Hey Guys,
I re-watched the zombie episode for fun and they did not have make-up on their hands and stuff. Now I want to know how to make zombie hands, BUT before you say "Just use white make up." look at this: http://partycity.com/cgi-bin/parties/costumes.cgi?name=Complete%20Zombie&parties=Halloween&productstype=Men&products=74904&zoom=1&start=41&originaltype=
Now it says it comes with "zombie Gloves" now what exactly are zombie gloves? I know i could just buy it but why buy it when I already have the make up. So my question is: How can I make a complete zombie costume with hand make up on the cheap with out having to spend $40!?
Thanks!

Well Their zombie gloves(had a pair) are just black glove but on the top of them is plastic and it is molded to look like bones.
They are quite lame.
Hands are diffacult But What I find works is get some latex gloves that are a bit two tight and paint them, add gore and fake finger nails cause if you just put Liquid latex on your hands it will look good untill you use them, once you move your hands the latex will start to peel up and sure it looks like peeling skin for a bit but it will come off and then your a zombie with normal hands, Other methods is as you said, paint your real hands , beyond that We'll just have to wait for wescog or Beck to chime in.:)

Use the stipple latex as shown in the aging episode. apply it to a clenched fist. when its dry, open your hand for the dry and cracked look. Experiment with different color makeups do give it a dead an rotting look.
