Save the Planet of the Apes!!! - PIX ADDED!!

Cool. Put me down for a canteen if you mold/cast them. If anything I can offset the costs.

The gorilla family looks great! Excellent job.

Thx for showing off your Battle chair. You have shown me what went wrong with mine and how to fix it. What a great site. It's like a lesson in making apes.

Thanks SNICK, I appreciate the positive feedback. They're a very happy gorilla family. By the way, Jungle and I will tell you what we know. We want to see you, and everyone else, making neat ape stuff.

 

[angelofmusic2112]

Yes! Yes! Yes!

The thread is a good idea but don't think it would work for me but silver thread might be a good substitute for the dogtag necklace.

SNICK - If one thin strand of silver thread doesn't work, perhaps you can braid 3 strands of the silver thread together (to have it just a little bit thicker)...thus resembling a thin chain for the dogtags.

And lastly, here's Elta and her gorilla family. (Marcus Senior and Junior.)

Angel. as always you have out-done yourself! Just amazing! Where did you get the machine gun for your Battle Caesar?

I'll always tell you what I think and know...

And speaking of that, I love everything you've done thus far, all of it mind blowing! But...

Angel, that female gorilla, there is something wrong she has white hands, her hands don't match the skin color of her face.

And one more thing, if I may, Little Marcus's duds are a bit too vibrant of a purple in your pictures. Is it more subdued in real life?

All in all this has been a productive and active day here at I-man's "Save the Planet". All you guys rock! I go to work for nine hours and all creative hell breaks loose!

Snick... Maybe try silver thread and the smallest silver beads you can find.

KFog told me about that submachine gun about a year ago. I think I got it from Monkey Depot or War Toys.

The colors on Marcus are much more subdued in real life. (I used that picture of Little Marcus sitting on the lap of the Soldier gorilla for reference, not the movie.) The flash does brighten his clothes up an awful lot. His shoes and clothings match perfectly, yet the flash and camera don't see it that way.

As far as Elta's hands. Those hands were taken from Zira. I haven't tried painting them yet. Sometimes painting the rubber hands makes for tacky (sticky) hands. I guess rubber and paint don't really jive all that well. I guess I could cast her hands and then paint the white resin to look like gorilla hands.

 

[jungle jom]

I see, Angel. I had no idea that the rubber didn't take the paint all that well.

BTW, your Ceasar gun is wrong too. What we both need is a Danish Madsen M50 and if we're going to nitpick we need a new Caesar head.

I'm thinking about getting a gun for my Caesar figure. Is this Danish Madseon M50 available in 1/6 scale or is Angel's the closest we are going to get?

Currently, my Caesar is both unarmed AND thirsty.

Oooooo - That's a very nice Danish Madsen M50. You're right, that's even better!

 

[angelofmusic2112]

Thanks SNICK for the info you e-mailed me.! I located the OMEGA MAN Submachine Gun. Thanks so much!

 

[angelofmusic2112]

Here's the only SMG I can locate at WAR TOYS.

Hey Angel! How about using the dog tags from Cotswold collectibles!

It was Snick not Angel who was looking for the Dog tag chain.

If you go to November... I think she hijacked Angel's Baby Milo!

Whew! Zira’s baby wasn't high jacked after all! That lady did a good job customizing those ESCAPE clothes for Zira Jungle Jom. However, her red cloak, it's way too thick and bulky.

STICKS, where are you? Sit down and do some therapy at the computer! Talk to us buddy!

Hey Snick! What do you think of the cotswold dog tags?

Thanks for the correction Jom!
