Looks great. Is this a parody on George Washington and the Cherry Tree, perhaps? Maybe more pics would explain.

Everything looks great thoiugh! I like the use of the plain brown head for a coconut.

Overall a very nice Vignette. Sums up the whole feel in a tiny space, which is the while idea to a vignette.

Keep up the good work Iron Man!

I was thinking exactly the same thing as Freak..... Curious George and the Man-with-the-yellow-hat.

one thing this site needs is more Monkey Mocs. :D

serously this is a fun MOC - do you have other vignettes linked from here (that I just plain missed)?

Hahahahahahaha! I nearly fell out of my chair laughing (though that might be because I was only half on to begin with). I actually got it when I read it. Very funny. You did an awesome job dude!

Don't worry man, I got it the first time. It's great! I really like the choice of fig head for George and the brown head makes a good coconut too.
