It's been like 5+ months since I've posted any 3d threads and modeled anything more complex than a box so I am rusty as hell. I'm going to need lots of practice because I'm going into game dev soon.

Here's the start of donkey kong. I know it sucks, I'm not as good with organic models but here goes.

More to come.

Thanks I'll take that into account the next time I modify it.

Update:
-Widened the mouth, which also made the chin more squared kind of.
-Started on the torso (you can see my crappy hand drawn blueprints in the back)

We'll its still butt ugly lol... but it's getting there. Once the model is done it will be textured and then rigged for animation (that is the reason for the static pose at the moment).

Update:
-Modified nose
-Updated Eyebrows
-Arms and hands

Making the thumb is damn hard. Hands still need lots of tweaking especially around the fingers.

That is shaping up very nicely.

I can't wait to see it finished. Great job so far.

By the way dude, you should do a repost of all your 3D stuff. I simply can't get enough of them..

Yeah maybe I'll resurrect and finish some old projects... and rerender completed ones. Ughh when I'm less lazy :P .

Lower torso update... Lol he needs hair ASAP, monkey ass is showing.

What's left to do:
-Tweak all aspects of body to be more true with reference.
-Add a fifth finger maybe
-Connect head
-UWV unwrap
-RIG

his feet look wonky and very big in comparison with the rest, so do the hands, a fifth finger would really look better.

the seam on his face should be worked away to, and a neck would be nice for his head to sit on :D
