Ape Out

This orange ape has broken free and is giving its captors a lesson in regret. This model is fan-art for the indie game Ape Out and attempts to capture the bold and angular style of the game in  three dimensions.

Ape Out is a wildly intense and colourfully stylised smash ‘em up indie game about primal escape, rhythmic violence, and frenetic jazz. It enables you to build up nearly unstoppable momentum and use your captors as both weapons and shields to crush everyone on your procedural generated path to freedom.

The model consists of two parts, the ape which is holding a a guard and an additional guard brandishing a rifle. Both of these parts fir neatly on a single A4 page.
