I`ve seen so many zombies really great, but I always wanted my zombie comic accurate.

The brain is epoxy painted base coat black, then some purple and green and some black again.

Let me hear your opinion.

If I'm going to pay $75 for a Captain America Bust or statue - I would want it to do something other than just sit there looking pretty
Poseability - light up ANYTHING
Thats why Custom action figures sell for high prices cos you can have them AS AS STATUE or pose them in all kinds of ways
You have more choice
To me - a bust or statue is overpriced compared to action figs
I'm speaking as a once professional sculptor who has got into making action figure customs
quite frankly I got bored of static pieces
Just my two cents
Oh BTW
Great work dude

hey thanks everybody for your kind words, let me explain some stuff about how this figure come out, fisrt I bought this cap in a flea market for like 7 usd, with any accesory, so the shield is from my custom classic cap, thats why I don't want to paint it or coztomise it, because it have to work for both figures, and when I bought this figure it was already damaged on the head, actually the head wing that is missing on the head was missing when I bought it so it was destinated to be a zombie, I also gave him a black coat on the gloves and boots an then drywashed them with red so I can get shadows on it, I didn't damaged the figure because I was watching all the numbers of zombies and no one image has him even a little damaged only in the head, I gave some shadows on the face for a more accurate comic looking, but I think it's hard to see in the pictures, thanks again for watching my figures, see you soon.

If I'm going to pay $75 for a Captain America, I'll buy an actual statue or bust. That's too much for any action figure.

No kidding, I haven't done a cap zombie yet cause those figs are going for like $75 on a website right out of the package! Still though, great job on the brain part. I agree with the others, needs more zombie bites, and a wash of some type to make everything really stand out. Don't forget my blood trick to make some ooze and gore come to life...er undeath. Hats off for having the stones to mod an expensive base figure!!
Oh and a personal note - thank you for getting the head slice at the correct angle!! I've seen a lot of cap zombies that have it going the wrong direction, yours is correct to the comic depiction, thanks for that!
