a more refined gorilla sketch, I call this technique "beating a drawing into submission"

there are still a lot of problems with this drawing, but hey, its done on the computer so at least I won't erase a hole thru the paper. thanks goodness for wacom tablets!

I'll probably take this and make a cleaner line drawing and then color it in or maybe not.

a few notes, trying not to make the helmet look to much like Tim Burton's designs but its kind of hard to do since gorillas have such tall noggins, kinda weird actually. the weapon is a direct rip-off of an m-79 grenade launcher, but I'll alter it. . . what? you've got to use scrap.
