Ever wanted your own priceless figurines? Here's your big chance!
You will need:
- Sticky Tape
- Newspaper
- Aluminium Foil
- Cardboard Box Card
Start by scrunching up newspaper into a body shape.
Use plenty of stciky tape to hold it in shape
Twist some strips of newspaper into arms and legs.
Again, use sticky tape to hold them in shape.
Bend the bottom of the legs to make feet.
Then scrunch up a thin ball of newspaper to make a head.
Use more sticky tape to hold it in place.
Now that you have all the body parts made, tape them all together.
Attach one at a time.
Just use plenty of tape and take your time - don't rush!
To make your figure stand up, you need to make a base.
Just cut a piece of cardboard box card to the right shape, and tape a scrunched up pad of newspaper onto it.
Now position your figure on the base.
It doesn't have to be in a standing position it can be in any position you like. This one's walking, for example.
To create the effect of a priceless figurine, cover your creation in aluminium foil.
You'll need to use some double sided sticky tape or sticky tape loops for this.
Put your sticky tape loops onto the back of your figurine's back, head, chest and so on, then simply cover with pieces of aluminium foil.
Remember, you can do any shape, size or pose of figure that you like.
