Tortoise and the Hare Part 1

Everyone in the small town of River Rock knew of Jack Hare. He was the town’s star athlete, and an inspiration to all. He was a feisty and persistent rabbit and extremely competitive when it came down to racing- something he loved doing. He was built thin and agile; some would even say he runs so fast, he might as well be hollow inside! But Jack was anything but hollow; he was a solid racing machine!
One particular race had become a yearly tradition in the town. The annual running of the “River Rock Run” had commenced for the 23rd time. The special thing about this race was that 13 years ago, best friend and rival, Terrace J.

To Bernadette with Love part 1by ^Katmomma

Anthro / Traditional Media / Sculpture

The finished product of this so far:

Acrylic Paint and I livestreamed some of the painting this past Monday.

And Unfortunately I couldn't get the time to launch another stream while I finished him last night

it was a busy day yesterday.

Some Explainations

No Cabbage? - Well the answer to that question comes with the title "Part 1" There is a Part 2....and I'm working on it

What about the Patch Together Resin Figurine? - I still haven't gotten enough votes and feedback on the figurine concept for the site to consider production of my design. (Meaning, they sculpt it, cast it, and make toys that you can buy and have your own little Jack sitting on your shelf). But since I wanted to contribute this to an Illustration Project, I decided to make a slightly modified version by hand by myself

PLEASE STILL VOTE & VIEW --> [link]
Even if you don't want to make an account to vote or comment, if you at least view the page, it will still count towards something

Thank you everyone for your continued support!

I had fun photographing the sculpture in my backyard

Fantastic! Utterly fantastic!

The painting job is a marvel! I always presumed that paint and sculpey diden't coporate, you've proved me wrong!

Great photo angles by the way.

Sorry to bother you with an inquiry, but did you put a darker blue to shadow the folds of his shirt, or is it just the normal blue paint in the crevasses of the sculpture?

^Katmomma Sep 30, 2009 Professional Artist

aww thank you

As for the folds and crevasses, I actually used a watered down dark brown (very watered down acrylic paint) to the point where it's almost like watercolor, and spread it around the areas. Then I just wipe away excess with a paper towel
