I made this for my friend Kelly's birthday. She likes cute things and she likes zombies so I modified this plushie to create the Zombie Hello Kitty.

I started with a basic Hello Kitty plushie (about six inches tall), tossed out the tropical print dress (Kitty's dress, not mine - I don't look good in tropical prints), removed part of the scalp, sewed in some brain matter (shiny purple cloth with creases sewn into it on a few sheets of fleece for thickness), used some of the leftover scalp to twitch one eye, then put some zombie teeth in (Sculpey with acrylic paint).

I think it's the teeth that really make it work. Until I added the teeth, it was just mildly weird. Once the teeth were in, it was suddenly uber-creepy. I mean more creepy than Hello Kitty usually is.

I kind of got the idea from the Hello Kitty "Angel" line of products. When I saw those, I thought, "Hey, when did Hello Kitty die?" Then I thought, maybe sometimes Kitty comes back wrong.

Muahahahahaahaa!

Hey, did you ever see that Cinderella cartoon of Hello Kitty? Everyone else is a cat but they have mouths in their smaller heads and their hands have fingers so Kitty is the only one with a huge no-mouth head and mitten hands. She doesn't even have real feet until she tried to put on the glass slipper and her foot suddenly appears. Creeeepy.

Anyway, seems like Kelly liked it and will be keeping it on her desk at work. Happy Birthday, Kelly!
