Gone to the DogZ, zombies after a decade.

[McBonkhead 83]

Concept artist here with DayZ on the brain.

 

I was thinking what might happen after a decade or so of things falling apart. I also got to thinking what would happen if the virus advanced like leprosy due to wear-and-tear; Slowly grinding feet and lower legs to stumps at the knees and a similar effect happening to the arms as crawling became more efficient.

 

I call them DogZ because they move on all fours, I call the DogZ because the zombies that advance to this stage still manage to move just as fast a dog and full sprint. I call them DogZ because this is DayZ dammit - No other name would do.  :D

 

I hope you like the things you see.

 

Happy hunting all.

Nice work :beans: not sure about lepers but I do like the concept in general and the opportunities for more things to beat down with my axe.

Varying stages of decomposition is a rather sexy idea...

This disturbs and intrigues me at the same time, Well done.

Zombies ARE all intents and purposes lepers, so in due time they would become looking like them?

Disagree?

Read what leprosy does to you, zombies are basically lepers.

Yes I've always wanted this , we have to admit the dayz mod zombies look pathetic , not scary at all , I realize their not supposed to be "undead" by dean rockets interpretation of zombies but the leper idea woul explain why they would fall apart ... Love the idea of fighting a horde and after their all dead a hanging zombie drops from the rafters of the ceiling and kills the new guy hahah ;)
