The Walking Dead: What's Next For The Governor?

By Dalton Ross on Nov 10, 2013 at 10:01PM  @DaltonRoss

[SPOILER ALERT: Read on only if you have already watched Sunday’s episode of The Walking Dead.]

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Okay, we saw the Governor standing there staring ominously at the prison. What is he looking at? Is he looking at Rick in terms of I want to get that sucker? Or is he looking at the building in terms of I want to get THAT sucker? Or both?Boy, this guy can just not get over it, can he? I guess being bested by Rick and the prison gang both in Woodbury and then again at the prison just wasn’t enough for the Governor. The one-eyed baddie disappeared at the end of last season in the wake of gunning down his own Woodbury townsfolk in a fit of madness, yet there he was at the very end of tonight’s episode of The Walking Dead, staring at both Rick and the prison itself from a distance through his one good eye. What does that bastard want this time? Why is he there? What the hell has happened to him since last season? And what is going to happen next? We went to the man-in-charge, showrunner Scott M. Gimple, for answers. (Also make sure to check out our interview with the Governor himself, David Morrissey.)

SCOTT M. GIMPLE: That is such a good question. I’m not going to answer that, but I would say that’s a good question, that’s another good question, and that’s a great question. But I will tell you this: You’ll get the answers to those questions pretty damn quickly.

EW: So what can we expect to see in the next episode?
GIMPLE: We will be really getting into who this guy is, to further define this guy. He did something very pronounced at the end of the season that defines him a certain way that affected him a great deal. That’s changed him a great deal. So we will see who this man is now. There will absolutely be a flashback element to filling in some of those blanks. More so, I would say, than we did with rejoining the prison.

EW: The Governor truly went off the deep end last time we saw him. What can you tell us in terms of where his head is?
GIMPLE: We know what he did. He killed those people. We know that Rick welcomed basically the remaining people in. That town did very much make up that man’s identity. And his purpose. And everything he was fighting for. And asking the question, what’s left after that?— we’re gonna see. We’re gonna answer that question. We’re gonna show that.

EW: When we met the Governor last season he had almost this messiah complex and really thought he was the savior for that group of people. How does he view himself now?
GIMPLE: I don’t know if I’d go with messiah complex, but I will say he was quite proud of what he had done. He was very comfortable in the identity he had forged for himself, and the purpose that gave him. Being stripped away of all these things brings him down to the core of who he is. And also, I would say the man that the Governor is in the zombie apocalypse at Woodbury is not necessarily the man he was before the turn. Being stripped of that identity puts him back at day 1 as far as who he is.

EW: This is definitely unchartered territory in that the comics did not follow this trajectory of the Governor surviving the assault on the prison and going on-the-run of sorts. Will we see any influence from the three Governor novels, perhaps?
GIMPLE: I did very much dig those novels very much. The new one just came out. I did not get an advance copy so I’m just getting into it now, but I love those first two novels, and absolutely they were inspiring. And it’s interesting because the Governor in the novels is a little different that the Governor in the comics. And of course the show is a little different than them both. I guess I just will say I very much dug those novels. We were talking a lot about those novels. I think they were inspiring to this story and there are some moments some people might sort of recognize, but it’s also pretty different.

EW: I’m going to throw your own words back in your face now…
GIMPLE: Back in my face!

EW: Absolutely! Because back in the summer when we spoke you talked about this season being like a remix because you were going to take big moments from the comics and incorporate them into the show but in new and different way, kind of like what we saw with Tyreese. So does that remix approach still hold true here in terms of what we may see with the Governor?
GIMPLE: It’s interesting because a lot of that remix stuff I spoke about, I pointed at different elements. like here’s this from the comic in a different way and here’s this from the comic in a different way. I’ve read the comics for so long now — first as a civilian and now working on the show — that sometimes I even forget the stuff that winds up in there being remixed. But with the Governor, absolutely there is stuff like that that fits under the umbrella in terms of what we might see coming up.

EW: It’s been a while since we’ve seen this guy. Is it nice to have this chess piece back in play?
GIMPLE: I am just very excited to dig into this character and that people will see all sorts of sides of him that we hinted at before. Just as I was totally curious about the audience reaction to what happened with Rick and Carol, there’s moment after moment regarding the Governor and his story where people might have those arguments on both sides. And I really want to hear those arguments. Not directly at me. I just want to overhear those arguments.

How To Dress Up Like A Zombie For Halloween - Great Costume Ideas

By Karen Leong Li

The popularity of the cable series The Walking Dead as well as movies like Zombieland and the Resident Evil films and even games like Plants vs. Zombies, mean that zombie costume ideas will be in demand. And a zombie costume can be as simple or as elaborate as you want.

Here are some suggestions:

Basic costume.

All you need to do is make your eyes look sunken by painting dark circles around it, put some fake blood around your mouth, then wear some tattered or disheveled clothes with dirt and blood splattered on them, and your costume is complete.

Decaying zombie.

To create the look of a zombie who is starting to decay, use white cream makeup on your face to make it pale and then highlight it using grey cream makeup around your eyes, nose and cheeks to give yourself a corpse-like skin tone and a lifeless look.

Bitten zombie.

One of the ways you can become a zombie is by being bitten by another zombie. Zombie costume ideas for zombies with bite marks involve creating fake bites using liquid latex or fake skin made from cornstarch. Apply the latex or fake skin with a q-tip in a ring and let dry. Paint the latex black and then paint the skin inside the ring red; you should also brush some red on the black area. Then add some dark blue makeup around the edges of the bite to suggest bruising; place some yellow blots at certain spots to make it look more realistic.

Rotting graveyard zombie.

Zombies obviously continue to decay despite the fact that they have been brought back from the dead. You can go full zombie with costumes that show rotting skin with bones visible underneath them, as well as torn and tattered clothes that suggest that the zombie has just climbed out of his or her grave. You can wear breastplates simulating exposed rib cages under your tattered costume to create this horrifying effect and then create the illusion of yellowed, decaying skin through holes in your shirt and pants.

Plants vs. Zombies

This popular game helped contribute to the current zombie renaissance and is also a rich source of zombie costume ideas since you can come as a Conehead or a Buckethead zombie or even a Football or Digger Zombie simply by wearing a generic zombie mask and then adding the appropriate accessories for the scary look.

Are Zombies Attracted to Second Hand Smoke?

Posted: Aug. 23rd. 2013 Are the Undead Attracted To Second Hand Smoke? Posted August 23rd, 2013 ZWN (AP) Ahsis, Briitish Columbia In the remote Canadian town of Ahsis, British Columbia, there has been an unusually high amount of reported zombie attacks. With a population of only 562, almost everyone in the town knows someone who has either been attacked by or turned into, a reanimate. However, there is one facet in particular that has scientists studying this small town. That is the realization that almost all of those attacked were habitual smokers. Darrel Drake, a 48 year old resident of Ahsis, was well aware that there had been reports of undead activity in the region. He and a neighbor helped capture a female undead only the week before. Local police advised them to remain vigilant because there was also a police report of at least one more roaming female zombie and an undead child. They knew the procedure. All night lights out in any unused parts of the house. No loud noises such as TV or music. No cooking of meats unless all windows were closed. Anything that might attract a zombie had to be considered. All children and pets had to remain indoors. However, Drake was a habitual smoker. 20 a day as a rule. His wife, Jennifer did not allow smoking in the house. And so despite all warnings, Drake would venture outside into the garden and sit under his favorite tree. No lights. No sound. But he would light up.  He was fatally mauled by the adult reanimate assailant, who authorities were tracking on July 27th. So savage were his injuries that he didn't reanimate. His upper torso, head and brains were almost entirely consumed. Studyshows connection The reason this incident caught the attention of the media is that it ties in with a recent study by the the New England Journal of Advanced Necro-Mortosis studies. In that report, it summized that undead people who were habitual smokers in their former lives, tended to be attracted to the smell of cigarette smoke. A prior sense memory that remains in their atrophied brain, still recognizes the habit and perhaps is even still addicted to the lure of smoking Nicotine. The female reanimate whom fatally attacked Darrel Drake was later captured and re killed. Her body was autopsied and it was found that she was a habitual smoker in her former life. In fact, 75% of all reported zombie attacks in Ahsis have been on people who were smoking at the time. All undead assailants captured were confirmed as being smokers in their former lives. A spokesperson for the Tobacco industry denied the validity of the study. She suggested that further studies were needed and the tobacco industry was funding its own private report to be released later in the year.

The latest Zombie Movies of 2013 and 2014

The latest Zombie Movies of 2013-14

World War Z with Brad Pitt

Zombies have of late gained a large amount of interest in pop culture. The reasons might be myriad - a morbid fascination with apocalypse situations, a metaphor for the way that most people allow themselves to be herded like sheep, a growing fear stemming from recent virulent diseases that have wreaked havoc on populations. Whatever the reasons may be, Zombies now have their own genre despite seeming mindless, no pun intended.

Though first featured in White Zombie (1932), it wasn't until the premier of Night of the Living Dead (1968) that Zombies in movies really garnered attention from the majority of the viewing public. A slew of Resident Evil movies later, Zombie movies were regarded as a completely action and horror oriented subject. With the release of Shaun of the Dead (2004) though, Zombie movies have been explored for their comic value, thus bursting the dam on what can be done with thousands of mindless, smelly creatures all intent on eating those still alive. The success of AMC's The Walking Dead, a zombie apocalypse survival television series, has promptly brought on the year of the zombie, with more than a dozen films and ventures that attempt to cash in on the success that these undead freaks of nature have achieved. Here we take a look at some of the Zombie movies set to be released soon:

World War Z - One of the biggest zombie movies to be released yet, WWZ stars Brad Pitt in the leading role as Gerry Lane, a United Nations worker whose task is to coordinate resistance and help stop the global Zombie epidemic that threatens to tear down human civilization. Based on the eponymous book by Max Brooks, the director, Marc Forester portrays the Zombie cadres like a colony of ants whose strength is in numbers. With a budget in excess of $200 million, Paramount Pictures is set to release the film in June of this year. This is likely to set a record as the highest grosser of Zombie movies 2013-14.

Warm Bodies - Based on a book by Isaac Marion, Warm Bodies is a Zombie romantic comedy that explores Zombie love. Jonathan Levine, who wrote the screenplay and also directed the movie, ventures into the untested by providing a Zombie's perspective. Nicholas Hoult stars as Zombie who shows signs of human emotions towards Teresa Palmer's character and the movie explores the possibility of humans and zombies living in a harmonious environment. Released early February of this year, this Zombie movie has already grossed over $100 million, making this a must watch for any Zombie movies lover.

The 4th Reich - Combining the two greatest villainous entities in Hollywood, this Sean Bean starrer terrifies movie goers with Nazi Zombies. Directed and written by Shaun Robert Smith, this World War 2 era movie portrays an elite team of a British Infantry Division as they go about killing Nazis and eliminating the threat of Zombies created by Nazi scientists during their experiments to create a superior human race. Set to be released late this year, The 4th Reich is another in a long list of WW2 movies, but with a slightly undead twist.

Invasion of the Not Quite Dead - A dark comedy thriller about the inhabitants of a small island off the coast of England that is turned into Zombie death trap by a deadly virus, this is one of the more entertaining Zombie movies, written and directed by Anthony Lane is not one to miss. Starring relatively well known Andrew Ellis and Ajay Nayyar, the movie promises a unique look at how a small group of survivors face the rigors and challenges of escaping Zombies.

Wyrmwood: This is an Australian movie set to be released in late 2013, with post-production work going on. The movie is styled after the Will Smith starrer I AM LEGEND, and falls in the action category of Zombie Movies 2013-14. Written and directed by Kiah Roache-Turner, the movie stars Jay Gallagher, Bianca Bradey and Leon Burchill. The story revolves around Jay Gallagher, whose character loses his family on the eve of a zombie attack. He teams up with a friend and together they drive through the Australian Bush to the safer interiors, battling the undead on the way from the comfort of a fortified van. This movie seems to have a better storyline when compared to many of the other Zombie movies 2013-14 has to offer.

R.I.P.D - Also known as Rest In Peace Department, is a Zombie action comedy that has a star studded cast. Ryan Reynolds plays a recently murdered cop and joins the likes of Kevin Bacon, Jeff Bridges and Mary-Louise Parker who along with others and forms a team of undead police officers. With a release date in mid July 2013, this Zombie film portrays the undead as the good guys who use their undeadness to fight crime. Directed by Robert Schwentke who has blockbusters like Red (2010) and The Time Traveler's Wife (2009) under his belt, this is one of the better Zombie movies 2013-14 and is sure to exceed all expectations.

The Harvard Zombie Massacre - Another Zombie movie that is presently in pre production, it is set in a Harvard University campus overrun with Zombies. The twist that sets this movie apart from the rest of the Zombie movies is that these particular Zombies aren't as mindless as one might suspect. Produced by Warren Zide of American Pie and Final Destination fame, the film chronicles how America's most brilliant minds can survive an onslaught from the most brilliant Zombies. This horror comedy written by Dan Hernandez and Benji Samit will be released late 2013 or early 2014.

Movies set for release in 2014:

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies - An adaptation of the classic Jane Austen story of a woman's quest for independence and love, the screenplay has been reworked to include her fight to eradicate a growing Zombie threat. Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy are provided with zombie flavored distractions from their pristine 19th century English manors and questions of morality and marriage are superseded by the need to survive. Though the film is still in its planning stage, its unique twist ensures that it will generate a great deal of interest, and not just with zombie movies lovers.

The Curse of the Buxom Strumpet - A dark comedy set in the early 1700's and starring Sir Ian McKellen and Dame Judi Dench, this Zombie movie focuses on the accomplishments of a lord of fictional Upper Trollop, a small town in Oxfordshire, England. Based on E'gad Zombies!, a short film by the same director, Matthew Butler who worked with Ian McKellen, this movie promises a showing like none other, partly due to the tremendous acting talent and also due to the unique settings. Set to be released early 2014, this is one of the Zombie movies that will set itself apart from the rest.

The zombies are taking over the movie theaters and cinemas, after the last few years which were dominated by the vampires and werewolves. Every big Hollywood studio and the not-so-big ones, not to mention the independent movie makers are trying to cash in on the latest craze for the undead, set off the by the popular television series. Zombie movies are invading the cinemas and theaters around the world and there seems to be no stopping the undead, anytime soon.

Ring In the Zombie Apocalypse With a Zombie Costumes - 
After years of joking about how we would survive a zombie attack and hit movies like Zombieland, the zombie revival chicken has finally come home to its unholy roost.

The United States is in the beginning stages of an all-out zombie apocalypse.

It seems the heat of the summer months has turned seemingly normal house moms and homeless men into raging cannibalistic lunatics. On May 26th 2012, 31-year-old Rudy Eugene chewed off around 80% of an innocent man's face. On June 12th 2012, a New York woman stripped naked, started attacking her three-year-old son, and attempted to strangle her pit bull. Reports of psychotic violence have surged. These crazy happenings have the whole country asking "What the what?"

Looking at many news headlines about these incidents, the answer seems clear: bath salts. Bath salts are apparently "the new LSD" according to people familiar with the drug trade and "the coolest thing ever" according to those involved in the drug trade. The main ingredient is Methylenedioxypyrovalerone or MDPV. It is a designer drug also known by the street name "spice." This drug when sold on the street can cause outbursts and extreme reactivity, but is not known to promote cannibalism.

But, let's be honest. Bath salts? I mean, do they come in calming scents and help my mom relax after a long day? This sounds like something The Man made up to keep us from the truth. How easy it is to pin the blame on innocent, law-abiding drug users. Too easy if you ask me.

I've got a better theory. Zombie virus.

That's right. Zombies. Can't live with 'em. Can't kill 'em because they're already dead. What is it about the zombie that keeps us begging for mercy and begging for more? Is it the cannibalism? Is it the cool grungy outfits? Well, we've been talking about them, making movies about them, mocking their techniques, and now they've arrived and are living among us. I don't know if the zombie virus is in the water, the bath salts, or both, but the point is: no one is safe.

I say that if you can't beat the zombies, join them. This Halloween, say hello to your new undead neighbors with super scary Zombie Halloween Costumes. From child to adult, these Scary Costumes are coming back to life in a major way. There are so many different kinds of zombies to choose from. You could be a robed zombie, a suited zombie, a doctor zombie, or a zombie still looking for gainful employment. You could even carry around a "foreclosed" sign or your zombie resume for a unique Recession Zombie look. Zombie unemployment is an issue not usually discussed in public discourse. Nothing will change if there's not a dialogue.

I once dressed up as a Zombie Bride for Halloween, complete with pale green face paint and dead bouquet of flowers. I went around moaning things like "Preeeeeenuptial Agreeeeement!" and "Aaaaaalimony!" Keep in mind that I was around 12 at the time. My costume was a major hit and proves that Zombie Costumes aren't just for grown-ups. There's nothing cuter or creepier than a Zombie Child. Get a Kids Zombie Costume and have him or her hunting for brains in no time.

No matter how you do it, get yourself infected this Halloween with a spooky Zombie Costume. With the world ending in 2012, you'll be all ready to greet your zombie overlords when the time comes. Live it up the dead way this holiday season with one of these terrifying costumes!

Host a Halloween Horror Movie Party

By Susie Smyth

Halloween has become the spooky fun holiday for kids to adults and teens in between. Why? When else do you get to indulge in overeating on candy, dress-up in costumes, paint your face and be someone or something that you could never be in real life? Like all holidays, hosting a party is a great way to celebrate Halloween. Hosting a "horror" movie night is a way to gather friends and family for an evening of refreshments and watching some very spooky movies together.



Here are some ideas to make this a very unique Halloween night for your guests:

Movie Theme
Attempt to find movies that represent Halloween, that are spooky, suspenseful, scary etc. You will find all kinds of movies available from "dark comedy", vampire romance to gory horror as well as thrillers that really send chills. You should have at least 3 to 4 movie selections and maybe more incase some have been seen by majority of your guests. Try picking some of the top vintage horror/thrillers to provide a better selection. Take into consideration your audiences' age, especially if young children are included. Save the really scary movies for the late night older guests.

Haunted Ambiance
Lighting is very important to any scary Halloween scene. So keep your lighting dim, play with colored light bulbs to give a shadow or dark effect. Consider candles. Choose various halloween decorations to create a special haunted place which adds to the eerie ambiance. While lights will be low, make sure that there is sufficient light to bathrooms and where refreshments are served. Try using strings of glowing or flickering Halloween lights.

Media Room
Ensure that everyone has a comfortable place to sit or lie to watch the movies. Use Lawn chairs if you must but do have adequate seating and attempt to place chairs so that every seat has good viewing. Provide pillows and throws for those whom need something to hide behind. Pillows on the floor will help provide alternate spots for those whom cannot sit for long.

Refreshments
There are lots of special Halloween recipes for refreshments. Depending on the time your party begins will help determine what you will serve. If early in the evening, than you may want to do pizza, later in the evening after attending to the "trick and treat group", than finger foods, munchies are probably more in tune for your party goers. When keeping the room darker, ensure that the food is placed in areas that are easily accessible. Try to serve food and drinks that if spilled will not stain.

Costumes
To dress up or not? Halloween is the one time a year that you get to dress and behave in a very unusual manner so take advantage of it. By having your guests dress-up in Halloween Costumes adds a special highlight to the evening. It is a Halloween Party after all. You can do a theme ie. Vampire Costumes and than show Vampire related movies.

With a little imagination and planning, the Halloween Horror Movie Night can easily become a tradition in your home and one that your friends and family will look forward to each year.

There are some great ideas of Costumes available to go with your Horror Movie Night. With halloween being the most important dress-up party of the year, you will want to look your best in a costume to die for. A classis Halloween tradition, that just keeps getting hotter and sexier, Gothic Vampires never go out of style.

Have a fun and safe Halloween!

Zombie Infested World - Burn Tutorial - Using Latex For A Burnt Wound Effect

burn tutorial?by *Sharpener

©2010-2013 *Sharpener

Ok, I didn't take any WIP photos of this one as it was done in educationalpurpouses for a makeupstudent of mine; there was no time=/

Anyways, I thought I'd explain alittle what to do to get this result, and go through the process:


First off rip of a couple of papertowel-pieces the size of the desired 3rd-4th degree burn (the curtled and open skin/wounds).

Apply a coat of wet latex to the skin (shave the area and wash with alcohol or something like it first) and applty the first layer of papertowel evenly over the skin.
(Use nontextured soft papertowels for this)

cover the applied paper with a thin layer of latex and apply the second layer of paper, this time you either stretch the skin and previously set layers of paper+latex in the OPPOSITE direction the nervthreades and muscles run across the body (in this case the muscles run from the elbow towards the hand, and so you need to stretch the skin across the arm instead of along it) and apply the paper, or you shape the paper as such before you let it dry. Cover with latex.

Last layer of paper. use small pieces of paper this time and apply them with latex in a NON-even fashion. You can mass them up into small disgusting sausages or rip them up as you go, either way, the unnaturallook of this last paper-layer will be mended by more latex

If you want some heatblisters or open wounds in this part of the wound cut them up now. Take a pen or something not lethally sharp but not rediculously blunt and peel a hole in the paper/latex. Now either cut a hole of it with like a nailscissor or something if you want the skin to have fallen of (fourthdegree burn only) or peel a little hole and fold the edges in to make a heatblister (mainly third degree burns). The one I've made in the middle is a radically big Heatblister (to explain and show how to do it to the people present) and the smaller ones are skin losages.

Do all of your desired BIG wounds at this point and when you are done lay a coat of latex over it all. Thin coats in the wounds and thick coates over the 3rd layer of paper (to smoothen the surface into a base from which to process further later on)

Be sure not to latex more than like a cm out from the paper to ensure you have enough space for the 1st and 2nd degrees later on.

If you have bigger wounds like the one on my arm there you might want to start reflecting over how the flesh or even bone underneath would react to the damage. Now as I said, the one in the picture is a compliation of various methods to educate people in different ways of work, but if I would have followed a specific line I would have probably made the bone underneath the skin somewhat burnt as it is so exposed and the 2nd degree burns more "wet", but enough about my life for now, just imagine(or google... ) what a real wound would look like and how the body reacts to this type of offence.
Where does it bleed the most? what type of skin roasts first? how deep does the bone lye in this part of the body? etc etc.

smoothen the edges of the wound with latex (still dont extend the area of the latex furthur than necessairy) and lay another coat over the surface of the 3rd degree and dry with hairdryer.

Once the latex is dry its time to start putting makeup on this layer (in order to propperly be able to cover it with more latex in other colors) Start of with a layer of black on the 3rd degree. make sure it enters all the cracks of the latex (for this, black is good because, even though RED will be the basecolor here, its allways better to have a darker color "shine" through than a light one, atleast when doing injuries). On with some fix-powder to settle the black color.

Now do an equal layer of red over all the black and fix with powder. This red color will now serve as our base or unhandled naked skin/musclemass. Take your allready used sponge of blac makeup and "drybrush" (WH-fans will know the meaning of this expression) black onto the textured surace, leaving the red color filling the cracks and gaps. Powder.

Now spray the wound with siliconespray and let dry. Powder again. Take a wet cloth and gently wipe and "clean" all of the powder and spray of (this will take some of the makeup off with them, but no worries, more will be applied later)
This procedure has now rendered the top latex surface unmergable with another layer. Place ONE more layer ontop of the 3rd degree (NOT IN the wounds) and dry with a hair dryer.

Once dry, peel open the top layer of latex to create a last brigade of normal skin, rendered cinged and ripped on top of it all. Redo the process of putting makeup on the original wound to refill the gaps left by the cloth (but not too much, a little white latex showing looks great as i reseambles burned, pigmentless skin). ExTREMELEY carefully drybrush someblack over the peeled last layer of latex.

Now the basig BIG one is done, place two layers of latex around the wound (leaving aprox 1cm of untouched skin between the latexed 3rd degree and these new layers in order to be able too more easily peel ut the 2nd degree burned skin) let dry. Peel the two-leyered latex upp from the edges facing the wound. You can also make spontanious blisters along this process with some more latex, or peeling the alleady existing latex into holes of thin skin.

Put a thin just "blushing" layer of red makeup where the skin is supposed to have peeled up from. powder...

Do this proces again with just one layer of latex and peel up. Don't put any makeup on it yet though. This skinlayer is just suppose to serve as the layer of skin the body is allways ready to peel in case of "emergensies" so no redness or blood yet.

Now take a piece of papertowel and put minimal amounts of red in it. Use this to genty flush the skin around he wound into an irritated, reddish color to give impression that the body is now working to control this wound and fix it. Put that amount x 2 inside the 2nddegree burnpeels. N

Now take your fines brush/sponge and gently drybrush all the peeled up edges in black; the closer they are to the burn, the blacker they are. Ergo, the outer peels are almost not black at all exept in the "middle" of the peel which is the one area that has been most exposed to heat.

Take the black sponge (need a sponge for this) an gently just tap the sponge around the wounds. This ccan e done randomely, just no more than afew shades (overdid mine...).

Now goooh! I use vaseline or siliconegel mostly. Apply a thin coat of whatever you are using furstof all in the cracks of the 3rd degree. Secondly in the heatblisters and thirdly in the vasinity of the peels (right where the skin is supposed to have peeled up fro, to create a oozing effect.

Last effort: Blood. irst of we are to line the inside edges of the open wounds with "scratchblood". This is a type of bloodeffect used to create scratches and other shallow wounds and cauterized bleeding. Apply this only to the inside edges of the wound.

Brush Unmixed theatrical blood (dark) in the open wounds (not much, this "burn" type of injuries cauterize the bloodvessels almost immediatelly and leave little or none left to actually bleed).

mix theatrical blood with scratchblood and alittle (!) fixingpowder in a small container. This creates a lightred bloodcolor to then be painted in under the peels and blisters. Take a brush and paint it on, and use a finger or unused sponge to even it out and erase some (creating a great effect of newly effected naked skin bleeding shallow from every vessel) focus on the already vaselined areas near the peels


If you wanna create the effect i did on the bottompicture, just pull some latex off and paint this bloodmix underneat, thass awl


Hope somebody understood and learned something!

Familiar snacks like Twinkies and CupCakes, shown, are returning but the business behind them has been overhauled.

As more than 50 million Twinkies start making their way to stores next week, the first order of business for the 83-year-old brand's new owner is to let customers know a classic is back.

But behind the return of the familiar cream-filled sponge cake is a leaner operation, free of the union contracts and the $1.3 billion in debt that saddled the brand's previous owners. With that clean slate, the new owner and chief executive, C. Dean Metropoulos, plans to launch an ambitious growth plan and avoid the problems that led to two Chapter 11 bankruptcies, the last of which ended in liquidation.

In his first interview about the company's strategy, Mr. Metropoulos said the new Hostess Brands LLC, based in Kansas City, Mo., will be focused on innovation, efficiency and getting more Twinkies in more places.

"Wherever you find a Snickers bar or M&Ms, you should be able to find a Twinkie," he said.

Some workers who are returning to the company are being paid significantly less than they were before the bankruptcy.

The previous distribution system involved roughly 6,000 drivers—all with union wages and pension benefits—delivering products to stores and placing them on shelves. The old Hostess distribution was governed by complicated work rules that required drivers to deliver bread and cakes on separate trucks, adding costs. Those delivery routes also reached only 50,000 of the country's roughly 150,000 convenience stores, and left some pockets around the country entirely without Twinkies.

Now Mr. Metropoulos is using third-party drivers to deliver products to retailers' warehouses, which he said will enable big expansion. He expects to reach a total of about 110,000 convenience stores by year-end—and to start reaching dollar stores, club stores, drug stores and vending machines, where its products previously were absent.

Mr. Metropoulos's workforce isn't unionized and he is moving to automate and improve the capacity of the plants, while eliminating products that sold poorly or were only sold regionally, such as jelly doughnuts and Strawberry CupCakes.

The old Hostess had approximately 19,000 employees, many of whom worked on brands such as Wonder Bread that Mr. Metropoulos's group didn't buy. The new Hostess is planning to have about 1,800 workers when it is fully staffed in the next couple of months.

Shoppers picked up Twinkies at a Jewel-Osco grocery store in Chicago in December.

The International Brotherhood of Teamsters declined to comment. The Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco and Grain Millers International Union didn't respond to requests for comment.

Mr. Metropoulos also nixed approximately 600 outlet stores that Hostess used to operate, where soon-to-be-stale products were sold at a discount. He said those competed with nearby convenience stores selling the items at full price, so he and his partners didn't buy the outlets, which closed in November.

A bankruptcy judge in March granted Hostess permission to sell most of its snack cake brands to Mr. Metropoulos's private-equity firm, Metropoulos & Co., and Apollo Global Management LLC,APO -0.29% for $410 million, following liquidation proceedings that began in November. The two firms wouldn't disclose their ownership stakes in the new Hostess, which also cranks out snacks including CupCakes, Ho Hos, Ding Dongs, Zingers, Suzy Qs and Sno Balls.

McKee Foods Corp., maker of Little Debbie snack cakes, bought the former Hostess's Drake's brand coffee cakes and other desserts, while Flowers Foods Inc.FLO +0.57% and other buyers split the Hostess bread brands.

The 67-year-old Mr. Metropoulos has been involved in 78 consumer acquisitions in the last 25 years, including Pabst Brewing Co. in 2011. A spokeswoman said his deals' average return on investment exceeds 44%.

The old company also was weighed down by debt, preventing it from investing in its 11 plants, all the while rivals operated more automated, efficient bakeries.

The owners purchased four of those plants and are investing $100 million to upgrade them. They plan to spend another $75 million to $80 million to open a fifth plant next year.

The debt and hefty pension obligations that the old Hostess faced also prevented it from investing in product innovation or marketing. Consumers seeking healthier products abandoned Twinkies, while those who still wanted indulgent treats grew bored of the same old assortment.

With lower overhead, Mr. Metropoulos said he can now afford to spend money on research and development.

"There's no question we want to innovate around flavors and textures," Mr. Metropoulos said.

He's already invested in making some of the existing products richer tasting. For example, the company reformulated the CupCakes with dark chocolate rather than milk. Those and other subtle product changes have led to a 9% increase in ingredient costs that Mr. Metropoulos said will be offset by production efficiencies.

The new Hostess also plans to pour money into marketing. A multimillion-dollar marketing campaign dubbed "The Sweetest Comeback in the History of Ever" will tout the Twinkie's return via outdoor banner ads, a Hostess food-truck tour and social media.

Mr. Metropoulos said he and his sons, Daren, 30, and Evan, 32, who will be involved in promoting the brands, also will likely use "guerrilla" marketing techniques. Celebrity pitchmen are likely.

After Metropoulos bought Pabst, it enlisted comedian Will Ferrell to pitch Old Milwaukee beer. Pabst has also focused on promoting its regional brews, such as Lone Star, in Texas, whose sales have increased 26%, on average each year since 2011, according to a spokeswoman. Professional wrestlers endorsed Chef Boyardee, a brand Mr. Metropoulos revived before selling it and other packaged foods toConAgra Foods Inc. CAG -0.59% in 2000 for $2.9 billion.

Mr. Metropoulos said he expects to quickly achieve sales of $1 billion, equal to sales the products had prior to liquidation, and that he expects the business to be profitable in the first year of operation.

But first, the Twinkies have to reach their destinations. "I worry about it all the time," said Mr. Metropoulos, who said he got far more orders than he anticipated.

In addition to the 50 million Twinkies that will be shipped to 100,000 stores in the first two weeks of the launch, Hostess has gotten orders for nearly 40 million Hostess CupCakes and 6 million bags of Donettes, which are small donuts. The four bakeries are running two shifts a day, seven days a week to fulfill the orders.

"I do have concerns" about glitches, he said. "We have living people making products with lots of ingredients and trucking firms we have to rely on, but we feel confident."

In coming months, he said, Hostess will also start developing healthier products. Mr. Metropoulos said they could include whole grains, come in the form of lower-calorie snack packs, be gluten-free or contain stevia, a natural sugar substitute.

"Those are the categories we're exploring," he said.
