Glad you're feeling better Richard. I hope the tail extensions fix the monkeys in place ok.

Well done Wichard Wabble...the tails should go a long way towards stabilizing their stance. Glad you are on the mend....too much on your plate to be loafing around in bed. ;)
Yes and only three weeks to go...
Glad you're feeling better Richard. I hope the tail extensions fix the monkeys in place ok.
I hope so too or else on the trip up to Penang the monkeys may look like they celebrated Oktober Fest.

Cheers,
Wabble

No wonder the one at the front is pulling that face after such an insertion! :surprised:
:tears-of-joy: Didn't see that but it is quite comical. The tails have been puttied and painted. I've painted the fruits on this guys left hand...the long length of stem protruding from the back of his palm will aid in securing him to the tree.

Gonna look the Bomb with all the Sh*t hitting the fan at once, there should be plenty to capture one's attention! :nerd: ;)

Speaking of Sh*t I may add some innards of damaged ripe fruit spewn in certain places. Thought of keeping that to the last before letting you guys on it. Have been toying with the color and texture of the Sh*t and have decided for a yellow orange jelly like substance with black seeds if that is possible. One of the little things to capture attention and add points. It could work the other way round and if not executed well may subtract points.

Totally superb.
Thank you Jim.
Too late for that Richard......looks like the fireworks have started!! :tongue-out3: ;) :thumb2:
Rick, I've been shuffling them around to get the best pose which I thought I had at the beginning but they're surely making a monkey outa me.
And suddenly it all fits together. Brilliant vision and execution Richard.
Nearly altogether bit loads more to do with fine detailing and forced highlights. Thanks Andy.

Cheers,
Wabble

Monkey dio as it stands now with lots of little fine detailing like the corners of the bridge shrubbery around new areas and populating small plants to create scale. The ground floor of the road and bridge needs leaves, dusting and moss.

Not much time left.
