Description
Another Conan, Kane, Red Sonya type image. I didn't mess with this one it's pure Poser. I think it captures the essence of the art associated with this class of literature.
Early explorers often wrote of Gorillas as horrible beasts preying on humans. We now know this was a lot of poppy cock. But early writers often portrayed them as menacing beasts. In point of fact, a giant gorilla did exist at one time, Gigantopithecus blackii, who was thought to be 10+ feet high and weigh in at 1200 lbs.
This effort was a mix of so many products that it would be ridiculous to name them all. Most are available here at Renderosity others at DAZ.
I'm working on the next section of art and story - hopefully I'll get it together this weekend. Mom sleeps alot now so I have alot of time on my hands when I'm caring for her.
Thanks again for all your support.

we just watched a tv show about this giant... I like that you put him in a period of time that no one else has thought to use. Excellent!
