The 10th of 20 sketch cards done (the first one worked on, hence the intense smudging) for the Night of the Living Dead trading card series by Unstoppable Cards.
The card stock was…difficult to work with, so a slightly different look here…also, usually I post cards in the order I draw them, but I’ll deviate from that and place them in the film’s sequence just for kicks

A bit of a story behind this series. Half way through the project the B7 people decided they wanted firmer control on the card set (in preparation for their relaunch of B7, presumably) and then rejected all but a few artists.
So while not pack-inserted my cards are being used as “incentives” and/or “redemptions”.
