Bumba the Boar

Story:

He is the boar that the Lord decides to hunt for fun with the help of his hunting dogs.

As the chase ensues, Bumba's tail becomes a casualty, snatched away by one of the relentless dogs. 

Spec:

It had to be able to run

It had to have a removable tail

Materials:

  • Old Bike Wheel

  • Plasterzote

  • Wood

  • PVC Piping

  • Elastic

  • Fabric Render - faux fur, Hessian, Faux leather, stretch fabric

  • Magnets

  • Sheep Wool

As we wanted Bumba to be a cute boar and the victim in the hunt rather than a large scary animal, we wanted to design him to be approachable and to be tackled.
