I guess.... beside that it's good.... It looks like a characature...
Have you had a look at the Caricature Zone?
Or better look at this a little bit of the French history of caricature:
http://perso.wanadoo.fr/caricaturenet/histoire.htm
with the Master of Caricature - M:C - Daumier:
http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/daumier/
I do not think you can make a realistic portrait nor a caricature of GOD
because it is only a one(1) word standing for the concept that everything is interrelated into and out of Oneness which is not a person!
So you can choose whichever word you want to - to meditate on - to use as a gate - to pass into a realm of oneness tearing down all the words and concepts you are using daily to master your daily life with. For sure you need all those words and concepts - you need to have an I - but the thing with all those words/concepts/values your I is constructed of is that the words/concepts/values always are limited - cannot cover the real reality=the oneness - which is to big to grasp or better always are fluctuating stillness you cannot get hold on - cannot grasp, because you are the thing yourself... Well pretty hard to explain... You have to sit down yourself to test...
The Oneness is not of much use in your daily life so why bover?
Well - finding a common ground makes it possible to communicate, makes it easier to model and animate having experienced something of that common ground. Perhaps being able to make something yourself - not just following others modeling style, animating style.
This link - http://www.thedyinggod.com/ - I found good - explaining a lot of mans and womans trying to use concepts for everything.
Perhaps out of reading a little bit history we can understand something - learning the history of our and others beliefs. Perhaps learning to make up GOOD stories to animate with GOOD models.

Which faces are we - our I:s - to make?
Which words are we - our I:s - to find out?
Which concepts are we - our I:s - to invent?
Which feelings are we - our I:s - to experience?
Some are trying to change our beliefs - The da Vinci code by Dan Brown:
http://www.danbrown.com/novels/davinci_code/reviews.html
But perhaps not the whole truth:
http://www.lisashea.com/hobbies/art/
Instead trying to search for the roots:
Is this that will come instead?
Someone is saying World War IV have started:
http://www.commentarymagazine.com/podhoretz.htm
Others saying we have been deceived:
http://www.apfn.org/apfn/reserve.htm
How can we figure this out - without sitting down - checking every concept - in the end losing our I:s - getting a common ground?!., to start from trying to do something?!.,
Getting acquainted with everyone - the ones that really matter - modeling them - animating their lives:

I am just waiting for a new pwofessor to turn up.... a Master of Love to go waltzing around with the first pwofessor - a Master of Jealousy?

Just a remark - the ears - on the new figure - are they not too big?
Will they not be flapping a lot then she does the can-can?
The original had not got that big ears!

Thanks a lot Mrs Nancy Gormezano and Mr Josh Bruce. It makes me really glad
to have some reactions on what I have tried to do.For sure Mrs Gormezano faces are not symmetrical. I know. So moving some points it will make the face more natural. But thank you for your comment. I really like your work. You are a genius!
You have a lot of phantasy. I really appreciate that. Because I do not think so called photorealism is realistic. Photos or Videos only takes parts out of a beings I - just showing the I behind a "mask" for certain moments, movements.
I have only tried to show how simple it is to do something photorealistic. Take a model - take a photo. Move some points in the model to suit the photo. Flatten the model. Make a PrintScreen of the flattened model. Take it into Photoshop. Suit the photo to the printscreen picture of the flattened model. Save the new picture. Import it into A:M. And place it as a decal on the model. And then you can move some points to make it a little less symetrical. That is all. Perhaps not perfect. Not really artistic. But something.... you can use to do a little lipsync letting the "photorealistic" model say something.
About masks:
and eye-glasses: 
So exaggerating, distilling from reality I believe more in - using your own I as a lens - not only the lens of the camera - though your sculpturing have to have some connections with what we call reality - the forms and matters we on our sattelite circling the sun-sattellite encounters. But reality in a deeper meaning I believe can only be reached through meditation - taking away all your I:s meanings - but meditation will make you silent - you can no longer speak - you have no words left - but going through such an experience can make you see that your I - your words, your conceptions are made up - more or less connected to reality - like natural science having a connection - but still it is concepts.
And Mr Bruce I really like your answer.
It is yours beliefs. You are trying to communicate. Figuring out something for yourself. Giving me an answer. A little do-it-yourself philosophing from both sides. I really hope many more will step into our little discussion. For sure we have not the same opinion. But that does not matter so much to me. The thing is we are trying to reach some standpoints. Perhaps making a common ground to stand upon, walk on, sit and lie down to - to model on - animate on...

To illustrate the problem - John P - not Michael J this time - showing some different faces - the problem is not only that media - big global firms with thousands of employees are choosing which of the faces - masks to show us. The really problem is electricity - our new fire(power) and wheel(digital computing) - making this possible - taking all the million spectators faces away. We cannot see how the other ones are reacting - we cannot touch the other ones - not smelling them - not boxing or hugging them - instead we are all hypnotized of some common faces taking our thoughts and feelings away not being able to communicate them like equals.

If you want to have my funnybunny model and experiment with here it comes.
Be nice to my funny bunny or it will eat you... so keep moving...

When Michael Jackson becomes a religion...then we systematically destroy the images of him because we should be worshipping him directly...then it will be iconoclasm.
A quote from JoshB.
Yes what do this idoltry do to us? Replacing the image of ourselves and our relatives with some manmade face you cannot reach, speak to, hug or box, not smell.
Soon they are coming to our own Holoverse univers!?.,
Not only Michael J, Clinton, Levinsky, the whole gang
stepping into our living rooms. Great we can party together with them for some bucks....
http://www.donina.org/santaclausidol.html
The future? Holyverse or Holohell?!.,
The ones trying to enslave us - the big global cooperations - can give "our idols" some Artificial Intelligence - using Neural Networks:
http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/A/artificial_intelligence.html
Or shall we make some Iconoclasm?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iconoclasm
Well the problem is we cannot stand on our own legs. You have to have something to eat, somewhere to live, someway to defend your property, time to negotiate with your neigbours, making friends with them.
To fight the global companies
we have to try to figure out how to do it yourself together with others in small groups learning to stand on our own feet.But that will not be easy:
You have to get a little unsure first -
- sitting down meditating - loosing your I a bit a day - to grasp what to do with your I - and not only you - all others have to begin figuring out for themselves - for Our Selves: -
Michael J was not so diffucult to make after having looked through
Jim Talbots tutorial 1 and 2. You find them here:
http://home.comcast.net/%7Ejtalbotski/tutes.html
step 0:
And having unzipped tutorial 1 you will also find the head model I have used.
The head is inside this tutorial:
http://homepage.mac.com/talbotj/FLATTEN-TUTORIAL.zip
And I had to Google up some pictures of Michael J. And I had to manipulate one of the Pictures in Photoshop rotating it a bit and mirror one side. And I have also manipulated the lips to close them.
step 1:
Then by importing the manipulated picture to the Talbot head model to Animation Master as a Rotoscope I cculd begin to move the CP:s around to better suite the picture I have made up in Photoshop.
step 2:
And then practising the things you can learn from Mr Talbots tutorials 1 and 2.
You have to flatten the model and make a screencapture and then in Photoshop place the picture so it suits the screencap by a little manipulation eg scaling.
And then saving it and importing it in A:M to use it as a decal. Thati is all.
And you have got your Icon in step 3 to render on the scene.
For sure it is more to do on the model. It took me five hours to do this.
Now I will have a try to make Michael J talk by a little lipsync using my own voice trying to whisper some truths to the public.

Hope their will be more celebrietis to see from you folks!
Just a tip on some suitable ones:

The skel looks natural - but one bone for the jaw? Do you not need two bones for that one? I was thinking of having no bones for the jaw using poses to get the bunny to talk.
You are talking of fan bones - I do not know what fan bones are - I have to look it up somewhere - perhaps I can find it in the Help?
Hair - it is just to right click Material in the PWS and choose New
And then to right click the new materials Attribute and choose Change type to Particle System and then choose Hair.
Drop it on your bunny - or perhaps just on a group - and you have got something to combe. Perhaps not seeing the mouth and the eyes.
I really have not got the time to play around with the bunny animating it but some day I will have a try - not next week I think.

Tried to make some photorealism...
Well just newbie photorealism
Thanks to Mr Talbot for the model and the education
Sure there are better students
But perhaps this is the future
a virtual Michael J in everyones living room
Sure you have to use your VISA-card first
but then he steps in to your own Holoverse
Or shall we make some Iconoclasm?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iconoclasm
Stop rendering the living and the dead?
The question is for sure not so easy to answer.
But think about it - feel about it?
Comments welcome!

Very nice!
He/She is twrowing something. Yes, but what?
Throwing it towards the horizon. And then looking for it towards the horizon.
But then looking for it towards zenith. The logic?
What I am missing most is some sound...
But very good done!

It took me about six hours to do the bunny.
Here a little more... with the splines. I have used some hookes to insert the legs and ears.
The legs are 8-point lathes with some extruding.
The legs I have first modelled from the top view. And then building them together with the body by inserting 4 new points in 4-point patches in the body to be able to connect the legs.
And then I have rotated them. And done some fixing up.
The eyes I have not done very much to. I have to get some better eyes - some day!
Now I have tried to do a transparent material to show a red ball I have modeled and placed inside the head behind every eye, But the transparent setting will not let the red eye ball shine through - but it was just an experiment.
How have you built the skeleton? Can you upload a picture of your skeleton? Not yours - but your bunnies!!!!!
And one more question to you - have you used a decal? And then some hair?
And one more - what kind of material do you use for strawberries?
-
I just had to have a try myself. Here is my bunny. For sure it is not that easy. I did not have a crisis though there are lot of creases.
Animation Master is missing a button. The NOT-CREASES button. There is such a button in Flash. If you have made a drawing in Flash. You can select the drawing or part of it and then click the SMOOTH button. Perhaps something for the Hash folks to think about. A little smoothing out in 3D can not be that hard to program?!.,
What do you think of my bunny?
-
That was really a funny animation! Very nice!
The ears - why do you not let them act a bit - turning forwards - waiting for the strawberry - turning backwards - eating the strawberry!
And I think you can make the eyes much, much bigger! The eyes are really the things going into the soul contacting the universe. So have a try - make them really BIG!
And no sound! That is shit!
The strawberry has a sound touching the ground. And the bunny eating it must have a sound. You can make the sounds yourself. Just some noise in a microphone... and perhaps some filter(s) to make your own sounds a little more realistic. With sounds your animation will come to life! And then perhaps some lip-synced words from the bunny up to your own imagination. And you will have not only an anonymous bunny - You will have A CHARACTER!
About the bones - I do not know - there must be a lot of members here able to answer that question!
-
Through just detaching some things! Perhaps?.,

Had a look on your movie - still the hindlegs!

You can go to this adress and have a search on: rabbit
And you will find a lot ot pictures.

You are a genius modeling/animating, Mrs Gormezano. A really sexy cattess.

This is a trick - turn the things - your pictures - models - upside down - and you can see reality better - you are not so deceived of your opinions about how things looks in reality.
This trick can be worth testing!
Too me it looks like the bunny has a huge body then turned upside down,
-
I had a try in Photoshop to make a reference study. There is some differences!
I am not so fond of photorealism. I think you can do the eyes bigger. It is always good with big eyes. It makes the bunnies more attractive, like all models with big eyes!?.,
-
I had a look on your bunny. Looks good except the back-leg. It looks to me a little mechanical - the sides of the leg just looks as they are mirrored. Perhaps this photo of a running bunny can give you some idea?!.,
