‘Fly Me to the Moon’ started life as a blank Bellicose Bunny. I started by separating bunny from her rocket, painting the rocket with acrylic paint and sealing with a heavy gloss lacquer. I then sculpted her face and hands in sculpey, and sewed her a full, faux fur, fluffy bunny costume complete with fluffy bunny tail. Finally i added a pair of little goggles which i made from scratch using found items and orange vinyl, reconnected her to her rocket, and she’s ready for take off!
‘Fly Me to the Moon’ is part of Bellicosity and will be on display at TAG gallery, LA March 3-18. Opening reception 7-11pm. TAG, 7571 Melrose Ave., Los Angeles CA 90046, Get directions.

These three zombie bunnies were a private commission and are sold, please get in touch if you would like to open a commission of your own – hollystanway (at) gmail.com
Harking back to the zombie bunnies i made a couple of Halloweens ago, these three were commissioned as gifts for three of the buyers friends, which i thought was a really sweet idea. The zombie bunnies faces are resin casts of my original sculpt, painted, sealed and splattered with ‘blood’ The bodies are made from black faux fur and are weighted to stand unassisted. Each one has then been given a liberal splashing of glossy acrylic ‘blood’.
It’s been a long time since i posted one of these resin faced dolls, this one was a private commission. It was a real trip down memory lane to make her and i enjoyed every minute of it. It must be a good couple of years since i used one of these resin faces (I made one in October for my booth at Designercon but she sold before I got a chance to take a photo of her, oops!) I have only a handfull of these resin faces left and have no plans to make another mold. so if you would like one, please get in touch.
This one-off jointed bear is around 12″ tall (not including her ears) Her face is a resin cast of my own original sculpt. Her face has been painted and sealed with layers of matte lacquer with gloss accents on her eyes and lips. She has weighted feet and a weighted bottom and free moving teddy bear joints in her shoulders and hips so she can sit and stand unassisted.
