This chipmunk uses Tony Twist's Loop the Loop form.

We were tasked to take some iconic pictures of Raleigh, so I built and brought this guy downtown to take a picture in front of one of the big acorns. This one is in front of Meymandi Concert Hall.  (Raleigh is the 'City of Oaks' - New Years Eve, we lower a giant acorn instead of a ball.  Yep.  That's a thing.)

This uses the basic Loop the Loop form with the addition of some basic animal legs and a bushy 'Lima' tail.  I ended up making two because I wanted to experiment with a different way for adding the tail, and the one we brought downtown did not take outdoors nor being in a hot car very well and lost it's toes and head fur.
