Hallow's Notes - Zombie Make-up Tips for the Epidermally Challenged
I spent the entire week looking at Zombie make-up tutorials, trying to figure out the easiest way to create a wound. Some ideas were simple, some really detailed, until I finally found this young, handsome gent on You Tube. My first attempt didn't go well - I had too much of an outline, but my second attempt went great when I added enough latex to the edges to give it a blended effect to my neckline. Alas, I took no photos as we were already late for the party, but here is my Zombie blueprint; I only did an area on my neckline.

Hallow's Notes - Once I was a Vampire
Yes, I believe the year was 1994 or 1995 when I was made a Vampire, immortalized as such by the charismatic young comic book artist, Mike Dringenberg. In the mid 90's Vampire role playing games became popular, and he was submitting some work. He asked a friend and myself to sit for him, and was kind enough to let me have one of his finished pieces. I have kept it rolled up, nice & tidy in a dark tube for all these years, my little alter ego dead girl carefully hidden away. I don't recall if any of his submissions made it to print, but with his success as a comic book artist in general, what an honor to die at 24!
