With this Art Attack you can create a weird abstract person using a sweet box!
You will need:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This kind of chocolates box is perfect for this Art Attack. You or someone else you know might have got one for a birthday... |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Take a wax crayon or oil pastel and turn the box into a jazzy dude's body by
drawing on a suit jacket. This one is double breasted with a wide lapel and two lines of buttons. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can also add on a shirt, collar and tie. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
When you're happy with your design, you can paint it. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
When the paint is dry, you'll be able to see the wax design through the paint. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then add a white shirt and pick out some of the details. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
A correction pen works really well for this. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
You could also add in some white pinstripes! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
For arms, cut out long thin triangles from black card and, again, add on some white pinstripes. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Bend each one in the middle for an elbow and again at the top for a hand. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Add on a little bit of glue to the fat end and stick it to the shoulder of your
jacket. 17:30 08/05/2006Do the same for the other arm. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
For a hat, cut a diamond shape out of thin, black card and glue it to the top of the box for the hat's brim. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
For the main part of the hat, cut two triangles from black card and add a white stripe to one edge of each. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then, on just one of the triangles, from the edge of the white stripe, cut a slot just off centre. You don't have to be too precise about this! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now you can slot the two triangles together! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you run a bit of glue along the edges, you can stick it to the brim to complete the hat. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Finally, the feet are two more card triangles with white, gangster style shoes
painted on. Just glue them to the underneath of the box. |

|
|
A real jazzy dude! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
You don't have to make them black and white. Try other colours and see what happens... |
|
|
|
|
|
|
This one is more of a summer dude! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
And this one's a posh dude! Try it yourself! |
