Zombie costume ideas

[Calaen]

So I have just decided(been given permission off my wife ) that I am allowed to go and oggle/touch up the students on Saturday night. Well what better way to get away with pawwing at people than to be a zombie.

Unfortunately I have never been a zombie before and would there for like to ask for help. Anyone know how to get that authentic look?

I'm talking blood everywhere, possible wounds and stuff?

Please if you can help me out! Everyone I feel will be in your honour!

Just /wrist when they open the door to you. Worst case you just stay dead and ruin the party.

Good tips all round.

If you want realistic wounds, you could try walking into The Feeleys Pub in Clapham on a Saturday night wearing a Union Jack flag and shouting "Fuck you, you Fenian slags" before throwing a bottle at the largest paddy you can find ?

well, I used to like messing about and making special effects and stuff when I was a kid and some quite cool ways of doing some gross effects I used to do are:

Get some chicken bones (drumstick bones) clean them and make sure they are dry then you cansnap one end off and file it down (only takes a few minutes) so its not sharp or anything and wrap your neck or arm in kitchen paper (use red food colouring on the paper so it looks nice and bloody and let that dry) a few times then kind of shred it a bit and stick it on your arm using a really weak waterbased glue. Mush it all up a bit and stick the filed end of the chicken bone in the paper so the end looks like its poking out of your arm hehe.

Then (this one hurts if you use hot wax so let it cool a bit!) get a candle, red or white is best and burn the wax a bit melt it so its nice and mooshable, cooling down but starting to stiffen and then use it to make it look as if the skin on your face is melting. Its also good for making it look like your throats been torn out if you use a chicken bone or some red rope liquorice as veins!

Burnt cork is good for making grey smudges under your eyes (you can use makeup but womens makeup tends to shimmer and you mak look like an undead drag artist) and I have a pair of really grim looking fingers carved out of green soap that look like they've gone putrid hehe took about 1 hour to make them from 1 bar of palmolive soap, I dug out a hollow with a spine poking out of the end and painted the spine white so it'd look like protruding bone, was very effective when I took them into work for the frankenstein display my colleague almost puked hehe, so you could make some fake fingers and like pretend to gnaw on them throughout the evening
