Looking good, Fantamation.

BTW, if anyone else wants to do something like this, I found this info about how to do ball sockets for stop motion puppets here at MakeZine's Blog: Make: Online : DIY stop motion ball and socket joint

Fur work continues, got the other side of the face done, now to just finish up the arm and then do the overall touch ups. Again, I apologize for the crappy lighting, when I get him all furred up I'll photograph him with some decent light!

Looks really nice, did the original Kong have brown fur or was it all black?

 

[FANTAMATION]

According to Ray Harryhausen, Kong's fur was brown

Finished the general fur work, now to just do the touchups and a little bit of seaming. After that just have to stick on his toes and give him a tongue and do his little fingernails.
