Here’s what you can do if you have some spare scissors. Break them apart then use a torch to heat the parts and bend them. Then all you need to do is weld them together and you got yourself a scissor spider. A cheap and easy way to make a cool sculpture.
Cardboard Art
Chris Gilmour chose a simple material for his work – packaging cardboard. He made amazing things out of it without using anything else but glue. He didn’t use metal or wooden frames. It is amazing how he made life-size models of cars, bikes, a typewriter and a wheelchair out of plain cardboard.
Uncle Scrooge’s Money Bin
Do you remember an old cartoon “Duck Tales”and a character Uncle Scrooge? Well, here is a model of Uncle Scrooge’s money bin. Don Rosa and Dan Shane designed it. Their designs inspired a fan, Matt Gullikstad to created a scale model of the bin. The details are amazing, it has 250 chairs and 250 desks, the windows are made of glass, the door to the vault has a turning wheel and all the “coins” are individually cut. I don’t know how long it too Matt to make the model, all i know he did an outstanding job.
Graffiti Covered Building in New York
This graffiti covered building is located in New York along the route of train 7 which goes from Flushing to Times Square. The artists did a great job on this building, it looks amazing. The sign on the door says you can only paint on this building if you get a permit so I’m guessing this was a project by graffiti artist to paint the whole building or something like that.
