Description
-EDIT-What a popular piece! So popular, in fact, that people feel free to rip it off, remove my signature from the corner, and re-post it as their own. They're even kind enough to grant CC licenses on my behalf so that other people can feel free to re-use it without ever knowing who drew it.
When I start using really huge, ugly watermarks, heavy signatures, or just stop posting artwork like this to public galleries, you'll know why. For instance, I used to let people DL a 1200 wide, un-marked version of this piece. Now I don't. Sorry about that, folks.
-END EDIT-
More zombies! Now with additional firepower! Because the job demanded it!
I think there were some zombies with guns in Romero's Land of the Dead. Not to worry, they have terrible aim.
-EDIT-
Augh! How could I forget Versus?! The ultimate armed zombie movie. Go look for it, it's pure awful awesomeness.
-END EDIT-
Drawn in CS3 on a Cintiq 18SX. Lightboxed the guns (painfully obvious on the Beretta I think), the rest is pure freehand. I'm sorry about the cut & paste birds, but I was in a rush at the end there. Please don't feed me to them. Click "download" to check out a larger version.

Reminds me of The Whisperers from The Walking Dead.

Everybody is saying that we're fucked, but the main enemy in doom 1 and doom 2 are zombies with guns.

I feel like their aim would be just terrible. No fine motor control at all. Half of 'em ain't even got eyeballs no more. And they're hardly the most agile of targets. Just gotta remember to aim high into the horde.

Hello. Β Awesome picture. Β I like to ask permission to use your picture for the promotion of my zombie book. Β I'd like to use it as the image in some FaceBook ads I'll be running.

I appreciate the asking, but it's not mine to promote. The image belongs to Humoring the Fates Inc, you'd have to contact them for usage rights. www.fates.com

Presumably? It's an old concept piece I did for a studio many years ago, I can't really recall the particulars.

Reminds me of an Idea I sketched up a while back

Man's only hope is to hide until the zombies succumb to their decomposing as they walk, or turn on each other for their horrid ravening.

Sorry, but I can't give permission for that. This image was produced for a client (Studio Fates) and they hold the license for its usage.

Hah!
The part of the Flood that always freaked me out hardest was the little squirrel-sized buggers that came at you in swarms. I can deal with Flood shooting at me, but those little ant-pile swarms are ammo-sinks.

Find an assault rifle or smg or plasma weapon and they're done for

Ahhh, such an ammo-sink! Each bullet takes out one, but there's a kajillion of the bloody things and they move fast! It's totally the Aliens moment, as it's meant to be.

Yeah whoever thought of the idea for infection flood is a sadistic genius

I'm sorry, but I can't give permission. This was a WFH piece for Humouring the Fates, and as such the licensing rights lie with them.

AH CRAP, I THOUGHT THE ONES THAT RAN WERE BAD ENOUGH.
GREAT PIECE.

It would make for an interesting story -- zombies with guns attacking a farmhouse or apartment building where the survivors are unarmed.
