    So as a few of you know I have been working on getting my Gorilla baby out into the world. Here are a couple of test shots so far. Hoping to have some for Designer Con.

    Yessir, made by my pals at Veracious Vinyl. The pulls are on black vinyl and as you can see that head is super shiny.

    I like that head. But it looks more like a turtle than a gorilla. But still very promising.

    Maybe he's not a gorilla. Maybe he's a random ape. Made of slime, a 'Slime Ape'...

    thanks guys. these are both test pulls. the arm molds are in production as I type this. if all goes well I should have full figures in hand very soon. hoping to have a small run painted for Designer Con and possibly a few blanks.

    It looks more like a lizard than ape to me, but I'm an idiot, so...
