The Many Faces of Bunkasai: The Tottoro Bus

Class 3D: The Tottoro bus

There is a popular cartoon in Japan called "Tottoro." It's some sort of magical cat...I don't really understand it. Anyhow, the students from 3D constructed a life sized version of the bus from the cartoon, complete with padded seats and a portrait of Tottoro inside. The bus itself was constructed from cardboard boxes and faux fur fabric. It was incredible!

A Tottoro parking job...the rest of the bus is inside the classroom...after a few glasses of sake that cat will park his bus anywhere...
