breck-034.jpgI have just finished this latest "creation".  I realize that it looks like a rabbit head on a weenie dog body.  Actually, my aim was to make an antique style bunny.  Like the pictures from the very old Peter Rabbit books etc.  Personally, I love him.  However, I will not be selling to myself, so I would like to hear what you all think.

:crackup:  'buneenie'??  :crackup:   But I'm another who thinks its a very very cute bunny....and very distinctive.   bear_wub   It reminds me of when the buns try to be brave, and they stretch waaaaay out to see something new, but aren't fully brave to hop all the way forward.    bear_tongue

Hi Nina,
this is a lovely sweet bunny! bear_wub  It´s extraordinary and cute. I woulnd´t change it a bit!
The reason, why it reminds sof a dog...somehow...is, because the body might be a tad bit too long, but in my humble oppinions this is exactly, what makes this bunny so charming!

Hi
I think he's looking great but if Iwas too make an alteration I would just reduce the length of his body a little bit because the front end and back  are fine I think they just need to be closer together.

You can only try it and see what happens.
Hope this helps.
Shelly.

Awww...he is totally very unique indeed and cute. He will sell because he is different from a regular bunnny.  He does look like a hare that are out in the desert and is out watching something way far away bear_thumb  bear_thumb  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  :hug:  :hug: I would not change a thing on him,but you can always make more in other colors.

Thank you all so much.  I really appreciate your opinions.  I do plan to make another one with silver velvet (if I can find it).  I think it would then look like my rabbit, Gracie.  She is a rex rabbit and feels very much like velvet.  This bunny does remind me of Gracie when she is stretched out in her threatening pose, which she does a lot.  She is very sassy.

I love the caricatures - and he certainly is one!   And - he has that "pick me up" quality.
