Halloween dead bunny built papercraft

 

Halloween dead bunny built papercraft

I know Halloween is over, but I think this craft is really unique (and maybe it fits into the whole Easter theme a bit, since it’s a bunny… XD), so I had to make it for myself to hang on the wall XD

It’s my Halloween dead bunny or suicide bunny wall mount papercraft. The template itself is about 25 cm big, so it’s quite easy to assemble. There is the separate bunny papercraft, and the separate carrot papercraft. I made the bunny first, starting at the ears and slowly gluing all the parts together, bit by bit, part by part, so there isn’t much to talk about the assembly. Maybe only that the tail at the back can be a bit fiddly, since it has small pieces, so I suggest you build the tail separately from the body, and when you get to the legs, glue it on then. And at the end, close the whole body at the 2 legs with the soles in the end.

For the carrot, you make the carrot first and close it at the part where it touches the bunny. After I closed it, I cut out the 2D 2-sided greens and glue them on the end of the carrot (I actually made small incisions in the carrot end with a scalpel and glued the greens inside the carrot, so the edges are invisible and it looks neater).

The real gimmick of the papercraft is actually that the carrot can be removed! I really loved the trick, and I saw a few uses of magnets in papercrafts online, so I had to try it myself. So, for this, I used 2 small magnets and glued one on the inside of the bunny’s tummy (where the blood is) and the other one on the inside of the carrot, where it touches the body. And it works great, as you can see! Really love the trick, so I suggest to use this trick when you get the chance as well (small magnets are mostly cheap and can be found in any paper supply shop). It’s really an interactive thing, and you can decide to put the carrot on or off, however you feel like that day XD I’ll be sure to use this trick on some of my next papercrafts as well, it’s so much fun.

The papercraft is meant to be hanged on a wall, so I definitely suggest you do that. As you can see in the pictures, I made them on my table with the bunny laying down (black background) and hanged on the wall on a small pin at the back (white background).

   

The most important part (again):

No bunnies or other animals were harmed in the making of this papercraft!

It is meant as a funny Halloween prep and in no way does it represent any kind of glorification of violence towards any kind of animal or living being! I love bunnies very much, so hopefully no hard feelings for me doing this Halloween gimmick.
