I wish you guys could really come over and have some of that apple pie I am about to make. I always make the crust from scratch. If anybody wants to recipe, I'd be happy to share. It's the best tasting apple pie ever.

Recipe? Send us a slice!!

Working on El Presidente. Here is his current state:

And a couple more cigaretten shots:

Jess- I love the creativity you used for these photo shots! The towel on her head and cigarette holder is very Kim Hunter!

 

[Jessica]

Angel--thanks for pointing out the hair imbalance. I didn't see that...I need to add more hair and just needed this layer to cure. I'll watch out for it as I add more hair.

 

[Hasslein]

Jess the eyes on the figure are great, they really accentuate it. That was a great choice to sculpt with.

 

[Jessica]

Here is El Presidente. I still need to add more hair around his jowls to even them out, and also to the left side of his head, but he's coming along nicely.

I think you need to quit your job and come and work with me. I like your poses Jessica.

I hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving. I got back late today. Jess That sculpt you're working on is looking really good. It looks like Donald Sutherland. I guess he would make a great looking ape.

By the way, I am totally moved out and back to the East Valley!

 

[Jessica]

Congratulations on your new move, Kfog. May it be the start of something better and brighter!!

Sticks--you will be excited to know that I just paid $14 total for a loose Playmates Uhura. Hopefully the person I paid is honest and will send her to me soon. I also just sent out your cloth pieces today. I never made it last week.

Anybody check out the "Channel of the Apes" programing this weekend on the Fox Movie Channel?

Well, I FINALLY saw that uncut Conquest version. Wow! It is interesting to see how much a little gratuitous violence can change a film. Personally, I think this ending works better... the editing of those final scenes are far more smoother than before. But the film ends in way more of a darker note. And bloody.

I don't think my 9 year old is ready for this cut.

Boy, Jessica that ape is sure coming along... well done!

 

[Jessica]

What type of body is this and how do I remove the head without damaging it, like the one next to El Presidente?

 

[Jessica]

OK guys...before and after. Once he's all painted up and is wearing the correct outfit with all the beautiful hieroglyphs, he'll definitely be rocking the part.

 

[Jessica]

Here is Dr. Maximus in progress (because I didn't want to waste the Apoxie)...

I'm not too happy with his muzzle. I'll probably sand down and re-do...

love

How about making an Astronaut or wild human out of the Bearded Guy?

Also, your sculpting is impecable Jess! I can't wait to see it painted. Beautifull job!

I suppose I could do that, but I prefer apes above men, which is why I didn't mind breaking off his neck to see if I could reverse-engineer.

Thanks for the props, guys. Central City needs more gorillas and orangutans...and chimps. Just practicing the sculpting. Someday I hope to do Virgil, too. I just decided to go with Dr. Maximus because I had a screenshot of him handy.

The bearded guy is the figure I use for Kolp "Conquest"
