Terrific idea to keep the original Kong style... The original is always the Best.

I totally agree! Byrne's stipulation for accepting the commission was that I wanted Kong and not just a giant ape...which is of course exactly what I wanted!

It's the original Kong that really makes the piece, I think, so great call(s) and congrats!!
