Monkey fabrication

So after the lovely Paul Spooner kindly gave me a block of insulation foam I started making the Monkey...
I made a scale drawing so I could then cut out blocks from foam and carve away the form.

Blocks measured from drawing and drawn onto foam

The head


Body parts


Hinging the leg joints- calico, latex and pins



I papier mached the torso to give it more strength


Little wire monkey feet

I love the feet armatures I made! I want to make lots and sell them as earrings...
