Love to hear some feedback... I'm calling him "Leisure Chimp". Still some work to do, and I have to sculpt a tassel on the side. Thanks for looking...

TY Tipsy Yeti Member San Francisco Joined: Aug 23, 2013 Posts: 29	TY Tipsy Yeti Posted posted on Tue, Sep 24, 2013 5:02 PM I've left the front of the fez blank just for that sort of thing, I figure I can add a clay applique to it before firing. I'm hoping the Smugglers Cove here in SF will want some custom ones once they see a finished one.

Love how the felt contrasts so much w/ the hair (fur?). You've hit the chimp on the head w/ this one! Can't wait to see this piece progress!

Liek the idea about a design for the fez. Please do post more as progress continues. Would love to see the intermittent steps along the way to the finish.

I give you mondo Mega encouragement to produce a run of this design... a Tiki design of some sort would be a nice touch on the front of the Fez... or perhaps a puffer fish?
