceand-ZombiesandBaker.jpg

Rick,

The makeup replicating the look of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is superb! You've been a master since wayyyy back and have been an inspiration for too many years than I can think back. Whether it's your makeup or your truly amazing Zbrushing, it's always top row and thanks for sharing!

great costume :tu: :tu: i think ??? :eek: :eek: :eek:

[GrizzlyJake]

TOO cool!! Love the make-up job...of course. Ive seen the cover but havent read the book. MIB3 using ZB? Sweeeeet very awesome. Can't wait til you can share. I will be curious when you do on what part ZB plays in that movie for you...i mean how you used it, for concept? For actual creatures used in the movie to be animated? Built prosthetics(sp?) from? etc.

As always...GREAT to see your work and how youve used computer technology in your workflow.

[Knacki]

I would have vomiting directly on your daughter if she would have rang my bell.
Without feeling sorry for that.

You have created a totally disgusting monster, monstermaker.

[bicc39]

Can definitely see the resemblance.

[royalwin]

Sorry, Rick...I can only give it five stars. It doesn't go to 11!

Awesome stuff, face hurts from smiling :D

[RawSunlight]

Totally goresome, Rick... amazing and inspirational work as always!
And MIB3 you say?.... mmmmmmmm :)

[Aliasfx]

Wow super cool, for the unknown reason I can't stope stearing at your kreation. I am always amazed by traditional work, super super !!!!! Thank you very much for taking time to share your work with our comunity.

[monstermaker]

Thanks guys,Especially for the funny comments.

I'll try and answer some questions before I go to work.

It's made out of a bunch of crazy materials. the strangest one is probably hot glue,colored hot glue.
I had to make this very quickly because of my heavy workload on MIB3 so fabricated most of it. I did most of the main face part on one Saturday and the neck the next Sat. The teeth and chin are acrylic the neck and some of the torn flesh are silicone.
The only photoshop ,I adjusted the levels and smudged the edges of the contact lens. Oh and I painted over the crazy nail polish that my daughter had just done on her fingernails.
I don't have any making of photos as I was working so fast,well maybe I have a shot of the first days work at the end of the day but it is on another computer if it even exists. I'll check later and post it if it is worth it.
She went to school like this and yes she is definitely my daughter. the scleral contacts were her idea,she insisted on wearing them. When her mother said to her that she was going to be uncomfortable she said "Halloween is not about being comfortable mom" That's my girl!
It's nice to be back her on ZBC I am looking forward to having more time to play with ZB and posting the results
Thanks

[AMIMBK]

[EvilSmiley]

I wish my dad was the best makeup guy in the business! Halloween would definatly rock!

Good work. Can't wait to see MiB 3...loved the first 2

[hyper1]

OK Rick this is just upsetting and wrong, I love it. However, I probably have to warn you about going to hell, but apparently you've been there and remembered the experience.
All the best :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu:

Oh my God!
Even in Halloween, if I saw that on the street I'd freak out!

Lol must be so cool to have the best makeup artist dad! I'm sure she must've been the highlight of Halloween in your area and in school!

Lol I agree, to see people's reactions to this would be priceless!

Amazing job Rick!
