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

[Jessica]

I better log off and stop all this babbling or else everyone might confuse me for Jessica.

Hey!!! I can't help it--I've got trigger fingers...

Angel, I have butterflies in my stomach...waiting and waiting for the day to end so you can let us know what happened with Armando. I am hoping for the best. I think she must have gotten it right...I hope I don't hear your scream on this side of the Mississippi....

Congrats on selling that Caspy head. Sometimes it's better not to deal with Evilbay.

Snick, I can make a Burke shirt for you in exchange for that yummilicious backpack!!! My human arrived from that Toy store than Angel posted so I can get the sizing correct.

Duane--I just figured out what Enaud is on my way to work while stuck in traffic. Duh!! Glad to see you are here...

Snick - You must be impressed with the number of ape heads vs. the quality. None of them are even done yet.

Snick did you make a mold of the backpack?

The heads look like they were painted really well. I thought they were finished.

The backpack has been molded.

JESS - I acutally need Virdon's shirt (the reddish color). In reality I need Burke too but Virdon is the first on customising block. I'd gladly throw some cash your way if you wanted to make both.

I forgot to say that I took a saw to my LG's left hand this morning, the one resting on the table. I noticed that the sleeve was in a wrong angle to begin with, and the hand was also not angled properly---I sawed off the bottom part of the sleeve just above the hand, and then I broke off the hand in chunks. I left a mess for me to vacuum later tonight when I get home. I will try to rework the left hand tonight.

 

[Jessica]

Snick--I know that Hasslein reminded me who is who but I still keep getting the two mixed up. I am not sure if I have the right fabric for that one yet--maybe I do. I think I have a pair of pants that I don't like anymore, but I need to look at the screenshots again from Angel. Don't worry about fronting the cash. I really love that backpack.

 

[Jessica]

Kfog, I forgot to say good luck with the painting of your LG--or finding a painter. Have you ever tried painting yourself? Maybe you should try your hand at painting...??

 

[Protozaius]

By the way, has anyone ever had their Law Giver sculpt painted? My painter has not written me back, so I think that I am out of luck going that way. Any suggestions?

I'm patiently awaiting the arrival of my painted Lawgiver as well. It's at the painter's lair as we speak... but I dare not ask him anything even close to an ETA, fearing that it might tack on another week or two to the wait.

Them artists are a temperamental lot.

And Jess, I have tried my shaking hand at painting myself over the years and the results make the monkeys cry.

And Angel, there's no new news to report... I work at a theater and we have been busy getting ready for the summer splash of films so I have only time to lurk here at thread but not post.

JESS - Notta problem. I'll make sure you'll be swimming with pix before you start. You don't have to buy the material I'll keep my eyes open and find something suitable. I just need you to thread the machine and weave your magic. If you are going to make Armando's jacket can I somehow get into the mix with that too?

ANG - I'm glad Armando arrived! That's great news.

 

[Protozaius]

I'm glad Armando arrived! That's great news.

Me too... I can't wait to hear and/or see the results.

 

[Jessica]

Snick, it would be awesome if you can find the material for Virdon's shirt. I've been looking and I would prefer the right color and not have to deal with fabric dye. Armando's jacket looks scary...I will need to have in hand a jacket with the right proportions and I can use that as a pattern. I won't take apart the jacket--I will lay it down on the fabric and cut around it. It's what I do for my kid's PJs. I've got your back when we cross that bridge.

 

[Jessica]

PZ, I am glad to hear you are well--just busy. And our poor Jungle has been living a nightmare.

I am thinking of Ironman and Sticks and hoping all is well.....

I think those are the main players of Central City. Did I forget anybody? Most of Ape Council have posted within the last week...even Hasslein! And now, Duane

 

[angelofmusic2112]

Dang that girl sure writes an awful lot!

 

[Jessica]

WELLL?????????? What about Armando? I haven't heard your screaming yet....so maybe he's ok?

I don't know why I am waiting so nervously....

Am I going to hear that growl before the gorillas charge through the cornfield?

 

[Ironman1188]

Looks good to me.

 

[Jessica]

YESSSSSS!!!! He looks frickin' GREAT!!!! He looks as wonderful as Snick's Brent!!!!!

 

[Jessica]

This calls for a couple of dancing Chewies and some happy bananas....

:chew :chew

 

[Jessica]

Yes...BEAUTIFUL eye candy....luscious and scrumptious

Jess - Someday soon, you can have your circus Armando feed your "horsey" a carrot while Caesar rides the pony under the circus bigtop...

 

[Jessica]

Of course! Except that I will have to sculpt a larger carrot and get a larger horsey!

Wow--I am sooooo relieved that the Armando sculpt came out so well. So...who's the next sculpt and who will lead the charge...you or Snick? Hopefully it will be an APE?????

JESS - Excellent! Project Virdon and Armando are now in effect. I have a jacket. Feel Free to rip it apart seam by seam.

ANG - Armando is perfect! Thank you for handling this. There was a lot that went into getting this head made so we could have a great figure for our collection. You Did It and THANK YOU!!!!
