Cardboard Robots

SO! We had to make cardboard robots of about 80 to 100 centimeters tall for today. That was ....interesting. Ended up being quite fun to do, but DEAR LORD was it a hassle. From acquiring the cardboard, to putting it all together, to getting it to school, and getting it back to my bitty appartment.

Seriously, it was a hassle, but a fun one. But dear lord was it messy!


From the pile of cardboard I started the project with...

To the mess that was left after I finished the robots..

But in the end, the result was nice. The robots had flowers on them first, but I ended up ripping them off because they didn't fit the overall design.

With the flowers:

And without the flowers:

Lookit them, being all happy and stuff.

Getting them to school and back was a hassle. On the way to school, I held the fourlegged one in one hand while having tied the two-legged one on my backpack, but that was very exhausting and scary because the fourlegged one kept slipping in my grasp with multiple times of nearly dropping it >.< So on the way back I severely taped him onto my bicycle with its legs in the bicycle-bags D: He didn't like that, nope. And On top of that I taped the twolegged one onto the other as well so I wouldn't have to carry him on my back. FFF.

They were severely unamused...


Overall, it WAS a fun assignment, albeit a very complicated, unhandy one. It was just a great hassle to get everything done and get everything to school. That teacher gives some very fun but VERY impractical assignments, I'm telling you. Oh well, next assignment is a lino-cutting of about an A4 paper in size. I'll be alright.

Now back to cleaning, my room is still a mess. At least I've got a cup of hot cocoa to ease the pain 8D
