Based on an FX make-up look by Corinne Foster (MrsMakeUpFX). It's such a pretty effect. Kudos to her. Didn't have anything fancy so I just used just cheap make-up and children's face-paints. #ZNation #zombie #FX #MakeUp #halloween

Had another pass at the face but don't feel I've done her justice. There comes a point, in any creative endeavour, where you have to settle for *good enough*. Or risk destroying all of your progress. #ZNation #Addy #art #HumanMade #AnastasiaBaranova

Settled on the line-work and overall design elements in ink. It's part of a set but I'm taking my time over them as I notoriously have a habit of setting myself massive projects and crashing. Never to complete any part of them. #ZNation #Murphy #art #HumanMade #KeithAllanDuh
Photo. A white piece of card is clipped to a tan board. Visible on the card is a stylised drawing of a man wearing a smart coat. Bust. Bite shaped decorative elements in the background. The lower part of the drawing is still a pencil sketch. The upper part of the drawing mirrors it (like a playing card) but has been gone over with black ink to harden the lines.

Working on something I kind of promised to do but I've been dragging my heels over a little. That's not fair. I've been taking my time because that is how I work at times. Ideas need a while to cook before I can take proper action. #ZNation #Murphy #art #HumanMade #KeithAllanDuh

Zed-Whacker by Fluffgar 2026 I'm quite happy with the finished item. May make some changes, depending on the context it's to be used in. But the main thing is as finished as any creative project ever really gets. Thankyou, everyone, for your encouragement
Photo. The "Zed-Whacker" complete. It is a toy baseball-bat. A broad band added near the hitting end has long spikes added around it (six) and is indented with false rivets. There is a single long spike added to the tip. The body of the prop weapon has been painted silver (with a base coat of black showing through at the crevices and joins). The handle has been wound with black cloth with a slight sheen to it.Photo. The prop weapon shown hitting end on. Showing clearly all of the spikes in a star-like arrangement.Photo.

Continuing work on the #ZWhacker. Not going to be screen-accurate but I kind of like how it's looking. Has the right feel. In-universe explanation might be a case of convergence. Someone else had a similar idea. A #ZedWhacker perhaps. #prop #ZNation #TV #HorrorCon #Scotland #horror #comedy

The Sword of Triss by Fluffgar 2026 (smol edition) Seeing as the last image failed to load for being too chonky I'm uploading this smaller version. Hopefully this decides to behave. #art #HumanMade #TTRPG
Painting of a sword. Based on a claymore, the end flares out into a flame shape. A fire-sword.
