I know its a bit late for mothers day, but I wanted to show you an unusual request I had. It was for a mum who collected elephants, so since seeing one of Twisterella's designs, I have been putting things in baskets, and this is what I did.

I have just now done a small Easter display piece for my cards,
and was quite pleased with how the rabbit came out, especially as it was the first time I made him, and think he looks really cute :)

The design is by the lovely Shirley Ray, from a D.V.D I just got today.
Kind regards

Thanks for your kind comments, especially as it was the first time I made him, but all credit must go to Shirley Ray as it is her design :D
Kind regards

The bunny I made was from 160's. I know bigger is not allways best :D but I thought I would see how he looked in 260's. Hope you like him.
Kind regards

Here is a bunny. I think it looks like the energizer bunny but could be used as an Easter Bunny for sure. It was made because someone on this forum asked me if I could make the dragon Falkor from the Never Ending Story.

It is funny to me that people think I can just twist anything. I just sit down and Viola... I make the critter at the first go. I struggle... sometimes my office will be filled with variations of the same critter... until I finally arrive, or not... at the one I'm happy with.

I hope you don't mind if I post a dog on this thread... it doesn't belong in this thread because it has nothing to do with Easter or Mothers day... it does belong with Falkor though. It was also one of the critters that I made as a result of attempting to make him.

I hope you enjoy them both!

Hugs...

Kevin, I like the shape of your bunny.
Especially the one in grey (just a better bunny color ;) )

Hi Petra,

When I remade Shirley's bunny in 260's I used Grey 'cos a million years ago I was a magician ,and my real proper bunny was called Misty. He was a grey colour, just like the grey mist that used to come down over my back garden.

Perhaps we could do a thread on sculptures that have a personal link. :idea:

I'll start it off tomorrow or over the weekend
Kind regards
Kevin
