    Long Live the KING!! KONG!!

    After seeing my other Kong in pics I decided to take another shot at him. I have been looking at Oni Masks a lot for my next King so some of that ended up in his face. I wanted to make him a mutated Ape/Oragutan/Yeti instead of a straight up gorilla. After I was mostly done I discovered Gigantopithicus, the largest prehistoric ape and the animal that is suspected of being the Yeti or Bigfoot. Himalaya fur shaved down in placesand dirtied up with paints. Hands are Marvel Icons Beast, head, chest and feet sculpted by me.











    Kong's got a tree!!!




    Gojira's about to go for a ride

      Nice interpretation. I like the creative license with Kong. Very creative and well done.
