Pirate Monkey

This past Thursday was my older brother's birthday.

I was in a dilemma of what to make for him.

I have had this little monkey figurine sitting on my shelf, waiting to be painted.

I didn't want to paint it like just a plain old, two tones of brown monkey though.. that would be boring!

I finally decided to paint it like a pirate! Michael loves pirates and monkeys!

Why not combine the two?!

This is what I ended up with:

I am really happy with how it turned out!

I just used acrylic paints to paint him and then sprayed him with glossy sealer to give him a shine.

Michael seemed to really like him!
