Tea Sweetener

This is for a photo manipulation contest at EGL_comm_art. I thought this would be a great opportunity to exercise my photo manipulation and compositing skills. It took about 8 hours to finish; about two of those hours were done searching for images (I had other ideas and got sidetracked).
These are the original images used in the final piece:

The Living Corpse

If you're wondering what I was working on for a couple of months last year, check this out. It's all I could show. It's based on an indie comic series about a conscious zombie. It's going to be in stereoscopic 3D and may be released later this year. Some of the scenes I have seen were pretty neat! Can't wait to see the finished product.

So here's the face I've been staring at while working last year:

I worked on the lighting and texturing in this particular shot. Also, I did do some textures for many of the characters and tested out some lighting techniques in a few scenes. We primarily used Lightwave. I also used Mudbox, BodyPaint 3D, Photoshop, and Modo(for minor UV fixes). My favorite part was working on the numerous zombies' textures and shading. They were so fun to work on!
