Trojan Rabbit Printer Friendly Version   By MR.FIBBLE - Dec. 31, 1969 well its the plank mold and thats about it. I thought there was a one plank catagory so planned to make the trojan bun bun and enter it in that one. Alas this year that catagory does not exist, so here in the small catagory is ...............TROJAN RABBIT the design is from Monty Python and the Holy Grail film and based on a pattern that I found online, this pattern was enlarged so it would work with the plank mold. Everyone with HA molds wants to build a castle at some point ............. the rabbit will help gain entry into such castles, think about it a way to break through theose delicatley cash walls, and all done with a wickle fwuffy bun bun ......... if the rabbit fails there is always the back up plan the TROJAN BADGER .............. the rabbit was made with the following ........ the plank mold two chop sticks ( snaffled from a meal I had so freeeeeeee ) one tooth pick paint and glue and paper yes thats all now you all go make one :) every panel was done seperate and then regular 1" HA gothic blocks used as a brace block in the back side of the two sides the wheels were done with a cheap dremel knock off that cost $20 and used the cutting disc and a grinding bit for the axle hole and thats about it if nothing else up till this point its a tad unique hope you like it :O) David   45 Ratings     12345      Public Comments Please log in to post a comment    Created  Comment  Aug. 24, 2005, 07:12PM  By: BOSSMAN Nice to have some humour thrown in.

I just don't remember it. Still, very humorous.  Aug. 18, 2005, 09:18AM  By: MALARKEY what can I say ? I like the rabbit :)  Aug. 17, 2005, 11:39PM  By: NYATI RUNAWAY!! RUNAWAY!!

Aaarrgh... we're doomed ! No serious; an innovative and fun way to make use of Hirst Art !  Aug. 16, 2005, 10:56AM  By: ANDADAS Nice!
