Vehicles

Today I just thought I would post some pictures of the vehicles that I had made.

Beer (above) is a spaceship I made a very long time ago at an art from scrap workshop. He is the first one I made.

Vroomy (Above) is a spaceship and I made him at a art from scrap workshop. He is the second vehicle I made.
This is Tanky Green, the third one I made, also at the art from scrap workshop. I made it out of a strawberry container, toilet paper tubes, and caps for small containers. I covered it in green tape to make it look more camouflaged.
This is Freighty, a spaceship I made at the art from scrap workshop right after Tanky Green. I don't know why I decided to make this one a freighter, maybe it was so that I could make him carry Tanky Green.
Next I made Tanky Red, the one you see here. I made him at the rental house that we had while we were evacuated from the fire. At that time the only materials I had were paper, pipe cleaners, and dental floss. Later I got some red tape and improved him and gave him his new name.
This is trucky, a jet-truck I made recently.
This is a flying saucer that I just finished and I am going to use for one of the vehicles in my craft economy of Andyroom.
It has a little window underneath it that you can see out of. The video below is taken by someone who was inside the flying saucer and looking out the window.

Crafts

Great honkin' moons of Jupeter, I haven't made a blog entry for such a long time I feel guilty. Anyway, I better start this one now without further apology so that I don't run out of time. Ruth and I have been making LOTS of crafts, sewing and stuffing people, building them houses, and constructing vehicles. I like making the houses and vehicles a lot more than I like sewing the people, so Ruthroom had a much bigger population than Andyroom. Oh, speaking of which, we're doing this "competing economies" thing where Ruth and I sort-of race to see which economy is the best. Don't worry, we're going about it with friendly intentions, but we do plan to have a Cold War somtime. Even though Ruth's population is larger than mine, I pride myself in vehicles and structures. I've got plenty of plans for houses, and I've started on a really great 2-story house, ith sort of a large attic. I'm almost done with my flying saucer, and I have started bulding this really cool transforming spaceship. I also am planning on modifying my paper vehicles so that they are useable. If you haven't read about my papr vehicles, click here or here or here.

More Paper Vehicles

The last "paper vehicle" I made at the Art From Scrap workshop was a biggish spaceship that I pretended was a freighter and named Freitey.
At the rental house I made a tank later to be named Tanky Red. The only materials I had at the rental house were a newspaper, pipe cleaners, and dental floss. Yet Tanky Red turned out pretty good. Then dad got a roll of red tape and I made Tanky Red stronger and, well, RED!
Oh, and I also made a missile launcher.

Paper Vehicles (Contenued)

So, as I said in my last entry, I have recently started making small toy vehicles and pretending they're alive, giving them names, and playing pretending games with them. I got started on this idea last Saturday (not the day before yesterday, the Saturday before that.) at the Art From Scrap workshop.
Art From Scrap is this store that sells little pieces of junk that could be used for art. Every Saturday there is a "Workshop" that is at Art From Scrap, where you can go into this room and there are little bits of scrap that you can make art out of, and tape and glue guns and things.
When we went there last Saturday, I made a tank out of a strawberry container, toilet paper tubes, and caps for small containers. I covered it in green tape to make it look more camouflaged. I gave this "Paper Vehicle" the name Tanky Green, but Ruth and I like to just call him "Tanky", or "Tanky G." for short.
When I was at Art From Scrap's workshop I also made a little spaceship that was very small compared to the rest of my "Paper Vehicles". I didn't know what most of the materials I used were, but some of them were marker caps, tubes, and a cork. This one, I think, is my favorite, but I'm not sure why. I named it Vroomy.
I made more, and I'll continue to tell you about them later, I have to eat breakfast.
