Gorilla had a very unfortunate accident. His arm and head were torn off and he lost and eye, nose, and part of his face!
Here are the diagnosis photos I received from his person:
Fortunately, he looked quite treatable. We started with a spa, because he was already going to need new stuffing:
Then he got his heart and was restuffed:
I thought he was back together and sent these photos:
His person wrote “
Wow he looks amazing!” …. but he used to have ears, can you add some? Apparently, the gorilla had lost he ears entirely! So I made a small sample ear and put it temporarily in place:
“Perfect!” said his person. So I affixed it firmly and did the other one as well. Here he is ready to fly home:
Sturdy with 100% scent, 20/20 vision, and perfect hearing again!
Some of my series of Wicked illustration studies I have made over time ever since college! I hope to supplement more enough to make a solid portfolio out of them!
Being a member of the original Rise of the Guardians fandom back in late 2012/early 2013 and still being on tumblr is quite the trip, especially if you’re still following a bunch of people from back then. Yeah, we used to be tight and had a lot of in jokes and memes, but for the most part we’ve all dispersed to different fandoms and different interests. Except we’re still here, like we’re members of a disbanded secret society, but every so often something will come up and you’ll viscerally remember shipping a sofa with a pond and invading children’s websites and semi-deifying the fucking moon.
