Step 2The Things you need
Other than the Carboard body you will need
Parts:
4 Plastic Flower Pots. Which will form the wheels.
4 Cardboard Toilet Roll tubes. Which will form the Spoilers and the Exhausts.
4 Paper Plates. Which will form the Eyes, the Mouth and the Roll bar.
1 2mtr Black Ribbon for the purpose of hanging the box over the shoulders.
Paint:
Grey Primer - We bought a large can of Plasti-Kote Super Primer
This was to prime the cardboard box ( helpful since it might have been covered in plastic packing tape ) and the plastic flower pots ( making it easier to paint them )
Blue Wall Paint Acrylic . Yes we used up some old paint from the house decorating its used for the Body of the car, the spoilers ( two of the tube rolls ) and the edges of the dinner plates to make eyes.
Black Acrylic poster paint . For the exhausts ( the other two tube rolls ) , the wheels ( the flower pots once primer'd ) for his Eyes, the Roll bar and his mouth ( more paper dinner plate usage )
Silver Acrylic poster paint. For the spoliers and for mouth.
Paint Brushes.
Since we were doing this project as parent and child we doubled up on the paint brushes further we used large paint brushes rather than childs paint brush sets. Which made the job of painting tbox and wheels far easier.
Two brushes for the Blue for Body, Spoilers and Eyes.
Two brushes for the Black for the Roll Bar, Mouth, Eyes and Exhausts
Two brushes for the Silver for the Spoilers and the Wheel hubs on the flowerpots.
Two brushes for the PVA Glue for sticking labels and trim on the boxes.
Glue
PVA Craft glue to stick the labels and logos and extra decorations
Hot Glue gun to stick the various flaps and edges and plates and flowerpots on the box.
Pens
1 Black sharpie for the benefit of making life easier in drawing and cutting straight lines.
Cutting Stuff
Childrens Scissors
Craft knife ( the really sharp type thats definetly unsafe for kids )
