Last night we ordered some pizza at the LHS and it was taking awhile to be delivered so I decided to tinker with the four monkey heads and this was the outcome of the hour long wait.

The far right one is looking like a Ferringi from Star Trek...got to get his ears rounder in shape.

I've got teeth on this guy. All of them need sharp noses as Macaques do...I'll putty that in later while these cure.

Cheers,
Richard

Looking suitably simian Richard. Nice work. With all those open mouths you are going to need teeth though LOL…..

Rick, I'd be careful how head is being used. :tongue-out3::smiling6::tears-of-joy::tears-of-joy:

Tim, I'll need some help from my Orthodontist schoolmate but he's London based and too far.

Great job Richard

Thanks Neil.

Yup, the canines are much longer. Most times you won't see their set if teeth but just the tips if the canines protruding under the lip until they bear their gums then you see the full set of teeth.

Hi, fell asleep at the LHS but when I woke up instead of working on the ships I brought to do the PE railings I worked on the monkey heads.
Basically reshaped the mouth to be smaller with added nose and eyelids.

There are eleven here and will add the twelfth to make it 12 monkeys. There was a movie with this title and wonder what it means.
Am working on the tail with brass wire.

Cheers,
Richard

Twelve Monkeys refers to(I think) an existential saying that if you gave twelve monkeys with typewriters an infinite amount of time, eventually they would produce the complete works of Shakespeare..... I think it was a Terry Gilliam film, but I've never seen it

Nice looking herd of heads there Richard.......they all remind me of the proverbial "Sock Monkey"

Remember the film as complex with some excellent portrayals.
