1) Wow - that must've taken a LOT of patience!

2) Typical of me. I keep looking at the wine bottle opener and the crockpot and wondering what you're going to be making for supper..... :drool2:

Honestly, most times people ad hair to a kit it's more of a distraction than a compliment to the original kit.
In this case, it definitely works!
Looks real!

Outstanding, the addition of the hair brings about a realism that if you didn't know it was a bust you'd think it was a photo of a live chimp.

If you just showed the face swear it was a real chimp that's how realistic it looks!Really fantastic work you done here!
Travelers to unknown regions would be well-advised to take along the family dog. He could just save you from entering the wrong gate.
