Tips for the Bunny Astronaut
The bunny's long ears inside a space helmet is the adorable challenge: let them fold up inside the helmet or poke through the top for comedy. The suit has orange accent stripes like real flight suits, and a small embroidered mission patch. A tiny flag-planting pose on a moon base completes the scene.
