Post My First Custom: Radioactive Zombie (pic heavy)
I started this around October, hence the Halloween color scheme, but only had time to finish it this past winter break. Any tips and feedback are welcome.... I especially hate masking off areas to get a clean line, and it still didnt come out clean. I tediously used masking tape, but is there an easier way? I just used spray paint for the whole thing, but I hope to get an airbrush one day. But I thought it came out okay, but it could have been much better. Let me know what you guys think :D

The glow looks great. I think the lavender vest works really well too.

Dunno why, but it reminds me of the Incredibles costumes.

Yea, pretty much the hooded zombie has had uninteresting colorways, just basic solid colors.... but with the recent Escaregot and Oooze Bat, Im looking forward to some crazier colors and fades for the hooded zombie
