Animatronic Monkey

Below are photographs of the Golden Monkey model, I created this piece from my own design (please see design and  illustration folder). The Monkey had a fibre glass core and a foam latex skin giving it a life-like feel. The Monkey has a moving jaw as well as ears that twitch and changing expressions in the brow area (video to follow). I sculpted each individual gold tooth and hair replaced the fur as well as building a wooden stand on which the monkey sits.
