This is a sketch for a piece I'm doing for a "Retro Game" art show. I wanted to do something from a game I actually worked on, but I don't suppose anyone but us old timers remember Vectorman.
Yes, great fangs! Donkey Kong Country was one of my favorite games on Super-Nintendo. Everybody loves apes. I recently paid a buck for a book on Gargantua the Great, the great ape star of Ringling Bros and Barnum and Bailey.

I like the rigid skeletal teeth-jaws pushing around all the Ape flesh.
Almost cartooney on top of the boney structure

where'd you get your book Tom?
A small used-book store in Kensington that specialized in selling cookbooks and children's books. They're having a going-out-of-business sale.
For a second I took the banana in the gorilla's hand as a Mugato horn.
That is probably a sign of the times. Used book stores, a staple of Kensington on Adams Ave, closing their doors.
Damn fine detail on the lip wrinkle-creases, very gorilla-y. Your visit to the zoo has its dividends.
