Many thanks to Sous Vide Chef Jason for sending over this article. Have you ever wondered what you would look like if you succumbed to a zombie virus and became one of the undead? Have you ever thought your zombie caricature would make for a good gift? Would you like to stare at your corpse in a perpetual state of rot as it wanders the urban wasteland looking for nothing but brains … brains … brains?

If you answered yes to any of those questions, see a psychologist who will prescribe lots and lots of drugs. But before you make an appointment, make sure to visit Martin Whitmore’s website. Believe it or not, he’s in business to make you dead and from looking at the posted images, he’s quite good at it.

From the site:

Get immortalized… as an undying zombie! I’m teaming up with Philip Hynes, a sculptor in Wales who does amazing work, to make it possible for you to get yourself (or your friends, family, or worst enemy) sculpted as a zombie! … Philip will sculpt your undead likeness, I’ll paint it, and we’ll send it off to you! As each zombie is unique and custom-made, you can expect to get yours about 4-6 weeks after you place your order. You can’t rush perfection… and who would want to?

Check it out. These statues look awesome and creepy. Who would have thought that being dead would be so cool?
