From this....
To this!!
Its been a long project, and a good learning experience. His legs moved a little as the load was put on it, if I do it again I would brace the legs a little better. All I can figure is some of the tape came loose inside, may use screws next time and some kind of strap.
Here is a close up of his spots.
Close up of his face. I also learned that they have three horns, not two! LOL
and a view from the back. Learned that giraffes are really stupid looking animals! LOL LOL
I found some fringe for his mane and tail.
I am pretty happy with how he turned out, cant wait to show you all what he looks like on the float!!!! I made a few other critters too, three monkeys, and a parrot, they are only 2-D though. The Parade is July 23rd! coming up fast.
Here is the rest of the crew!
Amazing!!! I am impressed! You've got some serious talent, girlfriend!
ReplyDeleteI've always liked giraffes. They remind me of very tall horses. Had no idea they had three horns, though.
