    Ape Cornelius



    Here's my work in progress. What do you guys think? Not so purty, huh? I know...still needs work!!! I'm going to go cross-eyed redoing his teeth, but he's too buck-toothed. It's only paint, right?

    Yeah,.. I dunno, I don't think he is too Buck toothed. I like it. But the character does have a bit of a "Worried" look on his face,... not sure if thats true to the character,.. I know Nothing.

    Great Start on the Paint Work So far Jess.

    I like the skin tone, it's not a bad match... It's your custom and all, but myself, I'd skip the teeth...

    Teeth are gone! I also smoothed out the skin, so I can't tell what damage I've done until tomorrow because my camera sucks with a flash....

    Absolutely love it. Great job Jessica.

    The one thing I see, (and please take it for what its worth) is that his head looks a little narrow, or too tall. If you are aiming for Cornelius from the first film, his hair was wider, or maybe not as tall.

    I think I need to give him more hair, Chris...right now the head is very narrow. He looks a bit like Elvis, I am told...I added hair to the back of his head, but I need to add more to the top sides of his head and make it fuller. Luckily, hair add-ons are not a big deal.
