These are two of the finished rabbits. The one on the right is mine and the one on the left is by Leonie Lister of Australia.
I'm supplying the fabric, so Leonie and I are working on tables opposite of each other and selecting from the same stash, but you can see what a difference it makes with how the values are used and where they are placed on the figure.
These rabbits will eventually be put in a composition with other similarly made elements, but because Leonie, just loves squirrels, we all decided to jump to that.
This is the start of my squirrel - the freezer paper templates.
If I had made the squirrel the same scale as the rabbit, I could have put them in the same composition, but I decided to go for the mondo-sized squirrel. Watch out for your nuts!

Oh these look so fun! Next time I'm out there or you're out here, maybe you could teach me!
Sounds like a good plan! I'm going to work on a large portrait of Bree this winter, too -- if I get the time.
