[MOC] Raccoon

[Actionfigure]

Hello,

this is a racoon in a hurry. It´s a lifesize model.

It´s 67 cm long and contains about 3750 bricks to build it.

I hope you like it!

Your ability of building animal faces is excellent as always! It looks so alive.

This is absolutely fantastic.  Looks wonderful with the way you built the legs and tail like its running.

Love this. Such an elegant build and pose 🙌🏼

I also love how your sparing use of curved and sloped pieces makes them work extra successfully in the build.

Oh wow…this raccoon is fantastic! Will you put it on IDEAS?

Keep your work up!!

No, sorry. Did you read the conditions for IDEAS submissions? It was too much work to loose my interlectual property rights just for a chance.

But I won´t stop building!

Wow, it looks so lifelike! I like detailed head and you even made its claws. By the way do you use any software for building that converts 3D objects into bricks? Something like LEGO uses for sculptures in Legolands...

No, I never use any software to build a model. It would probably be much more convenient. I fact I have to build nearly everything several times until I am satisfied. That´s very time consuming. The software knows the correct shape instantly.

On the other hand, the building skills of a software are quite limited. Faces and hands would never be really satisfactory (at least for me). And to be honest the result wouldn´t be my work, my design!

In this case I like your models even more because now I can see amount of work you put in them.
