Rabbit - 2025

I was not too pleased with how world politics were going, and neither is my rabbit, based on a paper model from the Canon website and designed by Yukari Nakayama. I did change the model a bit, to make it have fewer sharp angles on the head, and that made things a bit more complicated for me because then the head didn't fit the body, so I had to improvise and change the way the head is attached to the body. With the body I was experimenting for the first time with a model that closed up vertically and (unlike the squirrel) didn't come together in little horizontal bands. I'm not sure how well I managed the join, but it's mostly hidden in this photo.
