Hare we are again

[amberdreams]

Just a quick post to show Norwich Hareport in his new position, sitting on a wooden chest looking out of our front window. Yay for tall ceilings - there's actually a good six inch clearance for his ears (as long as i don't move him forward into the bay window.

Finally I can now reach his tummy to paint it easier! When he was on the floor, even lying on my back I couldn't really get to it properly.

So now the plan is to finish everything I can low down on the body, before putting him back on his wheely trolley thing and finishing off his top half, including the flying hares themselves. All before Friday when Mr Giraffe arrives. Woo hoo!

Wow, that is incredible!
I showed Cameron some of your work, (especially the pig, i love the pig) he was suitably impressed with your obvious talent

What on earth do your neighbours think when they see your supersized animals looking out your windows at them? Your post man/woman must love coming to you! I would!

Ah the pig was my debut in this weird and wonderful field of sculpture painting... Thanks me dear!

I love the colors! And the landmarks and points of interest are so intriguing. You do such good work with these animals!

They are supposed to represent Norwich landmarks - I failed to think this through in the design stage LOL. Lots of straight lines do not transpose well onto so many curves!

That's one ... BIG ... bunny. ♥ Love the artwork adorning him, too!

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

He's upset at you calling him a bunny. LOL!!

[cassiopeia7.livejournal.com]

Oops!! Please extend my apologies to your most magnificent hare! 🐰

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

He's cool with it, since you're a star. (Or several)

[herminekurotowa.livejournal.com]

Pretty impressive!

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

He he thank you!

Hello crazy lady, I love the look of that hare; the details on the building is astounding:) You painted so many things! Good luck with the final touches. Hope the giraffe fits in your house/studio...

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Our ceiling in the living room is 9ft and the giraffe is 7ft so in theory, he should fit... And you should see the quality of painting on some of the other hares. Seriously SO much better than anything I can manage.

How ever you got him on that chest!? Was it a hare-raising experience? ;D

And how are we supposed to make bad puns out of "giraffe"?? Anyway, the hare looks awesome. :)

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Tee hee hare-raising.... Yes, I was struggling with giraffe puns - the best one I came up with was for the design that got chosen - Giraffic Park.

Really gorgeous scenery!! And OMG that hare is big. :O

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

He's taller than me... But then again, that's not hard LOL

Wow!

*grin*

he looks so majestic sitting on his box and looking out the window. (he really is a big bunny. :D ) he even matches the room!

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Ha you're right! I hadn't thought about him matching the living room walls...

[aerynsun5.livejournal.com]

Lovely, dear!

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Cheers!

Love it. I wonder if he will make any of your neighbours do a double take or if they're used to these giant painted animals in your house now. ♥

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Apparently quite a lot of people were checking out my bears last time, so who knows!

[madebyme-x.livejournal.com]

He's looking mighty fine!!!! *round of applause*

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

*takes a bow for him because Mr Hare can't bend in the middle*

[yohkobennington.livejournal.com]

This looks so awesome already.

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Thank you! It is really nearly done - just lots of fiddly bits to do.

[sillie]

Man, must have been difficult to get him on there. He's looking really good though! :D

[milly-gal.livejournal.com]

You don't do things by halves, do you Amb? lol! He's looking excellent, and I can't wait to see Mr Giraffe turn up :D
