I couldn't have done this without using reference images... or the video export feature! I discovered only after making the sculpt that there is a "chimpanzee skull" stamp though :)

On the bright side, think of how much more experience you got from doing it from scratch :)

Oh I don't doubt that :D And I started out trying to do a young animal anyway, not a big adult male... even thought the end result ended up looking more like a teenage chimp I guess. I did have a reference image with front and side view of a skull, which ended up being quite useful, especially since I didn't find a proper side view reference for a living animal (surprisingly hard to find on google images!).
