The Grave Diggers - Remake

Original: [link]

I've actually been doing a ton of remakes of old pictures I've made.

I've also posted an old version of this in black and white, because I hadn't colored it yet. here's a link: [link]

Just so you know, the grave diggers are the monkey's dressed as skeletons, and are only in Ape Escape 2000.

Ok, there's a story with this picture.
A monkey, George, also the monkey at the bottom without goggles, go off trick or treating dressed as a skeleton. Meanwhile the grave digger leader, Sampson, is helping in the haunted trail when he comes upon a treasure map. So he gathers the others and they agree to search for the treasure.

Well, they follow the map to this grave yard, and one of them tells the others about how monkeys have dissapeared here at midnight, due to an evil monster named Balgory.

They don't believe him and head off. Eventually they reach their destination and discover the guy who told the story, steve, has disappeared. One of them goes looking for him and finds George, but thinks he's steve. They take George back even though he doesn't even know them.

Well, they dig up the hole and follow the map, and one by one they disappear, are eaten. Soon only two are left, George and Sampson(at the bottom of the pic)

The find the treasure George runs for it even though Sampson know's it's a trap. George picks it up and the Sargoro (gorgoyles) surrounding it come to life. George yells and then Sampson is grabbed and pulled into the darkness. Out of the darkness comes Balgory(the demon at the top).

They surround George and jump onto him. He blocks with the treasure chest and runs for his life! Then Balgory and burst into laughter and pull off it's masks and turn out to be the Fred, george's best friend.

George, "Why'd you follow me all this way to pull a prank on me? And who are your friends?"
Fred, "I came alone..." *stares at the Sargoro.
