RELEASED HiveWire Gorilla From Dusk Underway!

We can call it whatever we want in the thread, but I wonder if copyright will be an issue with the released product? Might have to be something more generic. :(

Yes exactly. Like Harry, his real name is HiveWire 3D Horse. I would imagine this will be "HiveWire 3D Gorilla for Dusk". But internally the name Kong or whatever is just great.

To be able to wear Dusk's (or Dawns) clothing would be great, I could see some Planet of the Apes inspired artwork from us, ahhhh, older generation “Damn them, damn them all to hell!” :p

Yessss,...my thoughts exactly

Are gorilla feet larger and/or fatter? I haven't looked in google yet... I know the other day I felt Dusk's feet are so small! (and yes, I know there is a morph, Chris, no worries!) I just never noticed until I put the GQ shoes on...so then I dialed them to be more...um...er... masculine... grin!

You're funny! Good stuff.

But I will look into the Gorilla foot concerns. Probably tomorrow night now, as I'm back on Kitty's teeth and mouth parts.

Just a quick look... this page has all sorts of interesting photos and facts:

also, I stumbled on a BABY gorilla...oh my gosh HOW CUTE ARE THEY!?? Dare we hope (eventually) for a Moma (could be just a breast morph?) and best of all the very young BABY with it's cute head?

I also didn't realize how LONG the arm and leg hair CAN be on a silverback... hmmm.... I imagine that would have to be done with post work....

Wow, this is looking good. My imagination is already running overtime on how Kong can be used in my renders and story lines, the fact is is a Dusk morph only adds to that potential.

Lyne that is a cute baby for sure.

We could add in some Dawn morph to this Gorilla for the female for sure. Will try a baby too.

Worked on a hostile expression tonight. Got in a good start anyway.
