That's really well done. Can you post of full pic? Are the feet sculpted or regulat mego boots?

Thanks! I'll be posting full pics as soon as I can get a decent pic. The feet for now are good old fashioned boots. That is one thing I keep going back and forth on with her and also with the female Orangutan I did a while back. The boots seem appropriate to have the figure blend with the other Mego apes but part of me wants to do more realistic feet.

So I didn't take any new pics but I have since went back and painted the "furry" part of her hands black to resemble, well, fur. Hair? And the regular female black hero boots are gone (they just looked too "booty" for me). I replaced them with black female pirate/catwoman boots. Big improvement. Now they blend more with the rest of the Mego POTA figures. Thanks again for all the great feedback!

Hey gang. I have this figure on Ebay and it's ending tonight. I thought I might put togther an accessory to put in with her if I have time before I send her out this Wednesday. Does anyone have any thoughts on what may be appropriate? A scroll? A pouch? Not sure if I will have time, but If I do, wanted to see what ideas were out there? Thanks!

I'm guessing a frying pan to hit Urko with. I'm glad you changed the outfit to purple. The orange was like WTH. Are you gonna get heads out to the public?

Ha! I like that idea. I considered a rolling pin with the same idea! I didn't post that I have her on Ebay specifically though I think a few people here know she is up for auction. Maybe I'll post a quick note in the Auction Watch. Thanks!

Frying pan/rolling pin, it's all the same. Gorilla abuse must be stopped in our lifetime. (or before they kill us).:grin:

I like the fact that you decided to use the female "pirate boots", trimmed I assume? Good idea.

Regarding accessories, I always thought that a WOz Scarecrow diploma would make an excellent POTA scoll accessory with a new glyphic sticker. It's WWMD, imo.
