Hello!
Been lurking on the forum for quiet sometime and finally decided to join! You all are such talented creative people been kinda intimidated to jump into the conversation.
Well kinda stumped in the middle of a project and i think its time to get out of my bubble.
To make a long story short,been looking to start on a costume but wasn't sure what I wanted to make. I wanted something that was some sort of creature, something i could sculpt, cast in silicone and try my hand at punching hair. So trying to think of what I could make... Thought of a wookie but.. I am way to short (5.7") wasn't until I was watching a show about gorillas when I got the bite to make one. Figured it's a hell of a challenge but I am up to it.
So this is where I need some help. Ive been doing tons of research about gorillas and instead of just being a person in a ape suit I'd like to be a character of some kind. I thought of planet of the apes but I've already sculpted and cast the face (pics coming soon!) and it's more like a realistic gorilla then say the styled look planet of the apes has.
So pretty stumped! Any characters any one can think of? I'll be posting the face I've started already soon.
Update! With all the wonderful ideas I've been getting I've decided I am going to make a kriegaffe! From the hellboy series

Thank you for looking
