Hi there,
Something looked odd about the ape face on the web page, but until recently I couldn't put my finger on it. I realized that the ape has too many teeth! All apes (and humans) have 32 teeth, divided in quarters, as it were. The tooth pattern should be 2 incisors, 1 canine, 2 pre-molars, and 3 molars, multiplied by 4 since there are two halves to the mandible and the maxilla. The ape-man face on the web page has too many incisors before the canines, and it looks kinda funky. I'm not sure how much "realism" the art should reflect, but I just thought I would point out the issue, since the pic is not consistent with anatomy.
Thanks for reading!
