You say you're not good enough,
but to me you're beyond perfect.

You say you're not pretty enough,
but to me you're a supermodel.

You say you're ugly on the inside,
but no one could be more beautiful.

You say you don't want to be mine anymore,
but I don't understand what I did wrong.

And now your love for me rots away,
but mine will always linger.

Was talking to `adonihs about a portrait piece, what I could do that's unique and complex. He steered me in the zombie direction, and it just clicked, being as I'm a huge zombie fan, but never had the guts to try my hand at doing a real piece.

One of the things I wanted to convey with this is not just the undead aspect, but the idea that there's still something human about her, something that still pulls you in and creates a connection.

Many thanks go to `adonihs with his help on this. Without his input, it wouldn't be as horrifying or grotesque.

You can view details here. Also, you can see the reference I used here. I'm sure a lot of you recognize her from MGS4, she just seemed like a good fit.

Whoaaa. I do not have the words to express what I feel right now.
It's scary, yet beautiful. So realistic.

She still seems human because of her eyes. Their expression is one that requires cognative awareness to assume. Zombies and most animals lack sentience, that same sentience is still present here.
