For the project I'm doing it has to be an original mythical creature, so I unfortunately can't use the pencil zombie. I'm having fun with this blob monster thing in photoshop though.
If you observe the front view I have sketched out for him he would be able to see both in front and behind him by looking to what would seem like "the side".
Monster thing can be a cool idea but the rendering does not give it justice, not sure what program you used but a bit more texturing and shading like you have the original drawing will make it look really cool maybe an alligator type of skin
