a Cart from Scratch


The simple popsicle cart. Here is the mostly finished body, achieved by cutting a couple of popsicle sticks into vaguely similar lengths. Wood glue was used to glue the popsickles togethor. The chassis and penny wheels were hot glued. The next step was to cover the ugly penny wheel. This was achieved by cutting thin cardboard similar to cereal box cardboard into penny size circles (the cardboard used was from GB plastic vikings' box). After the circle has been cut make columns by dragging a pen with a metal tip in vaguely even intervals.

Glue the cardboard to the pennies.

The (extremely complicated) underside.

The cart was sprayed dark brown and given a lazy tan dry brush that went along the wood grains, as well as the top edges of the cart's popsickle sticks. EASY cart.

GW bits glued to pennies and based and a woodchip with a sword glued to it (the sword in the stone). Still contemplating frostgrave........
