Default More Peter Rabbit characters.

Well, the run is drawing close to the end. Completed the other two major characters in the Peter Rabbit family, Floppsy and Cottentail, with the usual help from my painting assistant. She had her first opportunity to play with the whole family this afternoon and to hear the sounds coming from the room, you'd swear there was a whole family of bunnies chattering away together!!! LOL What a wonderful immagination a five year old has.

Just the secondary character Mr. Benjamin Bunny Senior to finish and it's off to other projects.

Enjoy,

Bob

Bob, you've certainly helped her imagination along with the animated positions of each bunny. The last picture is wonderful. She needs bunny ears too!
Thanks for showing us the images.

Bob, you did a fantastic job on those bunny carvings. What a cute idea! You can tell by the look on her face that she thinks so too! Bonnie
