Templates to Make a Zombie


Head/Neck/Eyes (if you choose to include them, theyre the top two patterns on the right) The neck is the template on the top left. Everything under the neck and eyes is a part of the head.


Left Arm

Torso

In order to build a paper zombie graveyard, you need the following items:
1) An old book that you don't mind never reading again. It works best if it's a hardback.
2) Adobe Illustrator
3) Red paint, Acrylic will work best, but watercolor will work also
4) An exato knife, scissors work as well, but it will be a lot harder to make the tabs and details.
5) Glue, I used a glue stick but liquid glues work well too
6) A cutting board
7) Ripped out pages from the book mentioned above
How to make the zombie:
1)  Print out all of the templates onto the ripped out pages of the book
2) Cut out the head template (not the neck or eyes)
3) Glue the tabs together, you should have a spherical shape. 
4) If you choose to include eyes, cut them out now and glue the tabs together. Then attach them to the                 head. If you don't want to include them, and have a gash in the zombie's brain, then leave a                     hole.
5) Cut out and attach the neck to the base of the head.
6) Next cut out all of the parts of the torso template
7) Glue all of the tabs together. Finish a section/ strip before you move on, they will literally come                       together in the format of the template. 
8) Cut out the left arm. You do not need a right arm simply because he is a zombie and it fell off in                       battle...
9) Glue all the tabs together and attach it to the torso
10) Lay down the extra pages from the book and paint them red. Let it dry for an hour or two, flip it over and do the other side
11) Cut the painted pages into thin strips. 
12) Crumble the paper and stuff some of it into the zombie's head, leave some hanging out
13) Glue the remaining strips to the book under the zombie, make them run all over the page, these are                his intestines.
14) Cut out tomb stones, trees, and crosses to make the book look more like a graveyard.
