There are a lot of works in progress right now, but it's just too hard to resist making a new face! This is one character that I actually intended to create from the start. I had been thinking that I wanted to try making a rabbit. While daydreaming, I had made a few rough sketches of my idea. These were just on bits of scrap paper and post-it notes. Finally, one day, I just went at it.
The ears have been added just this week, so I figured Rabbit was ready to make its debut. Up to this point, I haven't been using any rabbit photos for reference, so it won't be the most accurate interpretation. Even so, I think it is already giving off the impression of what a "rabbit" would be. In my sketches, I imagined Rabbit would be very solemn, sweet and dainty. Its paws would be outstretched, gently offering a patchwork heart. Now that it's coming along, I think it may turn out to be a bit more playful.
It doesn't even have feet yet, but it looks like it wants to dance! :-)
