Man, I gotta get my eyes fixed! I looked at that picture when I opened this and at first couldn't see anything but all of the detail cuts and zig zags. When my feeble eyes finally found the other eyeballs staring at me, I jumped a mile! There's a big old gorilla in there! Well done, Robert!

Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools. 
Heard from a client..."If I had your tools and experience...I could do it myself"

Dave(duckin' and runnin') I just hope Gorilla's don't make the same choices for hand propelled projectiles as monkey's, cause that could get smelly messy QUICK!

Very Cool - I gotta get me that photoshop program. I just bought some Gary Browning books and I believe one of them has some tips on how to make portrait patterns.
Nicely done!
