waZi waWa ~ entry 27

I got a request to make a pair of monkeys from a friend of mine, well actually a colleague of a friend of mine, well actually the mother of a colleague of a friend of mine, well actually a monkey with a bit of empty nest syndrome of the mother of the colleague of my friend. Hmm... I suppose none of that last statement was true, well after the second part anyway...

So, a monkey. Straightforward enough right? RIGHT? RIIGHTT? no. Suprisingly this has been one of the more difficult waZi's I have made in my life as a waZi craftsmen. If I am making a new waZi, that has never been created before I usually go through one "draft" waZi, to figure out the shape, how to hide the stiching, how big to make the eyes, etc.

But this waZi, I went through three drafts. The first one came out to be waZiman in the previous entry. The 2nd well... let's just say the second won't be making any apperances on this website. Before I finally arrived at the 3rd. So... now without further jabbering, waZi monkey.

waZi waWa ~ entry 26

Look up in the sky! Is it a bird? Is it a plane? is it gigantic orange and purple blotches caused by a hemoraging brain? No! It is waZi man!

waZi man began his humble beginnings as a stripped green sock that apparently failed to become a waZi monkey. After some more connudling and humnoodling he slowly and steadily progressed into the greatness that he is today WAZI MAN!

In making this waZi, I had a thought. When God made people was he really just trying to make another monkey and just kind of messed up and said, "Oh well, I guess I'll keep it, it didn't turn out that bad"?
