For tonight I take some rest from the humans for a moment .. working on a realistic Chimp for D2F as a part of the Primates and ancestors theme.
I got little burned out .. so doing something to focus my mind on other things for a while , it is very helpful and relaxing ..

below progress as it goes.. .

Body smooth but the feet was a challenge .. but done, now only the hands and the inner mouth. :coffee::eek:
for a low poly base it allow me to make a pretty much details .. considering it is not an ape topology but Dawn 2.
The rest of the fine details will be in displacement maps after the shape is proper rigged.

Edit: hands done

Too bad there wasn't a conforming tail. I LOVE Spider Monkeys!
It is 4ft Chimp - Great Ape , tail would not make it into Monkey , maybe Chris can make a separate Spider Monkey , they are cute but little creatures. I made Chimp since it is our closest relative we have , it also help me to create blend starter shapes for other ancestors and relatives from the past like Homo Erectus, Lucy , Neanderthals and others .. I want the full serie in realistic and anatomically proportional edition.
It also showing beautifully what can be done with D2FM topology .

Been a long time since anyone did an actual (as opposed to 'Toon) monkey. Silverkey's was all the way back in 2005, and that's about the only one I know f.
Thanks, I was doing one for Genesis back in 2014 , but someone else was doing chimpanzee at the moment so I dropped it, just to find later it was not actual chimpanzee but sort of fantasy human hybrid.
This one is as good but going to be better and even more realistic .
