Dead, Buried and Back for Valentines Day

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 16:51:02 PST

Hey there all you Zombie Art Lovers! Valentines and Zombies go hand in hand so what better image to post than this lovely Zombie Babe waiting for her special gift of brains! Actually, this image is one of two new art designs that represent the Zombie News and Interest site "Dead Buried and Back". I really had an awesome time illustrating this one as I wanted to employ a very bold technique to really give the image strength and solidity. The fine folks at DBaB are using the image as a representative/logo type image so I wanted people to be able to see it from across the room. All the lines are thick and juicy and the drawing just exudes horror and sexuality in equal doses.
I thank you all for stopping in today Zombie Nation, and I hope to see you again real soon!

Franken Zomberry : From The Cereal Mascots of the Living Dead Series

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 07:52:10 PST

Greetings all of you Zombie Art Fans out there in the Land of the Walking Dead! I promised the many many zombie fans out there that requested that after the "Fast Food Mascots of the Living Dead" series, that I turn my attention to the many cereal box mascots, and here is the first image of that promised series! They made him a monster...He made them BREAKFAST! He's the very first Steam Punk fused with Classic Movie Monster to represent a cereal, and he was loads of fun to zombify! I think that there will be many more from this series, so I really hope that you enjoy them.
Thanks for stopping in today Zombie Nation, I'll see you all next time right here on Zombie Daily!

Sadly...The Whitney Houston Zombie

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 08:07:32 PST

Hey there Zombie Art Fans! I bring you the Whitney Houston Zombie, not out of disrespect for the recently dead, but as a tribute to her incredibly short life. I myself was never really into her brand of music, but I know that she did touch countless people with her inspirational songs. Whitney passed yesterday apparently due to problems arising from her sustained drug abuse, but I'm sure if you want to find out more, just turn on the news. Even after all of these years of being the "Zombie Portrait Guy" I still feel strange posting or even drawing a person who is no longer among the living, and especially someone so recently deceased, but I like to point out that this is the art that I do and for me it's a more a response to honor them rather than a parody or anything malicious. This imane by the way, was illustrated as a part of my "Zombiewood" book.
I hope that you've enjoyed today's post Zombie Nation, see you all again soon.

Heads of the Living Dead : Hunka Bunka Rotten Impersonator

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Sat, 11 Feb 2012 10:17:34 PST

Hey there Zombie Art fanatics! The Walking Dead returns this weekend to AMC and I must say that I'm pretty exited about it. If you haven't seen the series yet do check it out as it's one of the very best written shows on television today, and hey, it's got zombies!
I just wanted to add that this Monday, I will be posting the first image from my new zombie series right here on Zombie Daily! I hope that it's well received as I'm finding it to be a lot of fun to do. I should have a few finished entries for it tomorrow, with the first one being posted Monday.
Thanks for stopping in today everyone, see you again soon!

Poseable Zombie Babe

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 08:40:36 PST

Hey there Zombie Art Lovers! Okay, here's the very last Zombie Pinup Babe held over from last year. I can now finally say that every new living dead girl will be from this years' crop. I find that every year that I return to an existing series, I really change the way that the art is executed. This is really an innate thing as I don't consciously set out to do that, but if you go all the way back through the history of Zombie Daily, you will see that I've changed the way that I've drawn Zombie Babes greatly from year to year. I'm actually kind of curios as to what I'll end up interpreting them as next.
Thaks for stopping by Zombie Nation, I hope to see you all again soon!

A Zombie Daily Blast from the Past : Suck It!

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 10:59:20 PST

Greetings to all the Zombie Art Freaks out there in the Land of the Living Dead! I haven't posted a blast from the past image in quite some time so here's an illustration that was done way way back in good old 2009! This image has since been used for everything from tattoos to t-shirts and to me, was just one of those fun little one-off ideas that I ended up doing simply to have fun drawing a simple yet effective stand alone illustration.
By the way, right now I'm in the middle of doing a really fun new series that was suggested by a great number of fans, and since I am an artist for the people, I must do what the people request, of course often very much to my enjoyment. I hope you all like what's coming up!
Thank you all for stopping in to Zombie Daily everyone, I hope to see you all again soon.

Heads of the Living Dead : Zombie Eddie Spigetti

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 08:05:23 PST

Greetings fellow Zombie Art Lovers! I told you I'd be covering some strange uncharted Zombie ground in this series! I really want to strive to bring you images that have never been done or seen before in the Zombie Universe, and why not a Zombie that vaguely looks like he was made of spaghetti? It could happen...It could be some strange form of zombie virus that formed a cohesive bond with a Chef Boyardee factory worker...:) These are the questions I'll be answering as the Heads of the Living Dead series continues! Of course, I do want to have fun while doing these too, so stay tuned for more strangeness here on Zombie Daily!
Thanks for stopping in today to check out my newest daily posting, see you again soon!

Dark Sky Death Maiden Zombie

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 10:48:11 PST

Greetings Zombie Art Lovers! It really seems like a long time since I posted any Hot Zombie Babes here on Zombie Daily, so here's a new one completed just last week! I will do my very best to keep the momentum of Zombie Daily going for as long as I can this year, but it will really be hard to top last year's number of posts. I've got a fun new series coming up however and of course I'll be continuing the Heads of the Living Dead series, there will be many more Zombie Babes, and a few fun surprises along with virtually all of the zombie production work that I'm doing, so if you like art and you like zombies, it should be a pretty good year!
Thank you all for stopping by today, see you again very soon.

Fast Food Mascots of the Living Dead : Jack in the Box Zombie

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 09:07:00 PST

Hey there Zombie Art Lovers! It's time now for the last zombified fast food mascot of the series, and I think, despite the fact that he's basically just a "happy face" with a hat, it's probably the creepiest of the bunch! I wanted this series to have a less formatted look so I attempted to find reference of these mascots that were vastly different from each other so that they were a series in content only. You can look back and see that the Kentucky Fried Chicken, Colonel Sanders one was basically a zombified floating head logo, much like the Wendy's Girl, while the Burger King and Mc Donald's Clown were more like guys wearing zombified suits or makeup and were zombies underneath. For the Jack in the Box one that you see here, I wanted to go under the assumption that this big-headed thing actually exists and is turned into a zombie as is. I really like the results!
Now it's on to the next set of mascots, and wait 'till you see which ones!
Thanks for stopping by today everyone, I'll see you again soon!

Heads of the Living Dead : Cheese Curd Zombie

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 18:09:14 PST

Hey there all you Zombie Art Lovers out there in the land of the undead! Well, with the exception of yesterday's George Romero Birthday post, we had a pretty neat little "Heads of the Living Dead Week" here on Zombie Daily. I hope that you've all enjoyed it as much as I have sharing them all with you. Now, of course that is hardly the end of that series as regulars to this site know. I'll be posting many more of the hideous heads as the weeks continue as I slowly reach my goal of 365. You'll be seeing increasingly weirder Zombie Heads as I exhaust the more conventional designs and move on into the bizarre and outlandish! I hope that you'll all stay for the ride!
Thanks for stopping in today Zombie Nation! 'See you again soon!

Happy Birthday George Romero!!

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 08:14:06 PST

Hey there Zombie Art Fans! It's George Romero's Birthday, so I thought that I'd interrupt our regularly scheduled "Heads of the Living Dead Week" entry to pay a small tribute to the man who started "The Living Dead" franchise. George Romero had a huge role in creating the "Modern Zombie", basically the one that ate human flesh, were the recently deceased that returned to life, and could be killed by shooting them in the head, and yes, there WERE fast zombies amongst the slow zombies in his movies!!!! The whole, "Eating Brains" and returning to life from the grave was popularized much later with "Return of the Living Dead", NOT a sequel to Romero's movies, but a film that vastly furthered the Zombie mythos, (And my favorite Zombie Movie).
These illustrations, by the way, are from the two versions of the documentary "Zombiemainia" which I did many more illustrations for and actually co-starred in!
I hope that you've all enjoyed today's posting and tribute to George Romero, Zombie Nation, I'll see you all again very soon!

Heads of the Living Dead : Zombie Cyclops

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 08:41:47 PST

Greetings all you Lovers of Zombie Art! So, here's something you don't see everyday, A zombified cyclops! This is the neat sort of thing that I'm finding myself doing with this expansive series, really digging in and finding new areas of "things to zombify". While I don't want to really do a series within a series, in as much as doing specific renditions of certain groups like rock stars or mythological creatures and such, I still want to at least bring a "feel" for those images into play. I think that specific groups or ideas will be better left to more fully realized illustrations like the "Fast Food Mascots of the Living Dead" and such, in which I can do them more justice in drawing them with bodies and props and so on. Speaking of the "Fast Food Mascots", I've got the last one coming up right after this week long "Heads" extravaganza so check back to see which good natured spokesman I zombified for that series.
Thank you all for stopping by Zombie Nation, see you again real soon!

Heads of the Living Dead : Zombie Roadie

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 14:16:36 PST

Hey there all you Lovers of Zombie Art! I'm zombifying 365 heads for the biggest series here on Zombie Daily, as "The Heads of the Living Dead" week continues! I've got a few really interesting entries coming up by weeks' end for this series so keep checking back to check them out, I'm hoping that you'll really dig them. As I've mentioned before, I am going to try my hardest to complete this run of zombie heads this year, so that perhaps next year everyone can have a "Zombie Head a Day Calendar" HA! We'll see what happens with it but you never know.
Thanks for stopping in everyone, I'll see you all again soon!

Heads of the Living Dead : Monster Zombie

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 13:20:03 PST

Hey there all you Zombified Zombie Art Lovers of the Living Dead out there! With this series of Living Dead Heads, I really didn't want to treat it like a Mr. Potato head type thing where I would just cut and paste different hats, noses, beards, and stuff on the initial head design to create new drawings. I very much wanted each and every new head to be radically different from the last. That isn't to say that I haven't done the Mr. Potato head thing to a degree, but I want the head that things are stuck to, to be different each time as well. So, you'll be seeing all sorts of differing head designs like today's Monster Zombie. There is plenty more experimentation left to go with these and I will explore every avenue I can.
I hope that you liked today's post everyone, see you all next time!

Heads of the Living Dead : Jimmy the Zombie Scumbag

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 08:16:57 PST

Greetings Zombie Art Lovers! New Living Dead Drawings from the largest source of Zombie Art on the internet!! Of course in drawing such a massive series as the Heads of the Living Dead, I'm also responsible for naming each and every zombie. Sometimes it can be a real chore, and the name that I come up with and stick with may be a little clunky, but other times, the Zombie Head will literally tell YOU what it should be called. Take Jimmy the Zombie Scumbag here. Once again, this was an image that was purely spontaneous in illustrating, but after it was finished, one look at him told me that he looked like a lowlife crook or bottom feeding criminal turned zombie. And there it is! It just seems to fit like a glove of dead flesh! ell, one down, 364 to go!
I hope that you've all enjoyed today's Zombie Daily Drawing, I hope to see you all again soon!

Heads of the Living Dead : Skinned Zombie

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 16:52:56 PST

Hey there Zombie Art Lovers! Okay, so we're on to an impromptu "Heads of the Living Dead" week here on Zombie Daily in an effort to clear out all images lingering over from 2011. In just this month alone I've created 27 new drawings for this massive series and I have to say, at this point, I'm just exited to see all of these images in one place, and I'm using that excitement to push me to finish the series. After all of the time and effort put into making each and every one of these heads different and new, I gotta say it has been a huge challenge. I just overcame the halfway point in numbers for the goal of 365 of these illustrations the other day and I am both thrilled and frightened. It really took a huge effort to get there and I'm going to really have to dig deep if I am to both come up with more original material and finish the series this year. Seems like a Herculean task.
Thanks for stopping in today Zombie Nation, 'hope that you liked today's post!

Heads of the Living Dead : All Kinds of Ugly

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 12:34:48 PST

Hey there all of you rabid Zombie Art Freaks! I'm very much considering a Heads of the Living Dead week here on Zombie Daily this week. I'd really like to post any and all image holdovers from last year to make way entirely for just new stuff and of course the occasional "Blast from the Past" and "Favorite Zombie Portrait". I have got a lot of singular standing and zombie drawing series to get to this year, but in order to get all of it done, I may again, need to contemplate taking a brief hiatus from regular new posts. We'll see how it goes, and I will keep you all posted.
Thanks for stopping in today everyone. I hope to see you all again very soon!

Zombie Babe Sitting....Not Pretty

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 07:29:24 PST

Hello there Zombie Art fans out there in the Land of the Walking Dead! Zombie Pin-up Babes have become a real staple here at Zombie Daily, and I've noticed that each year that I attempt a new batch of Living Dead Hotties, I end up approaching them differently. When I first started drawing them, I really drew them as completely dessicated, decayed creatures. As the years went on, I think that I added, amongst other things, more personality and character to them in giving them back their faces. I think that now I can create a Zombie Babe that is completely shredded and decayed but still has a certain sexiness to it for some strange, even disturbing reason....at least that's what a lot of people say, and I think that it's true..I wonder what the next step in the Zombie Babe evolution will be?
Thanks for stopping by Zombie Nation, see you soon!

My Favorite Zombie Portraits : Valentines Day Gifts!

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 20:55:53 PST

Greetings Zombie Art Lovers, and Lovers of Love! I get so many Valentines Day Zombie Portrait requests that this year, they started coming in around Christmas of the prior year! Whether it's a single portrait, couples' portrait or couples' wedding portrait, I just want to remind everyone to please order soon so that you can present it to your sweetheart horror fan for that special day! I think that it's so cool that people give this gift to their significant other on Valentines Day as it really means so much more than any other day to a lot of people.

Heads of the Living Dead : Vincent

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 13:07:37 PST

Hey every Living Dead body who loves new Zombie Art! Today's new Deadite Drawing comes from the long and ever growing line of "Heads of the Living Dead" series as if you didn't know, and is loosely based on horror icon Vincent Price. I say loosely as I simply had him in mind while drawing this image. there are some drawings from this series that may resemble certain celebrities or historical figures but for the most part it is largely a very spontaneous method that I use in rendering this particular run. I hope that I'm not the only one that sees the Vincent Price in this drawing! HA!
Once again' I thank you all for stopping in today, I'll see you again really soon!

Last Zombie Bettie Page 1st Series

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 12:54:42 PST

Greetings Zombie Art lovers! Yup, this is the last Bettie Page Zombie drawing from the first series. As I've mentioned in earlier Bettie posts, while I enjoyed working on this series, I did wrap it up rather quickly and thought that it perhaps needed a more detailed, more refined approach. So, having said that, I will, at some point this year do another, possibly shorter run of Zombie Bettie Page drawings that will be of a higher caliber, thus giving my favorite pin-up girl of all time her artistic due.
Thank you all for stopping in today for a new Zombie Daily post, I look forward to seeing you all again soon!

I've got one more Living Dead Mascot after our friend Wendy here, and then it's on to a new similar series that was emphatically suggested by all of you fans! If you weren't around for the announcement, you'll find out soon enough! Just a reminder to all you Zombie lovers in love with other Zombie lovers, please order your Valentines Day Zombie Portrait soon, as time is swiftly running out for me to get it out to you depending on where you live.

Bikini Beach Babe Zombie Massacre

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 08:12:47 PST

Hey there Zombie Art fans! Today's Zombie Drawing is the second to last Zombie Babe that I have held over from last year. She was part of a short lived series that I was inspired to do after seeing the movie "Piranha 3D", one of my favorite movies of last year. And speaking of second to last, make sure that you all stop in tomorrow, for a new "Fast Food Mascots of the Living Dead", as it will be the second to last image from that series as well.
'Hope you've enjoyed today's post everyone, see you all soon!

Zombie Babe Emerges from Stony Ground

noreply@blogger.com (Sacchetto) — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 11:51:10 PST

Hey every Living Dead Body out there! More Zombie Art for you today in the form of a new Zombie Babe! I still have a few Living Dead Girls held over from last year but I will get to those soon to completely clear out "old stock" to make way for new drawings done this year. I'm currently going through the hundreds of drawings that I've done these past few years for Zombie Daily to pick the very best for my massive Zombie Book. It will take quite a while to amass but it's kinda fun going through all those old drawings finding some I really love and others that are really embarrassing!
I hope that you've all enjoyed today's post Zombie Nation, see you all again soon!
