Gargan the Ape by TheFlyingKing

I know what you're thinking. "HE'S a Gorilla??" The answer is Yes. But I'll admit, he's long overdue for an update, but i've used this design for him for so long that i cannot imagine him in any other form... btw, this is the first time EVER i've colored him. He looks good to me... I'll share his Story more in the comments. Please feel free to ask lots of questions about him or any other characters you see in this gallery!

Gargan is no ordinary gorilla. He is a Gorillian, a bipedal, tall, masculine, powerful race of gentle giant-type Gorillas living in a place called The Infinitree Forest, a vast, thick, overgrown, dense jungle whose trees, as the name suggests, stretch seemingly "into infinity". Basically, they're really, really, REALLY tall. One such tree is taller than all the rest, aptley named The Infinitree. That's where Gargan lives, as he is the Alpha Male, or leader of all the Gorillians in the jungle. He gains his title because he is the son of the legendary Gorillian revolutionary hero Garagan.

However, his father died AGES ago. So why is he not dead a few ages after? Gargan was frozen in ice after he left the jungle to explore new lands when his father trusted him to venture out on his own. He was found ages later by The Flying King, and, after he was "rediscovdered" by his kind, they deigned him Alpha Male.

(Moni) excellent question! Many humans say they that one alone has the strength of *** men. in reality, while it may seem so, they usually can lift two to three times their body weight. the average male weighs six hundred to eight hundred pounds. Gargan weighs about three hundred pounds at the moment, he trimmed down this winter. Their skin and muscles are so strong they can even withstand gunfire, despite there being virtually no guns in Benopia (save for the lazer blasters the Benopian Starmada (or Galactic Navy) uses)

(Moni) and yes, he is rather cool :) thankee. he's a "gentle giant" kind, his heart is solid gold. tho he gets pretty upset if you insult him. BTW, NEVER EVER EVER call him or any Gorillian "monkey", or any primate steryotype. they do like "Great Ape" tho.
